peculiar mental process by which peO-
pie can deliberately set themselves to
work to shut out their greatest neces-
sity. have acQuaintances who never
open window if they can help it. I
notice they usually open their pocket
books every little while to pay a doc
tors bill There is, however, no law
to compel them to breathe pure air if
they don't want tc.
Another point of superiority about
this house is the arrangement of the
dining room. china closet, pantry and
kitchen. 1t would be difficult to in
vent an arrangement better than this
for a woman who does her own work
There is, in addition, a good closet off
the dining room, to hold a hundred
things which a woman likes to have
sight. The fine large dining room
window is good place, for example.
for the sewing machine, but a woman
does not care to store sewing ma
| chine in tha dining room. With the
arrangement here given, the machine
/ can easily be wheeled into the closet
and left there until wanted next time.
A built-in back porch that can easily
be screened against flies and mos
quitoes is another very good feature.
It is impossible to keep flies out of the
kitchen when they are gathered in
multitudes on the back porch. A
screen door is not sufficient. 1t is diff.
ficult and expensive to screen some
porches, but this one is an exception.
Screening csh be done SO easily that
there is no excuse for leaving the
porch open as an invitation for flies
and mosquitoes.

placed in some inconvenient corner
just because that happens to be fad.
Some of the peculiar structures that
are now being built will be considered
freaky and undesirable in few years
time. They may look very pretty
when new, and the oddities worked in
to them may appeal for a time to GER
tain young folk who think they want
something smart or little different
from the ordinary; but such people
usually acknowledge after a while that
they made mistake in selecting the
house plan they did
One of the most desirable features
In this house is the two open fire
places-one in the living room and the
other in the dining room. 1t is intend
ed, of course. 10 heat the house with
a small furnacein the cellar; but there
are many days in the spring and fall
when we do not want furnace fire,
and yet the house is too chilly and un-
comfortf BILE without some artificial
heat. Then. too, there is a saving in
the winter time by running the fur.
mace low and having a CRATE fire to
keep one room warm enough to sit
in A temperature of go or 65 is warm
enough for the whole house if you
have the dining room or living room
heated up to about 72. By managing
this way, probably ton of coal would
be saved during the winter.

Almost perfect as regards comfort
and economy Is the little house illus
trated in the perspective view and
floor plans herewith. It is a six-room
house 81 feet wide by 38 feet long, ex-
elusive of the porch. 1t would be diff
cult to put the same amount of build
ing material together in any other
form to make such perfect arrange
ment Of rooms, and not exceed in cost
the amount of money that this house
can be built for. Prices vary so much
In different parts of the country that
1t is impossible to make an estimate Of
cost which will apply to every loca-
ton; but a range varying from $1,400
to $1,700 may be given as rough es-
innate for this cosy little cottage.
The tastes of individuals in selecting
materials has great deal to do with
the cost of house-in quality of fin
ish and hardware. The cost of extra
fine locks and hinges is not SO much
in itself; but if the same grade Of fur
nishing is carried throughout there
will be great difference in the final
| footing up of the bill. We have all
heard of the story about the man who
was ruined by pair of lace curtains.

curtains would not look right. 1t

Governor Tener of Pennsylvania the
new president of the National league,
said at a baseball banquet in New
York:
Success in baseball depends on
preparation, on training. They who
fail in baseball have either been slack
in their preparation, or else they have
prepared, like Jethro Higgins OF Con-
shohocken, in the wrong way.
The minister, you know, came to
Jethro's house one afternoon to a
christening party-he was to christen
Jethro's little son, Jeth, Jr.
"'Jethro.' said the minister, solemn
ly, taking his host aside before the
ceremony; 'Jethro, are you prepared
for this solemn event"

Young Lady sociologIst Picked Out

The man thought he was protect

of fact, he was proving that he had
once been a counterfeiter himself.
1T reminds me Of the young lady
sociologist who went to see a white
slave play in New York. She was sep

young lady sociologist, by two rows,

Recoonize Equality of Women.

In the Pacific ocean, far beyond
China and Japan, lie the only two
countries in the world which fully ac-
knowledge the equality of men and
women by giving political rights to
all citizens of twenty-one, regardless
of sex They are New Zealand and
Australia.
New Zealand was the first by a
dozen years to put her daughters on
a suffrage equality with her sons. 1t
was in 1867 that the cry was raised,
"Shall our mothers, wives and sisters
have suffrage?"
The answer was given in 1893 by the
full enfranchisement of women. In
Australia the chance came more grad
ually, province by province. But few
years ago the final concession was
made, and now Australian women, like
their sisters of New Zealand, are the
equals in this way of their husbands,
brothers and sons.

The Movies In, History.

One of the good uses for moving
picture films is for recording historic
events. Not long ago the king of
Roumania ordered the production of a
film of no less than 5000 yards length,
this being reproduction of the Rou-
manian-Russo-Turkish war, which de-
termined the independence of that
country The film will be kept in the
archives of the realm In order to
carry this out the army lent 5000
men in uniform with arms and bag
gage, led by the officers. Another
case is that of the Italian government,
which is collecting all the films taken
during the war in Tripol;. In England
the same thing is done for the films
OF the kings coronation events.

Sir William Ramsey, speaking at
St. Bride institute recently on spell
ing reform, said it was pity that we
had not from the beginning adopted
the Chinese system of writing, instead
of our own.
The Chinese did not spell; they
used symbols which conveyed ideas.
The Chinese language had the great
advantage that it could be read much
quicker than any spelled language. 1t
went straight from the symbol to the
brain as an idea.
