Napolson,a Vain Effort.

One hundred years ago Napoleon
found himself face to face with the
allied army under Prince Swartzen-
berg. The encounter took place be.
tween the towns of Troyes and Arcis.
The meeting was something of sur
prise to the French, for they had not
expected to come up with the enemy
so soon. Neither were they prepared
to find the foe so numerically strong.
The first charge of the Russian cav
airy threatened Napoleon's person,
and a Polish battalion had scarcely
time to form in square for his protec-
ton. A few minutes afterward a
she'll fell at his feet and severely
wounded his horse. The French SOL
diers, though only one against three,
fought everywhere with prodigious
valor, but all their efforts could only
succeed in rendering the result doubt.

tarIly the onward march of the In
vaders.

where around $1,000 to $1,000, under
favorable conditions of the market
for materials and labor. The interior
of the house, for instance, where most
of the money in building is usually
spent, can be simplicity itself. The
ceilings can be beamed, and the sides
of the walls finished with panels or
with wainscoting and vanished or
stained.
AS for the exterior, the design is ad-
mirably adapted to being finished with
cement stucco. On the sheathing, tar
paper should be tackled; and over this,
Turing strips nailed. Then either
expanded metal OF wooden lath can
be used. Two coats will be required.
The first or scratch coat may be a
mixture Of lime or cement mortar con-
tanning plenty of hair, and should be
pressed well through so as to give a
good bond where wood lath is used
or to completely embed the metal
where metal lath is employed. Before
this coat is dry, it should be scratched
to make holding surface for the ce-
ment mortar that is to be the finish
coat. This coat can be applied to bring
out any desired finish One of the most
popular finishes in cement stucco is
called the slap-dash finish. 1t Is ap-
piled by being thrown on with a
trowel. 1t makes a rough finish, most
attractive. Pebble-dash Is a cement
mortar containing small pebbles, and
is similarly applied.

Can you imagine yourself far from
the madding crowd" living in bun
galow like this, with never a care or
. thought except the comfortable ex-
ertion of breathing the pure air from
the fields or the woods? To suggest
this to the tired city dweller who is
Gagged in a fiat may seem cruel, yet
even he or she hopes some time to
live amid such surroundings. bun
galow like this fills the day dreams
of thousands Of people who are able to
keep up their ambition by the hope
of some time being far away from the
scenes of confusion and hustle that
tax the nerves and the strength.
Now, to come down out of the clouds
to more practical things.\ The plan of
this bungalow, you will observe, is
simplicity itself. There is more porch
than house. And while there are only
three rooms, we shall see how roomy
the structure can be made. The porch
extends all around the house, with
steps on each of the four sides. This
porch is feet inches wide At a
very small expense, the open spaces
between the pillars of the porch can
be screened in, and screen doors pro.
vided at the entrances. Divisions or
partitions Of tapestry can thus divide
the entire porch into outdoor bed
rooms. Privacy or protection against
beating rains or sunshine can be pro-
vided by the placing of canvas shades
on rollers at the openings.
This plan is an ideal conception in
tended for the man or woman who
wants to live outdoors. In fact, 1t
Is a compromise between the out

doors and the indoors. The side of
the porch adjacent to the kitchen. for
instance, can be utilized as an out
door dining room; and If all the re-
naming porch space is not needed for
bedrooms, 1t can be set aside for other
purposes. The building itself is "a
feet square, and the porches added
make it "a feet 3 inches square. The
living room, provided with window
seats, as the plan shows, and CHEEKY
fireplace for use In cold weather or on
rainy days, is 16 feet inches long and
10 feet inches wide. The kitchen is
10 feet long and 9 feet wide. The sin
gle bedroom is 10 feet long and feet
wide. A closet is provided off the
bedroom, and pantry Of ample size

quarters, this room can be used as a
den or as a nursery.
People today have come to realize
the value and hyglenic necessity of
plenty of fresh air. This has come
about through long education. The
fresh-air cure for consumption is even
now established as fact, and camps
are maintained in many parts Of the
country for the treatment of this dis
ease by the fresh-air method. Il is
needless to say that no member of a
family living in bungalow like this
will ever need treatment for that
dread disease. The open window at
night is the greatest safeguard against
disease. 1t is in the winter when the
windows are closed, shutting out the
pure air. that most ailments are con-
tracted.
