three little vertical panels of plato
glass, and passes through the house to
the handy rear porch.
The living room is large enough to
entertain several guests. 1t extends
across the entire width of the house
and is lighted through six windows. A
fancy balustrade with two square
posts is built along the side of the
staircase leading to the upper floor.
The staircase is directly in front Of
the door opening from the front porch.
A brick fireplace is set into the wall
at the end of the room to the left Of
this entrance. In the corner of the
house next to the fireplace is a handy
bookcase built beneath q fancy glass
window. A larger window is situated
on the other side of the fireplace. The
dining room is entered through a
cased opening fianked with bookcases.
A three-window bay Is built into the
wall of the dining room and a buffet is
set against the inside wall. The room
is square, which is the best shape
for dining room, since there is plenty
Of space on all sides of the table
when 1t is placed In the center Of the
room. The kitchen is in the rear Of
the dining room and may be entered
through a swinging door.
The ability of the architect is ably
illustrated in the arrangement of the
kitchen. Every convenience Of light
and airy kitchen, carefully planned
pantry and a breakfast porch are
here combined in one room. A table
in which the sink is set runs along
the side wall, with window above II.
One cupboard is located conveniently
across the dividing wall between the
kitchen and the dining room. and an
other is built into the outside corner
above the space occupied by the re-
frigerator. Across the room is a little
breakfast-nook table with a seat built
on each side. This little table will
save many steps In serving breakfast
and will commend itself In many other
ways. There is ample room for a
stove against the inside wall.
Another feature which will find IA
vor with most people is the bedroom
and toilet on the first fcor. These
rooms are entered from a hall leading
toward the rear Of the house. past the
stair, from the living room. This hall
is also connected with q side entry by
n flight Of four steps. The basement
is reached from this entry.
There are two large bedrooms and
a sleeping porch, which Is really an
other bedroom having practically one
entire side built Of windows. on the
second floor. A hall connects them
all and also leads to the bathroom.
The front dOrmer bedroom is an espe-
cially pleasant room, having Eve case
ment windows under two OF which
seats are built

on edge. The two heavy porch col.
umns are plastered from the top of the
rail up to the roof, and these are
capped, in balance with the rail, by
single course of brick on edge. The
outside-built chimney, in carrying out
the idea established in the porch de-
sign, is built of brick cap at the top.
The roof has a graceful slope, which
is swung out over the porch In
broad curve. The wide expanse Of
roof is broken by the formers, which
are very artistlcally designed. The
ends of all rafters are exposed and
unique touch is added in the use Of
heavy exposed purlins, built up of
three lengths Of timber, under the

There are few people who do not de-
sire an air of cOziness in their home
that suggestion of snugness which
seems a part of the little bungalow
and extends an invitation to all who
pass by to come into the little home
where comforts are provided In every
nook and corner. This quality seems
to be always associated with q small
home, and those who must have a
larger house are often led to discard
their desire in this direction and CEN
ter their attention on arrangement Of
rooms only.
Perhaps the arrangement of rooms
is of initial Importance in planning a
house, since the family will naturally
derive the greatest benefits from hv-
ing In it rather than standing on the
outside where they can enjoy the out

more than one reason why the home
builder should expect the architect to

Mary Page, actress, is accused of the murder of David Pollock and is defended by her lover Philip Lang don. Pollock was intoxicated. At Mary's trial she admits she had the revolver. Her maid testiies that Mary threatened Pollock with it pre- viously and Mary's leading man inn p1icates Langdon. How Mary dis appeared from the scene of the crime is a mystery. Brandon tells of strange hand print he saw on Marys shoulder. Further evidence shows that horror of drink produces tenn porary insanity in Mary. The de- fenes is "repressed psychosis."

Tn a city where I sometimes visit there lives a young man With deep interest in local politics.
 For various reasons it is impossible for him to accept office himself, but he has given time. money and energy to help elect good men to the city government.
 I admire this man.

REAL OLD TIME MELO-
 DRAMA AT LYCEUM

There Is real !melodrama at the Lyceum this week, with all the old tune heart thrObs and SighS, the shadows and the sunlight, the self sacrifice and the heartlessness of the william thrown and balanced ore against the other. "Tess of the Storm Country,'' the four-act play from the pen of Rupert Hughes has all these things embodied in it.
 Miss Julie Herne as the little mountain girl is seen at her best. In the first act she is discovered as a little barefoot girl, with frayed cloth ing and beautiful golden tresses In the last act she has donned the even- ing dress of milady at the ball but she still retains the ear-marks of her fathers domain,-his rubber boots. This indeed is a strange contrast, beautiful silken ballroom gown over rubber boots.
 Perhaps the most striking scene in the entire play is the famous little church in the mountains where the young minister holds services. It is worth going many miles to see Alfred Cross ascend the pulpit and conduct services, with the congregation join ing in the hymn and the organist pumping away with all the vigor of musician entering into rhapsody.
 There are great chances for scenic effect in this play that depicts life on the shores of Lake Cayuga, New York, where the squatters hold forth and Kendall Weston and his able scenic artist, Maurice Futile, have lost none of the opportunities. The first act, a scene in early Summer is beautiful in the extreme. With the | leaves from the trees artistically scattered around and the lake in the background it has the power to carry the spectator to the land of dreams.

 Before Gallipoli was evacuated the planting of wattle trees around the burial mounds had already been de- cided on, and a quantity Of young trees were sent from Australia for this purpose. The withdrawal Of the British troops stopped the project.
 The Wattle trees are now being trended in Egypt, pending the time when they can be planted in their ap- pointed place.
