with double windows looking onto the
porch is a breakfast nook, for informal
family meals. At the other side of the
kitchen is a goodsiZed pantry, and of
the short hall that leads to the base
ment stairway is lavatory.
The stairs lead to a double IT,
shaped hall on the second floor, the
hall extending around the stairway.
On this floor are four gOod-sized bed
| rooms, well-ventilated and sunny. Tive
of the bedrooms are Is by 13 feet, and
the other two slightly smaller, 13 feet
inches by IA feet inches At the
head of the stairs at the front Of the
home is large sewing room, and in
the corresponding position at the back
is the bathroom.
All of the bedrooms look out on the
roofs Of the pOrches, which the archie
tect has specified to be covered with
prepared canvas deck cloth, making
the floors less noisy and more easily
kept clean. Each Of the bedrooms has
a series of closets adjoining it. These
closets are to be equipped with space
saving clothes-hangers, which save a
great deal of closet space and keep the
clothes in excellent condition.
The basement extends under the
whole of the building proper. Here
are located separate rooms for the
heating plant, the fuel storage, cold
storage of fruits and vegetables, and
space for the storage Of tools and 9TH
er garden and lawn utensils.

DUTCH COLONIAL.
TYPE Of HOME
Seven-Room House Adapted tor
the Average Family.
BEAUTIFUL AND INEXPENSIVE
Modern Adaptation of Old Architec-
tural Type of House Is Exception
ally Popular With Home
Builders.

No type of home architecture is more
popular with present-day home build
ers than the Dutch Colonial house.
While the name, Dutch Colonial, sug-
gests architecture of couple Of cen
turies ago, modern architects have TAX
en- the beauty of the old design and
added to it the comforts and conven'
fences of the twentieth century.
Exterior balance that denotes the CO.
lonial and the roof lines of the Dutch
architectural school, are about all that
is left of the two types of houses from
which the name is secured. But this
sort of home is popular, and many hun
dreds of them are being erected in all
parts Of the country.
An example of the Dutch Colonial
home is shown in the accompanying IL.

onto the porch. The latter is practi-
cally inclosed and built 50 that the
openings may be screened in summer
and glassed in winter, making an addi-
tional sitting room that is most pleas
ant.
To the left of the hall is the dining
room, also a front room. The size Is
IS by 18 feet, and with the triple win
dows at the front and the French doors
that open to the second porch is a
cheerful room. Back of the dining
room is a goodsized kitchen, by 10

luStratiOn. In this design the colonial
balance is maintained both in the ex.
terror and interior. 1t will be noted
by comparing the exterior view and
the floor plan, that accompanies it,
that the entrance hall is placed in the
center of the building; that the win
dOWs on either side are duplicates, and
that there is a similar open porch at
either end. This same balance is car
ried out on the second floor. The
gambrel cut Of the roof, and the long
sweep that the roof makes to the Sec
ond floor sill are graceful. Taken all
together this is a mighty handsome
home from the exterior.
This house is Of standard frame con-
structiOn, with exterior walls of stucco
over either metal or wood lath. The
dimensions are 40 by 80 feet.
The entrance also Is colonial. The
small porch with the fan-shaped win
dows above it is found in the best CO.
lonial designs. Here, the porch Is
shown glassed in, but the glass frames
often are removed, especially in the
summer
1t is the interior, however, that in
terests the women members of the fam
lily most. How the rooms are arranged
and their size are shown by the
floor plan. The entrance leads to a
central hall, out of which runs the
stairs. To the right is large living
room, Is feet wide and 20 feet long.

Of view, his modest social and financial stand

She was obviously ambitious for brilliant mar
rage for Muriel, that would read we'll in the
society column. Perhaps she was right; certainly
she normal in wishing to see her daughter
of living to which she had been accustomed
Consequently he knew that if she ever sus-
pected the fact Of his $Isoooooo her whole manner
would undergo an abrupt and favorable change
But was she only mcrcenary? This Count he
couldn't even support Muriel He would be a bar
nacle the family fortunes. If Mrs. Lannard ap-
proved OF fortune hunting foreigner merely be-
his title, shared by her daughter would give
her pleasant thrill, that revealed her motives as
being snobbish, too-as putting a higher valuation
upon an empty title than upon her daughters per-
manent welfare.
After all, who the Lannards anyway, he
wondered cynically. They had from a small
town in Pennsylvania where Mr.. Lannard's ex-
tensve factories were still located No doubt they
ordinary people enough before riches had
come to therf and they had moved to the great
city. 1t would be interesting to know something
about their antecedents and connections if only to
discover what license they had to look down upon
him.
This reflection gave him food for a new line OF
thought and action. In the meantime he wrote a
polite note to Mrs. Lannard asking for a private
interview.
brief response arrived the following day.
She would see him. No doubt her ready acquies-
cence was due to her wish finish and for all
Bacon's unwelcome attentions. She seemed con-

CHAPTER Nv.

Mrs. Lannard had just alighted from her limou-
sine when Harry Bacon stopped his Hivver at the
curb behind. He felt restraining hand his arm
as Muriel sought to prevent discovery by her
mother. But too late. He was out of the car and
holding the door open for her to descend.
Then Mrs. Lannard him. She stopped
abruptly questioning look in her eyes. Glancing
at the muffled figure in the hivver, she asked in
hard voice:
as that you, Muriel?"
"Yes, mother" said the girl. slowly stepping
Harry was conscious of high tension. Mrs
Lannard had not yet even bowed to him.
Where have you been, Muriel?' she asked
coldy.
Mr.. Bacon and 1 have been down to the
Day Nursery"
"Im sorry. The Count came just after you left
the house. He waited for you" Then, turning to
Bacon, she said with pointed dstinctness: "If Mr.
Bacon will excuse you, would like to speak to you
inside"
That young man was not unprepared for the
cold douche, but it aroused in him the impulsive
desire tell her that he had just fallen heir
to great fortune for the pure fun of seeing her
inevitable reaction. With difficulty he restrained
himself. This not the moment for such dis
closure.
So he bowed and departed, and later in his room
reviewed the situation in all its aspects.
Since the beginning Mrs. Lannard had never
for one moment allowed him to forget that his at
tentions to her daughter unwelcome. He
naturally always very uncomfortable in her pres

Chicken-Stealing Losing
Popularity in Maryland

HYATTSvILLE. Md. Oct o.
Nocturnal raids upon chickenhouses
seem to have lost their lure for
Southern Maryland folk who were
inclined that way. At any rate.

alleged chicken thief before him in
the Police Court here yesterday,
stated that 1t was his first case OF
this character since he took ONCE
March IL last. Judge Hunter said
he did not know the reason. but
1t did appear that this form OF out

passe.
Thomas Davis was the man before
Judge Hunter yesterday. He was ac-
cused Of stealing fourteen chickens
valued at S2S. from jeremiah Haw-
kins, colored politician. at Randall

hngerprint evidence when IL was
well known that practically every
piece Of tangible evidence had been
handled by other persons before

department. arrived on the scene.
He recalled that he had been re-
quested at the Westmoreland Coun-
ty coroner's inquest to inspect the
pistol. hatchet. and other bits of
evidence before the arrival Of
Sergt. Toler.
He also wondered why he had
been asked to identify a pipe re-
ported to have been found on the
floor in his home. but he would not
commit himself as to whether the
pipe belonged to him or some one
else. II was supposed that perhaps
the pipe may have been dropped by
the strange man whom Miss Knox
asserts she saw running out of the
house just before she entered and
discovered the hacked and mutilated
body OF Mrs. Eastlake PROSTATE on
the floor.
The interview was interrupted by
the arrival of the Rev. n. ]. Brown

yesterday from Colonial Beach con-
tafEing information which may help
the commonwealth TO strengthen its
case Toler visited Eastlake in jail
and questioned him. but did not dis
close the result OF the interview nor
the contents of the letter.
Miss Knox, in another section OF
the prison, seemed in particular
cheerful mood today. Her keepers
said they are convinced reports that
she was a drug fiend were without
foundation. Although she has been
in their care for four days she has
yet to ask for dope. 1t is rare, the
keepers say. that victims of the
habit go longer than twenty-four
hours before calling for IL.
