six-Room House With Many Special Features

items of expense which do not enter
into. the original estimate. It seems
unavoidable that the cost Of house
will be more than the estimate indi
Gates. The man who has had expert
ence in building and finishing houses
usually figures a small percentage of
the estimated investment as a reserve
to make up for items of this sort.
The. advice of the experienced to the
inexperienced builder of homes would
probably be: ''Plan a house which is
just the size you think you need and
then build it one-third smaller" The
chances are that the increased quality
of material and workmanship which
may be used in the smaller house over
what could be obtained for the same
money in the larger house, will give
the owner more satisfaction than he
could obtain from the slightly larger
rooms and the more bulky appearance.
Another thing which home builders
should think about is the expense of
finishing and furnishing the new
house. 1t is largely through the effect
of these items that the house is trans
formed into the home, although it is
necessary, of course, to incorporate the
fundamental homelike qualities into
the house itself. At any rate, a lib
eral allowance should be set aside fol
the purchase of articles of furniture

DOTTED SWISS WIDELY USED
Dearth OF Other Desirable Fabrics
Makes 1t Very Much in Evidence
in Little Girls Wardrobes.

No material lends itself more to
originality in fashioning the little
girls clothes than the dotted SWISS
And now, when there is dearth of
desirable fabrics on account of the for
eign war, dotted swiss is distinctly in
evidence. Not only is it obtainable in
white with dots of various sizes but
in a wide range of colors, from pastel
shades to vivid yellow and pink. Pale
pink, ecru, white and white with pale
blue dots are the most suitable for the
little girls wardrobe.
While the dotted swiss is most desir-
able for the little girls dress, there are
many other uses for which it is adapt
ed. For instance, ecrue swiss is most
attractive as a lining for u pongee
coat. White dotted swiss combined
with China silk also makes an effec-
tive outside garment for summer
wear.
Then, too, there are many other
ways in which the dotted swiss is
found to be a valuable factor in the
child's outfit. Cunning aprons are
made of the swiss. These aprons are
made in envelope fashion and trimmed
with a narrow edge of Valenciennes
lace.
In addition, collars suitable for wear
on coat or silk dress are made of
the swiss; sashes, bonnet strings, and
indeed, hats and bonnetS as well, are
all made from this durable material.

planning his first house is laying the
foundation of the home which will be
his most valued accomplishment, if he
builds well, through all the years of his
life. The true home starts with the
house and gradually assumes its mean

built up around it. This man who
starts with nothing but the desire to

We all know that in most cases the
surest way to spell costly when
buildings are referred to, is cheap.

correctly drawn, since planning, in the
literal sense of the word, does not re-

together in a haphazard manner, may
be seen in almost any community. The
owner of this house, when consulted
at the completion of the building op-
Grafton, talks freely of how Cheap
his house was built. Go around to him
after two years, or even less, time has
elapsed and he will readily agree that
those five letters spell word crowded
with meaning which he did not at first
associate with it.
The point is this: the average man
who has not had experience in plan.

Rats and Fires.

At a time when everyone Is COM
planning of the high cost of living it
might be well to see If we cannot elm
mate two great sources of waste-fres
and rats.
Most fires are needless. All rats
are so. Some years ago a study of the
rat problem in Philadelphia arrived at
the conclusion that the rodents Of that
city ate more than a million dollars
worth of food each year. At that rate,
the disgusting creatures can hardly
cost less than $1O0,000,000 per year
to the whole country. This is a pret-
ty high price to pay for the compan-
ionship Of impish pests which, besides
their other bad habits, undermine
1oors and carry the most dreaded Of
all diseases, bubonic plague.
Yet fires are more expensive than
rats. In 1915-the last year for which
figures are at hand-the American
people paid out in premiums for fire
Insurance $419,361, ,346. OF this vast
sum at least three-fourths could be
saved by reducing our fire record to
the rate prevailing in England, France
or Germany and even in our time and
nation S300,000.000 per year is saw
ing worth noting, and one which
would have a perceptible effect on the
cost Of living.

PARAFFIN HAS VARIOUS USES
May Be Utilized for Freshening Vel
vets as Well as Cleaning Metals
or Scrubbing Floors

When the sides of an enameled bath
or lavatory basin have gotten corrod-
ed with soapsuds, take piece of
house flannel, dip it in paraffin and rub
the whole inside of the bath with it,
and then wash it all over with soap
and warm water, and the effect is good
without the risk of injury to the paint.
A little paraffin in pail of water is
excellent for scrubbing floors clean. If
beetles or any crawling things infest
the place, the paraffin should be
stronger. 1t is one of the best pre-
ventatives against insects that there
is, indeed, only one other thing-cOm-
mon SALTS better for cleansing pur-
poses and keeping woodwork and
floors free from spiders and any of the
insects that abound during the summer
months.
When cleaning brass or metal work
of any sort, if a few drops of paraffin
are added to the metal paste, better
polish is more quickly obtained.
Paraffin may also be used as re-
storer of pale as well as black velvet
and velveteen! 1t sounds risky, but is
effective, and is done by dampening
not wetting-a piece of flannel with
paraffin and rubbing the pile of the vel
veteen quickly and lightly with it, then
Immediately rubbing it off with q
clean, dry flannel. AS soon as the
damp flannel looks dirty, clean piece
must be used. 1t takes some time to
do costume, but the result repays the
labor.

The Mannish Shirt

There are really many women who
have found that the mannish shirt is
easier and more generally suitable
than the usual sort of frilled and
tucked and lacy blouse that most wom-
en- wear. OF course, all women wear
suits nowadays and most women have
one suit at least that is cut on the reg
ulatiOn tailor style-notched collar,
belted back, long plain sleeves and
plain buttoned front. And women still
wear their suit skirts short enough to
look sensible, and there is nothing so
very unusual in seeing a woman wear
low-heeled shoes on the sports order for
the street. So looking mannish now
adays is not so very much of jump
from looking simply well dressed for
the street.

upon these posts would produce very
artistic effect. The sides of the house
are finished with beveled siding and
the window trim is a little out of the
ordinary, in keeping with other fea-
lures of exterior design.
A small vestibule is entered from the
porch, and this leads into the hall
from which the various rooms of the
first floor and the stairs to the second
floor are reached. The large living
room has fireplace set into one cor
ner. Four windows are built into the
side wall Of the house in this room, and
one large window is placed at the
front. The living room is always a
pleasure room in which the fireplace is
set into one corner, but it is seldom
that this is possible without interfer-
ing with the arrangement of some 9TH
er part Of the house.
The dining room is in the rear of the
living room. The buffet is built against
the rear wall with a wide window
above it. Four windows occupy the
side wall in this room, similar to the
arrangement in the living room. A
hall leads past the pantry to the kitch-
en-. The kitchen is fitted with a sink
set into the corner opposite the hall.
A chimney has an outlet, between the
door to the rear porch and the pantry,
for the kitchen stove. The pantry is
an ideal one, with counter and cup
board. The refrigerator is placed in
| the pantry and is iced from the rear
| porch. A little den and a toilet are
also placed on the first floor.
| Two bedrooms, a bath and a stor-
age room occupy the second floor. A
long hall extends parallel to the stair
case, a feature which gives the neces
sary privacy to the sleeping rooms.
