Rv William A. RApEoRp.

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject Of building, for the readers of this
paper. On account of his wide experience
as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he
is. without doubt. the highest authority

Everyone who lives or has lived in
small town knows or can remember
'the brick house." The owner usually
was the most affluent member of the
community. Not that the brick house
cost so much more than the others,
but just the word "brick" conveyed
the thought of stability.
Bricks and brick houses are almost
as old as civilization. True, the bricks
of centuries ago did not compare with
the bricks of today, but the ancients
fashioned blocks Of clay in the warmer
climates. allowed them to bake in the
sun and constructed houses of them.
And they lasted and supplied a home
for generation after generation.
These are the reasons that brick
houses are popular. They give an air
of stability, because. they are stable
themselves. The man who builds a
brick house builds not only for him.

tions to come.
In the era Of home building that is

A careful study of the first and Sec
ond floor plans given herewith will
reveal to the reader how many are the
fine features of this brick house.
Home Is Good Investment.
Owning a home of this character is
as great an asset as being the owner
of Liberty bonds. Both are the best
investment any man can make. The
former provides q place for the fam.
lily to live in the years to come and
the latter provide the wherewithal to
maintain it. Prosperity begets pros
perity and there is no place more pros
porous than a community that is made
up of home-owners and not renters.
The quicker a man gets into the former
class, the better citizen he becomes
and the better chance he has to be
prosperous.
The principal reason why the mod
ern American head of family does
not own his home is that he feels
that assuming the responsibility of
paying for it is not worth the effor
A talk with any home-owner will seon
dissipate this idea. The banks are
flied with money that the prosperity
of the country has brought and they
are looking for sound investments.
And there is no investment a bank
would rather make than loaning
money to a man who wants to build
a home. A small percentage of the
cost is all that is needed to get a
home; the balance can be paid in
place of the rent that the tenant pays
to his landlord.
With the government urging build.
ing, just as it urged everyone to buy
Liberty bonds, there is added to the
investment in home the feeling that
he who builds is a good patriot
Build home" this spring and next
! spring see how much happier you are
and, what is better, how happy youl
family will be.

Iron Coins In History.

Iron coins, which have been intro
duced into Italy through the scarcity
of copper, were first revived for mod
ern Europe by Austria soon after the
great war began. They are no novelty,
but kind of Darwinian "reversion to
type" in the evolution of numiSmat-
les. Cumbrous iron and bronze ingots
formed a medium of exchange long
before Pheidon, king of Argos, struck
the first silver coins in the temple of
the love-goddeSs at Aegina, which was
the earliest European mint. Coins of
iron circulated for centuries among
the Chinese, but finally fell to a third
of their value owing to the dishon-
esty of the government
