card. 1t is hardly necessary to men.

night comes In ten seconds time and
with scarcely any effort, the bed is
swung out of the closet and lowered
for use in the adjoining room. Any
living room or dining room can be al
most instantly converted into a Sleep
ing room. Instead of sleeping in small
crowded bedrooms, the largest, best
ventilated rooms in the house are used
for sleeping purposes at night, when
they are no longer needed as living
rooms.
Study the accompanying plan, for
moment. Here is a fOur-room house
with siX-rOom accommodations. Two
concealed beds are used in this house
and one regular bedroom is provided.
Even in such a small house there is
no feeling of being overcrowded, all
on account of the arrangement. This
house with siX-roOm efficiency is only
21 feet, inches wide and &c feet,
inches long, yet it furnishes perfect
sleeping accommodations for six peo-
pie without overcroWding.
The saving in construction between
this house and one of five rooms makes
it worthy of much consideration.
The concealed bed is no longer an
experiment. It is a pronounced sue
cess and is in general use today in
every section of the country. No 9th
er one idea has been so instrumental
in reducing construction cost and fur.
nishing maximum accommodations in
a minimum space.
