NEW YORK, July 1S.-The tone of the day was one Of frmness due in great part to a desire on the part of
 shorts to further reduce outstanding commitments and buying in reaction theory. Outside buying however, could not be stimulated and this de spite the highly favorable showing of the Republic Steel company in the sec end quarter of the current year. An unsettling influence in the late trad ing was the conspicuous weakness in St. Paul-liquidation in this particular issue being induced by the fears that that company's annual dividend meet ing scheduled for next week on the disbursement of the common stock way be reduced. Another disturbing

is paid all or in part with borrowed money, the expenses over the five- year period will be greater by the amount borrowed than they would be if the money was all in hand at the time of building.
 Having determined as nearly as pos sible the amount which is to be in- vested in the house, the final expenses should be estimated These will fn- clude probable taxes and sewer as- sessments and principal with interest on any money borrowed This amount should be added to the original amount computed.
 Regarding the house itself there are two principal things which should be remembered: The first Is that quality materials and quality work manship should be given preference over size of structure and fast con- struction. The second is that there is always certain amount of ex- pense connected with the erection of house which does not show up in the estimate, an amount up to, say, 5 per cent of the estimated cost of the house. Having followed out all of the

calculations accurately, the prospect i've home builder may reasonably ex- pect to obtain the fullest measure of satisfaction out of his investment In q home.
 The accompanying illustrations present type of house which is at the same time attractive and sub stantial. It is not very often that the combination of stone masonry and stuc- co Is used in house construction, and it is peculiar fact, for the appear ance of a structure built in this way is altogether pleasing and satisfac- tory.
 The massiveness of the masonry work fits well into the design and the stucco carries along the general idea to the smallest detail. Stone is used in building the porch walls and the chimney. The porch columns are built of wood with stucco finish. The floor of the porch and the steps are made of concrete. The large roof surface is relieved with small dormers. Raft CTS at gable ends are supported with wooden brackets.
 n the room arrangement, notice the large living room. This room occupies the entire forward half of the first floor. An open stair is built along one end of the room with a landing at the bottom which is two steps above the level of the living room floor At the other end of the room is large fireplace with bookcase on each side. The small closet directly opposite the front door will be handy for wraps.
 The dining room layout includes three-window bay, which makes this room well-llghted and pleasant A buffet is built under the window in the rear wall. Notice the handy ar engagement of the kitchen. The two cupboards will be found very conyen- tent. The second floor contains two generous-sized bedrooms.

A rough balance may here be estab- lished There is a certain amount which may be spent in the construc- ton of the house so that the expenses before the house Is built will be equal to those after the house Is built Ordi- narily, when this condition exists the total cost of construction must be paid from sum in the hands of the owner at the time of building. In case 1t Is necessary to borrow por- tion of the money, the expenses over the five-year period will include the amount borrowed, plus interest up to the time of payment. Of course. If the house is paid for out of sum which has been earning interest, this interest will cease coming in. The interest amounts will probably balance one another since in one case qn amount ceases to come in, which is practically equal for a like prin- cipal to the amount which must be paid cut, in the other case. The diff ference in the two cases, then, comes down to matter of the principal alone: If tae house-construction cost

 The Supreme Court denied re hearing in the case of the State against the Bodcaw Lumber Company of Stamps, thereby settling q case Of much interest to corporations doing business in Arkansas. The court holds that the entire capital stock of corporations. irrespective of whether or not part of if was invested in an other state, was taxable in the state.
 In the case decided by the Supreme Court it was claimed by the state that the lumber company owes the state $250, ,000 back taxes, which are collect | able under the Supreme Courts rnl- ing. The Lafayette County courts sus- tained a demurrer, alleging that the states complaint did not cite a cause for action, or that the capital stock was not taxable. It will require a second suit to determine the amount due the state under the Supreme | Courts decision

 There Is little satisfaction gained by the man who goes into the building of home blindly. In most cases such man oversteps himself, gets hope lessly in debt and condemns the home building idea because of his own folly. Most people obtain such pleasure out of owning their own home that they are willing to make some sacrifice to obtain it. However, if this sacrifice takes the proportions of burden which must be carried for too long q time, its oppression will over shadow the pleasure which should be obtained from the home.
 This does not mean that man is wrong in going into debt to obtain il home. It means that he think well and figure carefully before taking ac- tion. If he can easily clear up all in- debtedness in three or perhaps five years, he is justified in going into the matter of home with his architect and builder.
