"Of course you will have a sleeping
1,orch."
That is a remark which one some
times hears when mention of q new
house Is made.
The sleeping porch may be a fad, but
1t looks very much like a fixture. In
some Of the suburban communities
there are houses specially designed to
accommodate sleeping porches and
those who live within are o by any
means tubercular.
A sleeping porch Is a provision for
sleeping outdoors In summer at least,
and not a few open-air devotees cling
to their outdoor sleeping quarters
throughout the twelve months; from
January to December.
The simplest method Of constructing
a real sleeping porch in q new house
OF modest proportions is to construct
a generous dormer in the roof on the
sheltered side, leaving 1T entirely open
at the front except to q point about 2
feet above the floor, to which height
1t should be boarded up. In this way
q room of adequate size is formed,
without drafts. and requiring only a
curtain in front to secure privacy.
A good plan is to shingle the roof
and sides and to lay a heavy grade of
prepared canvas IN the floor. This
roofing and deck canvas is waterproof,
so strong that 1t may be walked on
freely, comes In widths of 80 and 80
inches. is Tapped an inch and a half
when 1t is put down, and it is fastened
with tacks not more than an inch
apart. 1t Is best to give 1t a coat Of
paint at once and to keep it painted at
Intervals throughout the year. Make

AZ the same time all outside wood
work In connection with a brick house
requires touching up oftener than a
wooden house because of the necessary
contrast between the rough, duh brick
toning and the smooth, polished, bright
paint surface Of the woodwork.
Red Brick Gives Warm Tone.
Red brick gives a warm tone to q
house, which is another recommended
ton for the colder sections OF the
country. 1t also looks solid and sub
stantial, which adds a certain senti-
mental value beyond the additional
cost. The brick mason, OF course,
must thoroughly understand the laying
and anchorlng of brick when 1t is used
for this purpose.
The width of foundation wall Is
enough greater to allow for the 4-inch

The conversation In the lobby of a
Washington hotel turned to the coal
ramine. when a pathetic Incident along
that line was contributed by Repre-
sentative William J. Browning of New
Jersey.
One dark night some time ago, a
party named Rastus was walking down
the railroad track when his watchful
eye beheld a car loaded with coal
standing on a siding near his home.
Beautiful coall Midnight Not a soul
In sight.
Soon he had q wheeIbarr0w and
many trips were made from the coal
car to his home. Finally the small
cellar was filed TO his satisfaction, and
after covering up the tracks Rastus
slept the sleep Of the Just. The next
morning he carelessly rambled over
toward the siding.

Little Furniture Needed.
Couch hammocks seem to belong
naturally to sleeping porches ard are
as convenient and comfortable for an
after dinner siesta as for the nightly
repose. It Is important to have a thick
and well-made mattress, both for COM
fort and to keep the cold from pene-
trating. Little else In the way of fur
nishings is needed except perhaps a
rug on the floor.
In the accompanying plans is illus
trated an inexpensive fEe-room bun

porch arrangement. The width Is %

es in the rear and a veranda reaching
across the whole width OF the front.
The bungalow is planned for the
north side OF the lot facing east, al
though it might be placed on the left
side of any lot. The idea is to place
the living room ON tile open side Of the
house, looking towards the sun. on
the general plan of admitting all light
and sunshine possible to rooms that
are used the most.
The plan of this brick bungalow Is
especially well liked because of the
extra large living room, which when
open through to the dining room,
makes one grand room. 20 feet In
length. Many details, such as buIlt-in
buffet, book shelves at the side of the
fireplace. beam ceilings, recessed win
dows and special folding doors. add
very much to the comfort and attrac-
tiveness Of this large, airy, sunny
room.
