tnrce square feet. Houses must be dry and free from draft, but must ale low ventilation. Often there is small unused shed or building on the place which can easily be converted into a chicken house. The front of the poultry house should be faced toward the south, if possible. so that the sun will shine into it. Perfectly satisfac- tory houses can be made cheaply from piano boxes or other packing cases. Two piano boxes with the backs re- moved can be nailed together and a door cut in the end. These boxes should be covered with a roofing pa- per in order to keep the house dry and make it wind-proof. A portion of the door should be left open or GOV cred with a piece of muslin, so as to allow ventilation. Similar houses can be constructed of packing cases at relatively small cost. A small amount of two by four or two by three lumber can be purchased for framing. The box boards can be applied for siding or sheathing, and then covered with roofing paper. Where there is board fence 1t Is sometimes possible to take advantage of this by building the poul- try house in the corner of the fence, and making the fence itself, with the cracks covered by strips or battens. serve as the back and one side of the house.
 A cheap house P by 16 feet can be made of two by four inch pieces and 12-inch boards. Plans for such house are given. It is constructed on the curtain front plan, which supplies the most satisfactory ventilating system ever adopted in poultry house. AS the illustration shows, the glass sash are up near the roof in the high front to admit sunshine directly onto the scratching floor late in winter when the sun is high up overhead.
 Ventilation Through Curtains.
 In very cold sections of the country sash may be fitted into the lower parts of the window frames, but always one must be left open for ventilation through the curtain. Thin five-cent cheesecloth is used for this purpose. Poultry writers sometimes make the mistake of calling it canvas" Can vas means alright or watertight. The windows might as well be boarded across as to fill in the openings with canvas.
 The most approved ventilating win dows have the muslin stretched over an inner frame, which fits into heav- fer frame in such a way as to stretch the muslin tight and to permit easy removal for washing. When muslin is clean, the light gets through it as well as the air. It looks cleaner and better to have muslin nice and white.

For Farm or Village.

For Farm or Village.
 This plan makes convenient little poultry house for either farm or will lage where good poultry is kept for eggs in the winter time.
 This poultry house is large enough to hold 9 or 30 laying hens. It needs about that many together in the winter time to keep them warm.
 In making this house warm for a cold climate, 1t is necessary to make the walls double. A light two by four sill is placed on top of the concrete wall and 1t should be bolted down i; two by four studding is covered both outside and inside with building paper. The outside is finished with drop sid- ing or elapboards. The inside is board. ed with narrow matched siding with beading.
 The roof is made warm the same as the sides, and in very much the same manner. Kiln-dried lining is very much preferred and should be thoroughly well nailed to prevent the joints from opening. The inside of a poultry house must have no cracks to harbol mites or lice.

My HEART and
MY HUSBAND
Adele Cartons New Phase Of
Revelations
of a Wife
What Madge Sa.D and Heard
When She AUoke.

I oNG after Dicky slept I lay awake
hugging to my heart tho comfort
ing. comprehending assurance of
support which my husband had given
me when had told him Of the trouble
in connection with Miliy stockbridgs's
death.
1t had been a revelation to me OF q
trait In my husbands character for
which had not given him credit. Much
of the terror with which the incidents
following tho death of my principals
wife had invested mo had its roots in
the ever-present question: what would
Dicky say IL he knew"
Now he knew, and instead OF blaming
me his only thought had been of how
best to protect me from whatever threat
ened. When finally fell asleep my last
waking thought was one OF grateful hap
piness mingled with self-reproach at not
having understood my husband better.
When l awoke the sun was streaming
through the windows, and the room was
filled with sounds of delighted baby
chuckles. ! rose on one elbow to see
Dicky capering around the floor In his
pajamas. playing bear, elephant and
other equally amusing roles for tho
benefit of his small son. who-an ador-
able. flushed vision-was holding him
self up by the bars of his cvib and crow
ing with delight
