BUILD WITH EYE TO BEAUTY
Duty of All Who Plan Home to Con. sider Well How Structure Will
 Appear to BehoIder.

The beauty that may bc had out of the common things of the earth Is well Illustrated by the homes that one sometimes sees, beauty that is aIl the more emphasized by the contrast in the hideoas result of the use of the same common things by others
 You will see in the country places as you go about, how one man will take the things that are to his hand and build from them beautiful house. He took the rock and stone, the wood, the sand and the earth that were un- der his feet. Out of these he framed rooftree that is kindness to the eye.
 Another man with the same mate rials threw them together crudely, making a thing that had to go by the name of q house, but which offends the eye that beholds ft. The oue house cost no more in either labor or money than the other. yet the results are as different as day and night.
 The most striking as well as the most historic instance of what ean be done with the common things Of the earth, is furnished by the old Fran eisean missions of California They are architectural gems. Yet all that the padres had for material was what they found at hand and under their feet. They had only Indian labor to call on.
 While we are at 1t we might as well put touch of beauty to what We do, whether 1t be that we are building q house or chicken coop.
