One of the most comfortable little
cottage houses ever built is shown
in this design. When you come to
corral all the necessary modern i'm
provements and fit them into a little
house only twenty feet in width and
thirty feet in length you have quite a
job on your hands; but that is exactly
what has been done in designing this
little i've room cottage. Bungalow"
some people would call it, because the
word bungalow is very fashionable
just now. but bungalow properly
speaking is a one story house with a
fiat, or at least a low roof.
1t often happens that family is
very anxious to own home and they
find houses and lots SO expensive that
after looking around for several
months they are obliged to give it up.
at any rate for the time being. 1t is
to meet just such cases that I recon-
mend such small low cost houses as
this.
Americans as q rule have rather
large ideas In regard to dwellings. AS
usual thing we want large rooms and
plenty Of them, but find that public
opinion is passing through change
and it has been brought about largely
through the influence Of city fats,
many of which contain little con-
veniences that are not common in
houses.
Taxes In larger cities are double
what they were ten or twenty years
ago. Skilled mechanics get four or
FIVE dollars day where formerly they
got two or three dollarsi and the
same scale Of expense follows through
all the different departments Of build.

learned how to work the necessaries
from comfort into very small compass,
together with great many luxnries; |;
and to combine the many good fea.

AS GREEK UNDERSTANDS /
Students Rendering of Shakespearean
Phrase Somewhat Literal, But
He Had the Idea.

A young Greek merchant of Wash
ineton, who has been taking lessons in
English from private tutor, has so
far advanced that his teacher recently
introduced him to the beauties-a and
perplexities of Shakespeare. He was
instructed to read a passage several
times until he had the ideas firmly
fixed in his mind and then, closing the
book, to put these ideas into his own
English, following as closely as his
memory permitted the authors text.
He had read over a soliloquy of
Othello's several times and was re
producing the Moor's somber thoughts
with pretty fair approximation to the
poets words, but when he reached the
last line: Farewell, Othello's occupa-
tion's gone!" he stopped short, utterly
at loss. The original phrasing had
quite escaped him. However, he had
grasped the idea, for after a few sec.
onds of frowning perplexity his brow
cleared
"Ah, / haf eet!" he exclaimed. "Eet

many furnaces are placed in the most
objectionable positions just because
the owners neglected to think up on
the subject before the heating plant
was installed.
1t makes no difference to furnace
man where the heater is placed except
that some pipes carry hot air better
than others; and they, should be
longer and others should be shorter
in proportion for this reason. But
such calculations apply more particu-
larry to larger houses. In a little
house like this where the pipes are all
short the furnace may be placed on
one side of the chimney just as well as
to put it on the other side. The only
question to decide is where the owner
wants it and the owner should not
only know but he should know why.

will heat this house with very little
fuel. By placing the furnace well
back the front part Of the cellar may
be partitioned off and kept cool for a
fruit cellar. The front end is proper
for this purpose because the front
part of the house usually is cooler
than the back. Then you have more
or less dust from the furnace and 1t
makes more noise sometimes than
you want under the living room.

went to America.

MAKING DEMON RUM
FIGHT AGAINST HIMSEL #
UNITED Press Day service1

Berne, Switzerland, May 12.--
Switzerland is making the Demon
Rum fight against himself. Curiously
enough, according to reports at fed
eral headquarters, large part of
the $1,400,000 obtained by the Swiss
government from its alcohol monopoly
in 1913, and which by law was dis
tributed among the various cantons,
is being used by them to combat the
spread of intemperance. In spite of
the prohibition of the sale of absinthe
throughout the country, the consump-
tion of intoxicants has been increas-
ing steadily in the past few years,
especially among the German-speak-
ing Swiss of the North, with whom
"schnaps," often sold as low as
cents a glass, is a favorite beverage.
