I MODERN HOME AT MODERATE COST Outward Appearance is Attrac tive and Pleasing. 3 CONVENIENT BEDROOMS Him That Answara the Demands Whara Maana Ara Mod a rata but Taataa Particular?Kltohan la ? Stap Saver. By WILLIAM A. RADFORD Mir. William A. Radford will anawar QuaatlOns and atv? advlca FREE OF COST on all aubjacta pertaining to the subject of building, for tha readers of this paper. On account of his wtda experience aa Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he la. without doubt, the hlcheot authority on all theae subjects. Addraaa all Inquiries to William A. Radford, No. 1KT Prairie avenue. Chlcaco. Hi., and only lnclooe two-cent stamp for reply. Often tha builder la confronted with the demand that he Is expected to build a home of ample accommoda tions for a medium sited family, that It shall be attractive and pleasing In appearance and yet its cost shall be moderate. - Now that may seem like quite a large order to All. But there are such homes and we are pleased to suggest one of them. It la pleasingly attrac tive, there Is enough room for the average family to dwell Within with evefy comfort, and the coat will be within the range of the owner whose building budget Is of modest size. The large open porch with over hanging roof supported by special fit ted columns and a touch of the per gola effect are strong factors In making the house home-like to look at. The French windows at one side and the large windows on the other side of the front exterior, nicely set off with an awning and a flower box, make a front that will capture and pleaae the eye. The living room has the ever popular fireplace, an Idea which we borrowed from the past, but which la an es sential element In every modern home. And there la a bed closet In this room, so the three bedrooms have the add 3d accommodations of an extra bed when necessity arises. While the living room la only 14 by 17 feet It Is connected with the fair sized dining room by glass doors so the rooms may be used In conjunc tion and answer'the purpose of one large living room. While compact, the three, bedrooms are large enough for the use Intended and are well located' In relation to the bathroom. Thara Is a convenient back porch compact lines which nve steps and time for the buy housewife. Note how well lighted all the rooms are. Besides the glass doors In the living room there are two small win dows at hither side of the spacious fireplace. In the dining room the architect has arranged three windows of such size and length that they ad mit an abundance of cheerful light The kitchen has two windows and two of the bedrooms have-two windows .while the front bedroom has the added advantage of a third window. While exact figures will have to be obtained from the local dealer, prices varying In different localities. It can be generally stated that this design can be built at moderate expense. Laws of ths Soul. The Intuition of the moral sentiment Is an Insight of the perfection of the laws of the soul. These laws execute themselves. They are out of time, out of space, and not subject to circum stance. Thus, In the soul of man there Is a Justice whose retributions are In stant and entire. He who doey a good deed Is Instantly ennobled. He who does a mean deed Is by the action It self contracted. He who puts off Im purity thereby puts on purity. If a man la at heart Just, then In so far Is he God; the safety of God, the Immor tality of God, the majesty of Ood do enter Into that man with justice. If a man dissemble, deceive, he deceive* himself, and goes oat of acquaintance with hia own being. A man In the view of absolute goodness, adores. With total humanity. Every step so down ward Is a step upward. The qjan who renounces himself comes to himself.? llalph W. Emerson. Excitsmsnt Adda to Waight Strain. To Inaore a margin of safety, a grandstand designed to accommodate 14.000 people weighing approximately 890 tons, must be strong enough to support a weight of at least 1,700 tons. The reason for this Is that when peo ple are fexclted and jump about they weigh twice as much as when sitting still. A man crouching adds about 65 per cent to his weight in suddenly straightening himself up; rising from a sitting 'position adds about 80 per cent, and It Is possible, by rising with a sudden jerk, to momentarily add over 190 per cent of the strain of one's weight As people on a grandstand witnessing games, or other exciting spectacles, cannot We relfed upon to sit still, the stand must be prepared to bear double their weight, thus al lowing every person to rise or sway In excitement without causing the structure to collapse. ?Igita of Lover's Devotion.
