The work of tho Rod Cross sutRoona

but was made pulilir l)ecanse of the

‘‘An hour Inter, as our night’s work

and says something t«> tho hrancar-

and In a niomont the ‘blesse from

TKat New Home of Yours
tlli-
It is generally admitted that homes of average
size are be§l built when built of wood. Certain
it is that no other material lends itself so well
to cozy, comfortable, homelike effedls—or
co^s so little money. A great architect wrote
in a recent number of THE HOUSE BEAU
TIFUL. “It may be que^ioned whether
a small house should ever be built of
anything but wood.”
If you are adlually planning to build, we
