BUILD TO SUIT HOUSEWIFE
Designers Appreciate Importance of
House Construction From the
Standpoint of the Women.

The average citizen, supported by
the women of his household, is de-
handing improved home building and
this will, of course, influence all future
building operations. From now on
consideration of the housing question
must be primarily from the point of
view of the housewife. Consequently,
l~abor-saving devices will be increasing
ly stressed. Landlords have learned
that 1t can be just as profitable to own
well-kept properties as it is to w
dilapidated tenements, or vacant lots
filed with rubbish or b%illboards.
The United States Housing corpora
ton, however, has not adopted any
Utopian building scheme. 1t has sim
ply recognized that the efficiency of
the workman is seriously deprecated
If he and his family must live in I'M
sanitary dwellings. 1t has been proved
that if he is to work to his best ca
pacity he must be not only well housed,
but housed adequately and comfortably
within reasonable distance from his
workshop and at a rental he will be
able TO pay.
Industrial housing is a comparative
ly new proposition in America. 1t is
an old n in England, and in many
ways 1t has been adequately solved.
The problem there is now largely dealt
with from the woman's angle.

REFUGE FROM SUDDEN STORM
Easily Constructed Shelter Which
Should Have Place on Every Pub
lie Picnic Ground.

There is not much pleasure to be
had in the woods If no shelter is nea
when rain threatens at any minute.
Many picnics are broken up by show
ers which last but a few minutes, sim
ply because there is no way to protect
he food or to keep dry until the squall
passes over, writes c. l.. MelIer, Fargo,
n D., in Popular Mechanics Mag
azine. A shelter. such rs illus
trated, will take the discomfort out
of walks n picnics, and will induce
people to tempt the weather more
often, since they know that protection
Is within easy reach.
A dead tree, the trunk of which is
still quite sound, makes an excellent
start for such a shelter. 1t should be
cut off about ten feet from he ground,
care being taken to make the saw
cuts as even as possible. 1t may be
necessary to erect s%caffolding to make
this cut properly. After he cut sur
face is worked smooth, eight rafters
are fitted into the top of the trunk,
The rafters are II feet long, four of
them being two by our inch timber,
and four, four by four inches. They
are supported at the outer end by
four by four inch posts, driven into
the ground N extending eight feet

Need for City PLANNING

The need of city planning and the
pushing of public work is greater to-
day than eve before, said Walter ID.
Moody, managing director of the Chi
cago plan commission. in an interview
with Il representative of the Christian
Science Monitor. Not only is this true
because public work needs TO be done
TO aid In the solution of the labor
problem, continued Mr.. Moody, but the
cities in the United States have grown
so rapidly in the last twenty years
md the problems of city life are so
complex that the new conditions can.

Of the people in them without a def

cial attention.

ops. grows worse-the pain and dis
tress is incessant and the. truth
dawns that we have chronic stom-
ach trouble.
The case of MI. Louis Young, EOS
Merrimac St, Rochester, N. Y, is
typical. He writes: Il suffered for
thirty years with chronic bowel
trouble. stomach trouble and hem
orrhages of the bowels. We bought
a bottle of Peruna and I took it
faithfully. I began to feel better.
My wife persuaded me to continue
and I did for some time as directed.
Now I am a well man." Mr.. Young's
experience is not unusual.
If you suffer from catarrh in any
form, whether of the head, stomach.
bowels or any other part of the
body, try Peruna. 1t may be just
what you need. Peruna comes in
either liquid or tablet form and is
sold everywhere. Your dealer has
1t or will get it for you. Ask for
p DR.. Hartman's World-Famous Pc

it. If you want your health accept
nothing else.

Upon this framework, which forms an
octagonal, umbrella-shaped structure,
seven-eighths inch boards are nailed
to form the roof. This may be COW

For greater comfort. a seat built
around the trunk may be added, and
other seats may be built near it. The

No sooner had the German treaty

the council of four began consideration
of the program for the presentation of
peace terms to the representatives of
Austria, Hungary and Bulgaria. These
treaties, which already were partly
drawn up, more Immediately C
Italy, and the return of the Italian del

was formulated for the disposition OF

should be under international control
until 1928 and should then be given to
Italy. In the meantime Jugo-Slavia
shall construct for itself a port a little
to the south of Fiume, with railroad
connection with Agram and other
cities. 1t was understood that Italy was
prepared to sacrifice some Of her
claims on the Dalmatian coast. 1t was

sale slaughter of Spartacans and sus-

Belgium having been given satisfac-
ton as to the parts Of the treaty which
didn't suit her at first. the only one OF
he allied and associated nations that
still held out against the pact was
China. The cabinet at Picking. 1t was
said, had instructed the Chinese dele
gates not to sign any treaty that trans
ferred to Japan the former German
rights in Shantung. Japan's victory in
the allied council has greatly stirred
China and there is danger of anti-for-
eign outbreaks there.
Press comment on the treaty, which
indicates or forms public opinion, is
varied. The German papers, of course,
denounce many of the terms as brutal
and impossible of acceptance. Those
of france praise the pact rather faint
ly. In England some journals commend
the treaty highly and others condemn
1t. The American press generally looks
on the pence terms as satisfactory.

The correspondent of q Berlin pa
per predicted that the German dele
gates in each case where it was con-
carefully formulated counterproposi-
ton stating the maximum they were
willing to concede. Many of these, he
said, were already drawn up, and the
Germans would "show the utmost on
s%ideration for the enemy's standpoint"
He asserted it would be particularly
difficult for Germany to yield to the
demand for the delivering up of the
Germans held guilty of being the in
stigators of the war.
This clause, which calls for the trial
of the former kaiser. was Incorporated
in the treaty at the last moment. 9th
er matters which were put in last week
included the disposition of the Ger
man colonies, as follows:
Togoland and Kamerun-France and
Great Britain shall make a joint recom-
mendation to the league Of nations as
to their future.
German East Africa-The mandate
shall be held by Great Britain.
German Southwest Africa-The man.
date shall be held by the Union of
South Africa.
The German Samoan islands-The
mandate shall be held by New Zealand.
The other German Pacific posses
sions south of the equator, excluding
the German Samoan islands and Nauru
The mandate shall be held by Aus
tralia.
Nauru pleasant island)-The man.
date shall be given to the British en-
pire.
The German Pacific islands north of
the equator-The mandate shall be
held by Japan.

his demand that France should be

to authorize an open agreement that
