Floor Plan.

then, for the architect to find the prop
er combination of all the possibilities
which exist, in order to match the pic
ture formed as an image in the mind
of the home-builder.
One of the styles which have been
established in bungalow design, and
one which makes strong appeal to Il
great many people, is the rustic type.
This type embodies the infusion of the
architecture of nature into the archi-
lecture of man. 1t implies the use of
some natural building material applied
in such way that the suggestion of
the .g out-of-doors surrounds the
home. The purpose is absolutely de-
feated If such q house is built on a
narrow lot. A wide lot upon which
sufficient time and effort have been
spent to adapt 1t to the house is neces-
sary for the full realization of the adj
vantages of this design. Shrubs, vines,
trees and flower beds must be placed
with care and selected with pur-
pose to harmonize with the color
scheme of the bungalow. The rustic
bungalow is seen In its most appro-
pirate frame when IL Is placed on a
small country estate where the natural
growth of trees may be taken advan-
tage of in laying out the lawn.

lustration Is an attractive example Of
the rustic type. The architect had
found happy combination of details
in this design and the result Is shown
in both the exterior appearance and in
the arrangement of rooms. Large cob
blestone pillars give the front of the
house unique appearance. The CHM
ney carries out the idea very effec-
lively. The low roof is a combined
hip and gable type with exposed sup
ports, well adapted to this type Of
house. The pergola effect of the porch,
with the pleasing decorative ends Of
the timbers carried through the de-
sign, even to the decoration placed on
the short column at the corner CT the
house, adds great deal to the general
attractiveness of the little home. The
gable is decorated with wide boards
or siding strips which have decora-
tive design cut in each board Many
details of finish have been worked out
in a way which gives this little rustic
bungalow an appearance rather diff
ferent from the ordinary.
In the room arrangement and atten-
ton to interior details the same thor
oughncsS has been observed. The liv-
ing room is entered from the front
porch. This room has large fireplace,
thanked with bookcases, built along
the side wall. The fireplace may be
made in any way which is suited to
the style of finish that is decided upon
for this room. A very striking and
artistic effect may be secured by build
ing the fireplace Of cObblestones such
rs are used in the construction OF the
exterior chimney and pillars at the
front of the house. The combination
of the living room with the little den
is very attractive arrangement. If
the den is to be used at times as
spare Bedroom, n sliding door may be
built between it and the living room.
1t will, of course, be more attractive
with just Il cased opening between the
two rooms. The many windows in
this little nook will make it like
sun parlor and consequently part Of
the house which will, perhaps, be used
more than any other.

only reason that l did not do so on
that occasion was the fear of adding
still more unpleasant complications "
those already on hand. Finally, after
passing through the strange little grOt-
to where Mr.. Covington pointed out
the mysterious granite block he dis
covered concealed there, we reached
the grand gallery, where it was heav-
emily pleasure to once more fill our
lungs with good air.
We passed through the horizontal
gallery and entered the Queens cham
ber the lower of the two sepulchral
chambers in the Pyramid, although no
sarcophagus was found there. We no.
ticed the smooth, white, pointed roof,
which distinguishes it from the granite
Kings chamber above. This Queens
chamber contains perhaps the finest
masonry in the world, the Jennings Of
the great white limestone blocks being
almost invisible, yet they contain
thin, weblike film of white cement.
We returned once more to the grand
gallery, leading upward to the large
granite-lined room containing sar-
cophagus, supposed to be Khufu's.
This magnificent gallery, 155 feet long,
% feet high and more than feet
wide, is built of white mokattam lime
stone, so finely wrought and laid that
into the joints between the blocks it is
difficult to insert the point of needle
or even hair. Above the second
overlapping course Of stones that COM
pose the walls there is q finely cut
four-inch groove that extends right
around the entire gallery. Its use Is
unknown. Yet those ancients must
have had excellent reasons for chisel-
ing it out. Again, why?
Passing from the grand gallery
through the small, mysterious granite
antechamber, we found ourselves in
the famous superb granite Kings
chamber, the walls of which are COM
posed of just 100 blocks of red gran
lite. We were alone, and standing by
the side of the mutilated, lidless sar-
cophagus of that great Pharaoh who
reigned more than 5000 years ago.
We had the Pyramid entirely TO our
selves. 1t was long after midnight.
There was deadly silence, broken oc-
casionally by the chirp of distant

one of eerie pleasure, not unmiXed

its defiance Of time and defeat of in
quiry; its strength and beauty; it's
geometrical perfection. Then came
over the exaltation feeling OF depres-
sion as of the weight of all the super
imposed masonry above me, and upon
that the weight of centuries and Of

GETTING THE MUZZLE

! Denmark occupies position,
among all the worlds neutrals, less
difficult only than that of Greece.
, Germany covets the little northern
country; Britain regards its con-
tinued independence, as a buffer,
only less important than that of Bel
gium.
Danish diplomacy and good sense
have kept the country out of trouble
thus far; but it has been an eeuil-
ibristic feat Of the most impressive
sort.
1t is apparent, then, that the COM
ing of the harum-scarum "peace ex-
petition" from America must give
real concern to the Danish authori-
ties. The country is divided in sym
pathies, complicated with all manner
Of difficult economic relationships.
It's greatest need is to avoid every
discussion that may tend to sharpen
.acerbities and separate factions. No
body in Denmark dares feel sure what
might result from entertaining such
an impossible propaganda as the
Ford expedition. The ordered of
fetal mind of conventional European
administration cannot conceive what
this newest American marvel in
shirt-sleeve methods may signify.
The only safe thing is to apply the
muzzle; and that has been done. The
peace party is to be kept strictly
under supervision. There will be no
public meetings, and functions of
all kinds will be censored with the
utmost care.
If the United States could have
found a way to apply some of the
same precaution before the peace
ship sailed away from here, the dig
nifty and self-respect of this country
would have been distinctly enhanced.
