You know what kind of houses the birds build for themselves:
 "Cheep, cheep,'' they say, as they build their leafy nests.
 The house-plan shown here is "cheap, cheap as far as money outlay is concerned. But it gives every advantage found in most houses costing double the price,
 There's lots of room in this style of house, but not a speck of room wasted all rumors to the contrary notwithstanding.
 Note the clever way the pantry is placed out side the kitchen
 The sewing room on the second floor can be used as fresh air sleeping room.
 When you build this house your neighbors will think you spent two dollars every time you really spent one.
