Who could resist the appeal of such a cozy little cottage as this? It simply charms you right from the start and makes you feel as though you were looking into pie ture book instead of a real life- size house, too, for in spite of its picture book appearance it con- tains a big living room, 26 feet long, by B feet 3 inches wide, and four other rooms of proportionate size.
 Though this little house meas ures but 26 feet wide and 28 feet deep, it's proportions are so good that it carries an air of real dig nity and beauty in contrast with the box-lke appearance of so many very small houses we see. The high, snub-nosed gables create a snug appearance without any con- gestion of flatness. The walls cov- cred with shingles laid wide to weather are most appropriate, and the chimney worked into the en- trance detail gives that individual ity which is the secret charm of the place.
 It is. perhaps, this entrance de- tail and chimney that first catch the eyes. The chimney itself has a satisfying solidity without ap- bearing in the least too heavy for

 so small a house. It suggests a broad fireplace where, in winter and on chilly autumn evenings, the family will gather about cheery, cracking fire. Within, we find this fireplace as feature of the big living room which extends across the entire front of the house.
 To the rear of the living room are the dining room and kitchen. The latter is provided with rear entry and a conlmodious pantry. Basement stairs are placed in a passage between kitchen and din ing room, while from the dining room itself, stairway ascends to the floor above.

Too Many Beds Will SpciI the Garden

Avoid the use of too many flow CT beds except in their proper place Nothing does more to destroy a fine piece of landscape work than gecmetrical flower beds scattered about the lawn. The hardy flower ing shrub is one of the best mater ials for all plantings up to 10 or 12 fset in height. They live for a great many years, produce the same Towering effect you get from annual plants, and if you leave home for month they are even more baau- tiful when you return.

 Ideally, the kitchen should have a central location in the houN, for easy access to all other parts. And in order to save miles of walking during the preparation of the thou sand meals each year, it must be as small as consistent with the equipment which must be placed there = a minimum of, say 100 square feet for the average home.

House Architecture Leans To Simplicity

House Architecture Leans
 To Simplicity
 Forecasts of architectural fash ions for the coming year indicate that American home builders are tending toward simplicity in house design. Architects report that there is an unusual desire at present for economically planned houses of sturdy design and construction. This is probably the reason why Norman-French types are suddenly so popular.
 The simplicity of the Norman French design is suitable to the straightforward practical methods used in building American homes. This simplicity is also appropriate to the materials used both on the exterior and in the interior. Among the styles found in parts of Nor mandy and in the valley of the Loire are some houses that have very elaborate details, but it $ usually the simple country houses that seem to have most influence in the building of present day homes.
 Speakers at recent architectural conventions have also emphasized the importance of simplicity in re- modelling and painting existing houses, particularly those of the colonial type Driving through the unspoiled sections of New England towns convinces one that white, and nothing but white, is the per- feet color for a colonial house.
 Before acting upon this conclu- sion, however, it is just as well to realize that in the old New Eng land towns graceful trees create a series of natural proscenium arches which frame the views of the houses. Over all, there is a mosaic of sunshine and shadows. Let the trees be flewn down and an amazing amount of the old charm vanishes. If house is not enriched by trees or climbing vines, an unbroken expanse of white may make it look less pleasant.
 Whichever is chosen, white or cream, Gerald Geerlings of the Woman's Home Companion points out that the first maxim to re- member is that the whole house should be painted in the same color. The second is to select cer- tain features which can be painted in contrast to the general wall tone.

strips Of pickle, pimento or sweet pep
pers, olives and rings of hard-cooked
eggs are easily arranged to make meat,
fish or salad look smart and different,
while cucumber lemon quarters or thin
lemon slices dipped in finely chopped
parsley add the professionals touch to
fish. Celery curls are made by cutting
the stalks into thin strips and throwing
them in cold water. French chefs gar
nish with tiny cubes, triangles or circles
cut from very stiff jelly. Sweet jelly is
used for cold desserts, sweet salads and
cakes. White aspic Is used for cold
meat and salads.
An addition to both the appearance
and taste of lean roast meat is made
by threading larding needle with mar
row strips Of the fat of salt pork and
pushing them through the meat in sew
eral places before roasting it. In veal.
pot roast, corned beef and other meats
the strips show in the slices and look
tempting and appetizing and improve
the flavor. Imagination will suggest
other pretty garnishes.
A pretty garnish for the edge Of q
platter of meat or fish Is made of mash
ed potato or puree Of peas formed with

pastry bag and push the vegetable
through a pastry tube in the end OF
the bag. Icing, whipped cream and

Coffee Grinding Rule
BY SARAH BLACKWELL,

CTALE coffee too frequently finds its
way into our homes, making us dis
satisfied with coffees in general or one
coffee IN particular, according to re-
port Of packaged coffee investigation
recently conducted by the Tea and COf-
fee Trade Journal. This publication
gathered 80 brands Of coffee from all
parts of the United States and had
them tested by a coffee expert for fresh
ness, value and STABILITY. OF the SO
brands, 56 were judged to be stale and
10 not actually usable, in the opinion
Of the expert.
Such statements naturally make us,
as home makers, wonder what we can
do about being sure that the coffee we
buy is really fresh. The coffees tested
were put up in a great variety of pack
ages. including cans, glass jars and pa
per bags. but the report did not indi-
cate which of these packages rated
highest in protecting the delicate flavor
and aroma that we so much enjoy in
coffee.
However, Prof. Samuel C. Prescott of
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
reported, after three years of scientific
study of coffee in the department OF
biology and public health, that coffee
in the bean retains its flavor longer
than coffee in the ground form. Prof
Prescott also found that If we want all
the available flavor and aroma Of the
coffee 1t Is better to grind the coffee
beans Immediately before making the
beverage. He has proven that as soon
as the little brown outer covering OF
the coffee bean is broken much of the
flavor and aroma escaped.
Grinding coffee beans at home be-
fore each meal. therefore, seems to be
the ideal way to have really fresh
coffee. But many of us do not have
coffee grinders and if we did we would
be reluctant to add one more last-min-
ute task to the preparation of any
meal. The next best thing is to buy
only one weeks supply of coffee at a
time and have it ground when we buy 1t
so that we have the satisfaction of
knowing just how long natures own
seal on the coffee bean has been broken

FOOD AND THRIFT IN THE HOME

pears. Add one teaspoonful of salt, a
little pepper and two cupfuls OF to-
matoes. If convenient, a green or req
pepper cut in strips may be added.
Eighteen ripe olives and 80 raisins also
will improve the flavor and give inter-
est to the dish. but are not necessary.
Grease baking dish, put in layer of
corn meal mush, pour in the meat
mixture. cover with thin round pats of
the corn meal mixture, and bake for
half an hour.
Jellied Meat and Poultry.
Jellied meat, poultry and fish are all
good, as well as chopped jelly IN a
frosty fluit cup. When adding fruit %
jelly, you must have it cold and fold
it into the slightly thickened jelly. so
that it won't sink. Boiled custard
favored with sherry IS good on coffee
Jelly. With red salmon in clear aspic,
use mayonnaise tinted pale green
Softened gelatin is added to hot liquid
to dissolve. Another way is to set the
softened gelatin in bowl of hot water
to dissolve. Strain all clear jellies be-
fore turning into the mold Season
jellied soups highly. Garnish with
lemon.
Garnishes and Appetizers.
Garnish sparingly. Have the garnish
an eatable one. Use lemon with fish
or little parsley. A garnish has two
functions, to decorate dish and to
add to its subtlety of taste. Garnish
dark foods with light colors and light
foods with dark colors
Salads may or may not be garnished.
A green salad is both salad and garnish
in one. A stuffed prune is handsome
garnish. Olives and pickles are natural
garnishes. Fruits of many kinds make
lovely garnishes for meat dishes. espe-
cially pineapple or apricot. Tomatoes
and tomato jelly, cut in shapes or
chopped, will dress up cold meat
platter. Little curls of celery and roses
cut from radishes are attractive. Little
jelly molds make good trimmings for
fish and cold meats. Drowned crumbs,
croutons. toast sippets and nuts are
really garnishes, although not always
called by that name.
Sprigs of parsley or cress, few
blanched celery curls or lettuce leaves

SIMPLE method of improving

n the appearance Of the ordinary
II main hot dish is to arrange
some of the vegetables or
starchy foods in the form of
b-rder with meat in the center and the
ether vegetables as a garnish on the
outside
The easiest border to prepare Is one
of mashed potatoes. To prepare mash
the potatoes thoroughly, then add four
tablespoonfuls of hot milk or cream
,some varieties of potatoes require
more than this amount Of moisture to
make them of the right consistency
and two tablespoonfuls Of melted but
ter for each pint of mashed potatoes.
Season with salt and beat with a fork
until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Place an oval. round or square pan but

hot platter. Shape border OF the
potatoes around this and then remove
The pan. Place a creamed meat. fish,
eggs or vegetable within the border

Another combination that is still more
attractive and colorful is a ring of the

special occasion is desired, put the hot
mashed potatoes to which the eggs

the creased pan in the center of heat
resistant platter and pipe the potato
mixture around in ribbon form. Fill
this with chicken a la king and sur
round with a border of broiled mush-

potatoes are prepared in the same way
as white potatoes. except that the bor-

Choice of Borders.
Macaroni spaghetti or noodles make
excellent borders. They cannot be

After the fish is properly cleaned,
take out the bone. Begin at the tail
and work toward the head; with your
fingers work out the bone, keeping the
fingers near the bone and pushing the
flesh away. Put with the skin side
down on piece Of brown paper in a
