For this reason the buffet sideboard
is built against the back end of the
dining room to avoid any unnecessary
obstruction in the main part of the
room. The living room and dining
room are both made especially light
and airy by two triple windows and
three single windows. The present
fashion is to have plenty of light in
the living rooms, and it is a good
fashion that should remain in vogue
for the next thousand years. The his
tory of house windows reads wider
with each century.
An interesting feature of this house
is the tanner in which the stairway is
built. To commence with, there is a
grade entrance at the side of the
house which leads down into the cellar
and up into the kitchen, a combination
that is used in a great many modern
houses. The same economy of space
and travel is employed in the stairway
to the second floor and to the attic. It
doubles back from a landing halfway
between floors. The landing is pro-
vided for by an extension built as q

Avoid contact with manure, which
should never be fresh and had better
be plowed in the previous season or
in the fall.
Occasionally restore potash to the

Plant in burrows three to five
inches deep, according to the size of
the corms, and the quality of the soil,
and at intervals of, say, two weeks,
from the time the ground will work

By this means and by the differ

may be had from July until hard

ground be kept stirred and mellow

space saver to give plenty of length
of stair run with wide treads and easy
risers. The extension also contains
windows to light the stairway, and as
it is artistically designed it adds to
the general appearance of this side
of the house.
A study of the second-f1oor plan will
show that every square foot of floor
space works to advantage. There are
four bedrooms and our clothes closets
all arranged on straight lines without
shutting the light from any window
and without any useless corners. Such
a splendid arrangement of rooms is
considered quite a triumph of skill on
the part of an architect.
There is practically no wall space in
the upper hallway; it is all taken up

room, although the two small linen
closet doors open into the hallway.
The attic is of use only for storage
purposes and for the drying of clothes
IN stormy washdays. For this reason
there is a sensible stairway leading up
to the attic and a door at the foot
which closes it off from the rest of
the house.
It is necessary to have a good wide
lot for a house built after this design
to show it to advantage. On general
principles a full two-story square
house may be put on a smaller lot than
a wide spreading or squatty building,
but any, good dwelling deserves room
enough to look right. When buying a
lot for a home or planning a house for
a lot already purchased it is well to
keep in mind that any house looks
best when it fits the lot.
The lawn around a good full two
story house requires different treat
ment from a low dwelling with an
overhanging roof. Shrubbery and vines
are needed for the proper finish OF
any dwelling and room for these

Probably the most economical house
design for the nothern sections of the
country is a square-built two-story
house with a good basement. 1t is a
good sensible way to build and it
solves the heating problem in winter
with greater satisfaction than any
other style of house known to the
American builder.
The principle Of the circulation of
warm air applies splendidly in a COM
of hot air is to rise, because hot air
is lighter than cold air. In applying
this principle the cold air is taken in
from outside through the cold air boxes
and is sent through the furnace to the
rooms on the first floor during the
whole "a hours. The upstairs regis
ters usually are closed during the
daytime in cold weather because the
surplus heat from the first floor finds
it's way to the upper rooms through
the stairway. The upper rooms are
also warmed to a certain degree
through the floors. This is written with
a warm air furnace in mind. The same
principle applies to a certain extent
when the hot water system of heating
is employed.

than from any other flower. AS a cut
flower, nothing but the expensive or
child lasts so long and no other flower
has such variety and beauty of color
ing.
Nevertheless, the modern gladiolus
Is almost unknown to a large majority
of our people, because of the great i'm
provement which has been made il a
comparatively short time.
The gladiolus is p~ropagated by di-
rect multiplication, by cormels and by
seeds. The CORN planted dies at the

"ExPEDIENT THAT GO AWAY"
Henry Drummond's Beautiful Idea Of
the Thoughts of Jesus at the
Grave of Lazarus.

One day when Jesus was in Perea,
q message came to him that a very
dear friend was sick. He lived in a
distant village with his two sisters.
They were greatly concerned about
their brothers illness, and had sent in
haste for Jesus. Now Jesus loved
Mary, and Martha, and Lazarus their
brother; but he was SO situated at
the time that he could not go. Per-
haps he was too busy, perhaps he had
other similar cases on hand; at all
events, he could not go. When he
went ultimately, it was too late. Hour
after hour the sisters waited for him.
They could not believe he would not
come; but the slow hours dragged
themselves along by the dying mans
couch, and he was dead and laid in
the grave before Jesus arrived. You
can imagine one of his thoughts, at
least, as he stands and weeps by that
grave with the inconsolable sisters

SHADE TREES FOR BEAUTY
Rv ]. w. GRIFFIN.

In selecting a list of trees to plant
for shade on your lawn or along the
avenue or near the house. make a
note of the character Of the soil and
plant accordingly.
If you are planning a home in the
lowlands, where it is damp and where
fogs hang on the better part of the
morning, "cut it out" sell out, get out,
do anything to get out, and go UP
higher if possible.
Leave the swampy lands to the
frogs and mosquitoes and the feyers.
Make a note of the trees on the
hillsides and those that grow on the
hilltops. Pick out those that hold
their foliage longest, also those whose
foliage is healthiest and most dense.

have it that the following gives good
results: Where the trees to be set
out are larger than two or three year
old trees, l dig a hole four feet wide
each way and two feet deep some time
during the late fall or early winter.
The top soil is thrown on one side,
the subsoil on the other.
The combined actions of the rain,
freezing and thawing, produce a good
effect on the soil thrown out, and upon
the sides of the hole.
The trees to be set out are pro-
cured during the fall and are heeled

WATER PLANTS PLENTIFULLr

When you water plants, soak them
and have done with it. 1t is the little
dabs of water all the time that do the
mischief. Out of doors it doesn't rain
every few minutes, but when it does it
soaks them and then stops.
Morning is the best time to water
the plants. Stand the pots in a tub
of water deep enough to reach almost
to the rim of the pot. When the soil
turns black on top take them GU and
drain.-L. o. B.

IN THE GARDEN

Do not make the mistake of planting
magnolias in the autumn. Where they
thrive there is nothing more snowy
than the Chinese varieties. The flow
ers appear about the same time as the
crocuses and tulips in the spring. The
spring is a better time for planting.
Do not permit any weeds to go to
seed. Better not allow the seed pods
to form. Go carefully over the garden
these fall days and clear out every
weed. Will save lots of trouble next
season.
Destroy the webs of the fall web

in a protected place and are ready at
any time they are wanted. A few days
of sunshine and windy weather in
early spring put the mounds OF earth
beside the holes in fine shape to put
in around the trees.
The trees may be set out two or
three weeks before the surrounding
soil will do to cultivate.
First, .strawy manure is tramped six
inches deep in the bottom of the holes,
then about six inches of the top soil
is thrown in, leaving a little mound
in the center of the hole upon which
the center or taproot should rest.
The finer or side roots are spread
out around the little mound, more OF
the top soil is thrown in and packed
tightly around the roots, filling up all
air spaces and holding them in proper
place.
Next, some rotten straw, not ma
nure, is thrown in, then the rest Of
the soil is tramped well around the
trees. l do not use any manure next
to the roots of the trees. The manure
is scattered around the trees, the
rain takes the fertility down to the
roots and the solid matter, while rot
ting serves as a mulch.
The above method, if closely fol-
lowed, will take a tree through the
first summer, which is the most crit
ical part of the life of a tree.
