The roof and walls are finished in
shingles stained a dark color in the IL
lustration, but If it is desired, the walls
may be finished in dark-cOlored stucco.
This finish gives very good satisfaction
since it is now possible to color the
stucco by either a mixture of the color
ing with the material when the house
is being constructed, or one of the
stucco paints may be used, which will
also serve as a waterproofing material.
It is desirable to finish the walls in
some dark color in this design on ac-
count of the pleasing contrast with
the white trim of the windows and
roof On account Of the large num-

WHY Children Like Candy.

Children like candy because of its
properties of sugar. a food quickly abb
sorbed by the human system. The
purpose of all food is to supply the
energy that is wasted by physical ex-
ertion. Some foods more than others
contain the elements necessary to fur
nish this supply and vary in the time
required to feel their benefits.
Sugar is actually turned into real
energy within a few minutes after it
is eaten and candy gives a quick sup
ply of the energy called for by the ac-
tivities of youth. Thus the constant
need of energizing force by children
leads them instinctively to crave can

it would be difficult indeed for the de-
tenders to reply to the overwhelming
intensity of the fire that would be
opened upon the house SO soon as day
light should come.
While Kynaston was cudgeling his
brains to find some solution to the
problem he saw old Wilkes pottering
about the house, carefully gathering
up all the empty tin cans. These the
old man strung on a piece of rawhide
that had been brought to the house to
be made into lariat. His curiosity
thoroughly aroused, Kynaston asked:
What are you doing with that,
Mr.. Wilkes?"
Cant git no mule-bells," said the
old man sententiously; they're all in

To the small town or village resi-
dent the bungalow offers its advan-
tages at their best. This type of con
struction is never so well exhibited as
where the prices of land are indueive
to the purchase of a large piece of
land on which to build. Here the
bungalow may be designed to carry
out the low, broad lines which are so
attractive in this type of construction
and with well-laid-out lawn the re-
snlting home is one which anyone may
be proud to exhibit to his friends.
The design shown here is intended
to incorporate as much of the truly

Thirty-eight years ago when Charles
WAGNER first saw the light of day in
Pittsburgh, he was presented with a
ten-dollar gold piece by a fond reIa-
tive. And when he budded into man.
hood he carried the coin wrapped ND
in paper. He made a vow that he
never would spend the money, but
keep it as token Of remembrance of
the giver. His one consolation was.
Il am ten bucks to the good as long

against him. He was down at the heel
and out at the sole and the inner man
was rebelling. So he concluded to
part with the coin. But he didn't.
He still possesses it. The reason is
the coin is a counterfeit. Now
wouldn't that jar you," said WAGNER.

To EmpIov Efficiency Exnert.

An experienced business organizer
is to be secured to study the Industrial
Commission and make recommends
tions for improving the work. This
agreement was reached after a con-
ference between the Commissioners
and Edward A Deeds, of Dayton, and
Samuel P Bush, of Columbus, mem
bers of the Advisory Committee Of the
State Civil Service Commission The
Civil Service Commission, whose eff
cheney department has made lot of
radical recommendations for reorgan-
ization that had been branded as un-
workable by the members of the COM
mission, was not represented. The sug-
gestion was made by Bush, who said
his experience with the Industrial
Commission had shown him it was a
hard-working body; that work was
done speedily, and that it did have, a
commendable degree of efficiency.
The Department of Public Printing
