sleeping porcnes are becoming more
and more ponuIar

and more popular.
The exterior of this home is fin
ished in shingles, and all the trim is
in white to harmonize with porch and
other exterior decorative features.
The floor plan shows five rooms, ex-
elusive Of the sleeping porch. that are
well arranged for convenience and
usefulness. The living room extends
across the front OF the house and
illustrates one of the methods of OBJ
tanning a good-sized room in mar
row house that is suited particularly
for narrow, deep lot. 1t is made
bright and cheerful by the windows
placed on three sides of the room
There are two wide windows facing
out on to the porch and also two
small windows on each side of the
fireplace. In the end OF the room OPP
posite the fireplace there is also q
wide window. In room that is much
longer than 1t is wide, the fireplace
is generally located in one end OF the
room. though sometimes a different
arrangement Is used. In this case
the brick fireplace is at one end and
is fianked on either side by bookcases
which are placed under the small win
dows. The big brick fireplace makes
this room unusually coy and cheer
full, due to the lcng, narrow character
of the room.
Back of the living room is the dining
room. Along its outside wall is
square bay of three windows with a
hv.1et built in front of It. The dining
room is connected to the living room
by wide cased opening.
The kitchen, pantry, and back porch
are back of the dining room. The
kitchen is fairly small compact room
with pantry built in the back.
One of the greatest objections to
flats is the lack of privacy due to the
elimination OF all halls The home
shown here is arranged so that all the
rooms are readily accessible and at
the same time privacy is insured. This
Is due largely to the small han that
runs between the bedrooms, with
doors into each one and also doors
into the bathroom, the kitchen, and
the dining room. After a few doors
are closed the bedrooms are cut or
from the rest of the house and at the
same time they can be easily reached.

case 1t is the greatest factor in dress

A GLASS OF SALTS WILL

Says Drugs Excite Kidneys and Rec.

II Bladder Bothers You.

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract
Keep your kidneys clean like you keep
your bowels clean by flushing them
with mild. harmless salts which re-
moves the bodys usinous waste and
stimulates them to their normal activ-
ity. The function of the kidneys is to
filter the blood. In "a hours they
strain from it 500 grains of acid and
waste, so we can readily understand
the vital Importance Of keeping the
kidneys active.
Drink lots of water--you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take tablespoonful in glass Of
water before breakfast each morning
for few days and your kidneys will
act fine This famous salts is made
from the acid Of grapes and lemon
Juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to clean and
stimulate clogged kidneys; also to
neutralize the acids in urine SO 1t no
longer is source OF irritation, thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot In
jure; makes delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep
their kidneys clean and active. Try
this, also keep UP the water drinking,
and no doubt you will wonder what
became Of your kidney trouble and

A number Of new commercial enter.

in northeast Siberia. Many iodine
works have been established in the
neighborhood of vladivostok, on the
shore of the Japanese sea, the iodine
being made from seaweed found there
in abundance. An interesting distil-
lery for ether has been opened, the
bulk Of the ingredients being violets
and iris blossoms from the Ussuri
countryside. A good deal Of amber is
being collected from the beach along
the coast Of the Premorsk, and many

on the remaining 40 feet The model
to be worked to is two 40-foot road
ways, two ten-foot sidewalks and three
rows of shade trees---a most proper
plan for hot climate.
All travel of course takes the right
hand road. The grade should allow
crossing from one road to the other.
On single road with 50-foot right
of way two ten-foot sidewalks and 80
feet for vehicles, when autos are
standing at each curb there is not
room for safe passing of vehicles CO.
ing in opposite directions and this
difficulty and danger increases with
the traffic.
A single-track road should be 60
feet wide.
The middle line of new roads is gen.
orally on section line or other line
between two owners. If the fashion is
set for 100-foot right Of way owners
will give the SO feet.
If county commissioners will insist
on the 100 feet and make it state
wide rule supported by public opinion,
owners will fall into line and give the
land.
The double-road plan allows speed
with safety and the speed of motor
cars will in the future be increased
on long runs.
The point is that it is the duty OF
the pioneer road builders of today to
provide for the travel of the future.
Fifteen years ago in Chicago
street mile long between Grant and
Lincoln parks was widened from so
to 200 feet. 1t cost 100000
If the people who laid out that street
could have looked ahead the expense
would have been only the amount OF
the surveyors bill. In less degree
such things will happen some day in
Florida wherever narrow roads are
built.
California has awakened to the idea
and has some main roads 100 feet |
wide.
AS soon as Florida gets hard roads
the travel by tourists and citizens by |
motor car and motor truck will rapid !
ly increase and will grow in time to
enormous proportions.
The climate and the motor car will |
accomplish it and it is time that the
road builders awakened to these en-.
tirely new conditions. Besides the
question of safety and convenience
there is the question of beauty, OF
civic pride and the satisfaction of
building right for all time.
Road builders must realize that the
motor car has brought entirely new
conditions.
They must lay out the roads wide
enough for all time, while the land can
be got for nothing. 1t is a duty.

The bathroom is placed between the
two bedrooms, which is the best sort
OF an arrangement with a plan such
as this one.
The bungalow Is built high enough
above the ground SO that a good base
ment can be provided. BY making the
roof fairly fiat and by building over
hanging caves the bungalow effect is
not lost, though the floor is not built
near the ground level The useful
hess of the basement is increased be-
cause OF the addition of an outside
entrance, which makes the basement
much more accessible from the out
side. The outside entrance is often
demanded by people who are building
their homes.
