her object.
The furnishing of dining room Is
easy. All you need is a rug on the
floor, a dining table and chairs to
match. There will be a cabinet for
fancy china, sideboard for service
able dishes and glassware, and plate
rail to display decorative porcelain.
You cannot vary the furnishing Of
dining rooms except in details, but
there are great opportunities to en-.
courage individual tastes in the large
front room.
A bungalow which has an elegant
appearance from the street is much
sought after by prospective builders.
This design may be built on a rather
narrow lot, because 1t is only rs feet
wide on the ground. OF course, allow
ance must be made for the dining room
projection, also the box window In
the front bedroom, as well as the wide
overhang of the roof.
Bungalows all require wide cornice
projections which take up more room
on the lot than the foundation. The
superstructure is really more promi.
nent, because 1t stands up in plain
sight 1t is not sufficient simply to
place the building far enough within
lot lines so that the drip from the
roof escapes the next door neighbor

Odd in trim, but exceptionally neat
and pleasing in appearance is this
beautiful five-room bungalow. The
size is 81 feet inches by 40 feet 6
inches on the ground, but it has an
overhang of nearly four feet.
1t is known and spoken of as the
prettiest bungalow in town, and the,
owner admits that there may be some
truth In the statement.
The cobblestone porch abutments,
porch stair walls, piers and chimney
are prominent features of the exte.
rior decoration scheme, but the shin
gle siding, the wide projection of cor
nice, and the shape of the roof all
help. There are differences among
the windows that vary the window
proposition and help to keep up inter-
est. The different parts of the house
are not made all in one mold as for
merly, but the general design is ad-
hered to. without repetition. In this
window scheme there are single win
dows, double windows, and one frame
holds FIVE two-sash windows separated
only by the sash-weight boxes, but ev-
cry window in the house Is bordered
around with the same plain white
casing.
There also is similarity in glaz-
ing, but 1t is difficult to find two win
dows that are exact duplicates of each
other. There is general combination
of large lights in the lower sash and
small lights in the upper sash, but
they all fit into the perspective to
take their proper place in the COM
plete picture.
There is considerable width to the
front steps and the front walk. The
front door also belongs to the new
wide order of house building, which
means that broader ideas have pre-

ally all town lots have considerable
depth. 1t is seldom that builder
is called upon to restrict operations at
the rear of house. except to curtail
expenses. For this reason usually a
house may have considerable depth
without affecting its appearance on q
lot. But 1t often happens that the
property Is ruined by selecting house
too wide for the lot. Such building OPP
on both sides. The selecting of the
profile and the fitting of the plan to
lot requires more careful study than
the plan ITSELF
In designing this plan, especial at
tention has been given to the living
rooms. The two bedrooms and the
bathroom occupy very little space. for
the reason that little time is spent In
these rooms compared with the long
hours in what are generally designated
as the living rooms"
The two bedrooms. with the bath
room between. are very conveniently
arranged. There is an extra door
Ieaoing from the parlor into the front
bedroom. for the reason that some
families would furnish this little room
as den. The extension window in
this front bedroom may be used as a
recess to hold folding bed-one OF

There is good deal to the work
shop end of this little bungalow, which
commences in the planning of the
back entry by making room for the ice
box to keep the ice man, with his
muddy boots. off from the nice clean
kitchen floor.
The kitchen is large for bungalow

vailed all through the house, from the
basement to the attic.
Old houses had narrow windows and
2 by s doors. Many OF them had outside
blinds to shut out the light and sun
shine, SO the carpets wouldn't fade.
but we have discarded the carpets, be-
canse we preferred good health. The
new floors are kiln-dried, SO the sun
and daylight do not affect them. The
few floor rugs We have are better
made. and dyed in fast colors. because
the art of dyefng has improved along
with the general order Of house build
ing and house furnishing.
We now provide heating plants to
warm the whole house, so that our
wives and daughters have discarded
their heavy underwear and thick dark
dresses. We prefer to see them look
pretty in short sleeves and fiimsy
dresses In the winter the same as In
summer. Improvement In dressing is
due to the Improvement In house
building and heating.
This bungalow is built with good
basement. having a ceiling feet 6
inches in height on purpose to &C
commodate modern warm-air fur
mace that requires considerable head
room to work properly. We build a
basement and install furnace In or
der to keep every room in the house
the same temperature all through the
day and evening. The windows are
always left open in warm house, SO
that the air is pure and the children
are free from nasty colds.
The front parlor in this bungalow
is a grand room. 1t is "a by IL feet
in size, with light on three sides. and
1t is literally lighted, too.
Such large windows interfere with
natures plan to keep q house dark
and gloomy in the fall. They also
interfere with the placing Of large
articles of furniture against the walls.
The modern idea Is to make living
rooms big enough to place the furni-
ture out into the middle of the room.
A very satisfactory arrangement il
to place a big davenport facing the
open fire. Back of the davenport a
group of easy chairs may be arranged
in sociable positions. II there Is a
parlor table 1t Is showed into the
darkest corner of the room. where

SOUTHERN NEVADA NEVER
BEFORE so ACTIVE

Returning this week from the
Good Springs district, J. B. Jensen,
a Salt Lake engineer, reports that
never before has there been so much
mining activity in southern Nevada.
This m~ineraliZed zone is approx
mately 20 miles long by eight miles
wide. Right now practically every
group of claims has been working.
One estimate is that 10 to 100 diff
ferent properties are today employ
ing from a lew to as many as 90
men. Several hundred men are en-
ployed over the various mineral hills.
The Yellow Pine mine is employ
ing so to 90 men and shipping stead
lily. The Alice is shipping a car of
zinc ore and a car of copper ore. The
Sultan is employing 10 to IL men
and is shipping high grade zinc ore.
Leasers recently took it over and in
ten days had out the first carload of
high grade ore. The Hoodoo on the
west side has started up. The
Frederickson has erected a 5O-ton dry
concentration. 1t is turning out a
lead-zinc product. The now famous
Boss platinum mine is employing a
force of IL to Is men. 1t produces
some copper ore as well. The
Monte Cristo is shipping regularly.
These are mentioned as only a few
of the active properties. - Herald

specimens from the new strike which
show free gold and which assay $3.50
per ton from surface rock. The
Willow Creek Gold Mining company
has been steadily developing its
property for the past two years, dur
ing which time it shipped much high

agement has been confined to regu-
lar development work. A main work
ing shaft is now being sunk near
the vein which is down so feet. 1t
will be continued to a depth of 2OO
feet, when a crosscut will be run to
strike the lead at that depth. A
working tunnel has been driven IN
on the lead for a distance of 200
feet, which shows vein matter and
ore for the entire distance.
Mr.. Pappas will be accompanied
back to the mines Sunday next by
