ance this type of house has is shown
by the illustration, while the roominess
of the interior is disclosed by the floor
plan.
This house is of wood frame COW
cred with shingles to the foundation
sill. 1t will be noted that the house
is perfectly balanced. The entrance
door is in the center of the building,
while on either side are the same num-
Der of windows The sloping Dutch
roof, that has q graceful sweep from
ridge to second floor sill, and the jut-
ting windows take away the plain ap-
pearance without adding the extra
cost that is incurred to accomplish
the same result with an odd-shaped
building. The addition of the sun
parlor at the end containing the din
ing room is a feature of this design
that has an exceptional appeal.
The dimensions of this house are
only 36 by "a feet, but it contains
eight rooms and bath beside the large
sun parlor. The entrance leads into
q center hall, in which are the stairs
leading to the second floor. To the
left is the living room, with a den off
it, and Mt the right is the dining room
and sun parlor, the kitchen adjoining.
The living room is of good size, be-
ing - feet 8 inches, by 16 feet. The
fireplace is in the outside wall and
has two windows on either side, which
coupled with the three that can be
seen in the perspective make it q light
and cheerful room. The den adjoin-
ing is II feet 6 inches. by 6 feet G

The dining room is 13 feet inches

There are many reasons why the
prospective home builder should at
once select the plan of the house he
wants and start construction now.
Building materials are higher in price
than they were two years ago, but not
as high as they were last fall. Labor
costs q little less than it did in Octo-
Der. 1913. And coupled with these rea-
sons is the fact that there will be
no change during the present year in
the price of materials, with a strong
probability that they will go higher
next year. This last statement is bas-
ed on the fact that the costs Of a ma
jority of necessities have risen during
the first four months of the year.
Building material prices, however,
have been stabilized, that is, they will
go neither higher nor lower.
Many persons who want to build a
home, and have determined on build
Ing, now that the restrictions have
been removed by the government,
have been doubtful about the advisa-
bility of building now. Those doubts
are dispelled by the stabilizing of
prices and the fact that labor is plen-
tiful, if not cheap.
In selecting the type of home to
build, every owner should take into
consideration the size of house he
needs, the size of lot he has upon

porch is equipped with glazed WIN
dows for winter use and is screened
in the summer. 1t can be used either
as living porch or as a dining porch
The kitchen is II feet inches, by
s feet and has a good-siZed pantry
adjoining.
On the second floor are four good
sized bedrooms opening off center
hall, and the bathroom.
The basement extends under the
whole house, with the exception of the
living porch.
This house will suit the needs OF the
moderately large family and is equal
ly suitable for the city, small town

compared with many other houses that
will accommodate the same number OF
people and it is an exceptionally at

Thunnh-ReIlS

Sailors used to wear little con
trivance on their thumbs; they called
them first thumb-bells, then later thin
bles. 1t is claimed that they were
used in the days of Herculaneum.
1t takes 20 men and great deal of
expensive machinery to make a thin

Britain from Holland in 1896 by ol,

which to put it, and the style of archi-
lecture best suited to that lot. These
considerations, however, carry little
weight in the country where space is
not so costly as in the city.
Illustrated herewith is the type of
home that is in great demand in both
the city and country. The Dutch CO.

New theory as to Cancer.

A well-Enown medical authority has
advanced the theory that false teeth
are often the cause of cancer. Where
II set of teeth fits imperfectly, the con-
slant abrasion on the gums causes. at
first. the development of an area of
congested tissue. In time this forma
tion degenerates into an liberated
state. which. although innocent enough
in the beginning. may soon exhibit .
rapid malignant transformation The
changes from healthy structure Of
the gums to that of cancer moves on
so insidiously in the early stages that
frequently the condition. when recog-
niZed. is difficult to combat.

Even in Siam.


Examining commercial possibilities
in Siam, commercial report makes
it clear that the country offers a
larger uneXploited field for plano man
ufacturers than for the makers of
monographs. With the exception of
the phonograph Siam still prefers
the musical instrument of it's ances-
tors. The Siamese orchestra con-
tents itself with gongs, native har-
monicas, and so forth. Indeed, the
only western instruments known to
the Siamese are the piano, a small
portable organ, and the phonograph.
The piano and the organ, however,
are rare, and are kept more for orna-
ment than for anything else. But the
phonograph is popular and is already
to be found in nearly every Siamese
family that is able to afford it.

arms, so that the little one shall grow
up cheerful and light-hearted.
Another ol6-fashioned theory is
that If boy iS baptized in the water
previously used for girl he will grow
up feeble and effeminate; while if the
case is reversed the baby will grow up
lacking in womanly attributes. In
every country white is employed for
all baby garments, but where little
color is introduced the superstitious
mother takes care that it is a lucky
shade. Red is said to be a lucky color.
