?'he true virtue of Uie low, gable
roufeil bungalow, ns tnr us appear
nuce Is concerned, obtains when there
Is no restriction placed upon the de?
signer us to the splice on ibis ground
which may bo used. It Is fundamental
thnt tills type of bungalow should
liuve nn Rp|>carancc of freedom. The
design. In Its most mdlcjtl form, tuny
even be carried Bltuosl to the polnl
where the building might bo culled
"rambling," without teeming to vlo
lute the poRslble characteristics of this
atylc.
Nnturnlly, the type of house which
occupies ii Inrge ground area with re?
spect to the totnl Moor ?res provided
Is not the must economical type of
houses to build, either with respect t?i
materials or land. The man who
builds such n bouse must be willing to
spend nit appreciable proportion of his
Investment In obtnlnltig Just the np
pearanCO Which Ik desired. In the low.
expanded, gable-roof bungalow, the In?
crease In srouud nren represents an
Inerenno In cost of the roof which Is
considerably more tbnn the cost of
lidding n second floor to it smaller
building to obtain the sumo added
floor apace, There Is n eerttdn nmouul
of the roof cost which must be spent
wore or less solely for decoration und
tho proportion between this ec.it for
decoration und thn totnl roof cost Is
ordlnnrlly Inrrenscd as the nrea to be
covered is Increased, There lire also
other considerations ivhlcb tend to ;
make the extended bungalow IiIkIi tn
cost. After ii certain siie of rooms Ih
reached, there i- no advantage In In?
creasing the size <>( the buUillng in
both directions, in fact, it is linpoa
slide to d<i so both for artistic und
structural reasons. This rrqulrrH the
expanding of the bungalow across iib
facade, ordinarily, since the depth of
the lot Ik limited, rattier tllOO the width.
In ur,ler to prevent monotony, this
lengthened bulidlug must he given n
plan js?tuettilng different from the rec?
tangular. The necessary Irregularity
In wuiis Implli s Increased cost in fram?
ing them und Mulshing them unit also
brings In un extra expense In frtimtnit
the roof to conform to the Irrcgulnr
Itlei In the nulls of thr building.
The*? facts are not Intended to dio
courage the use of the extended bunga?
low style, for It Is Indeed a most novel
and very plcaNltnc type uf house for
the person who la attracted by its
unique characteristic*. The point la
that quite often there is un tinpres

lo a low-COal bulldlnx and nheu the
prospective home bulkier collies to the
mutter of cost, he Is dlscourugcd be

A barisnlrjw la shown In too at>

of which cnlU for a bulldlnv 4."? fco'
by 4.1 feet 0 Indies. This slio ap?
proaches very near the limit for n
square building of this type. There
nre several features which nre Inter?
esting, both la the exterior niipenrnnce
and Interior arrangement. The build?
ing Is beautiful fruiu the outside. It
Is a modern warco design with heavy
structural timbers and brackets show?
ing. The construction forming the
supporting structure of the overhang?
ing part of the roof nbovc the front
Imrch Is novel. The porch mil Is
built of rough texture face brick with
white concrete copings. Chimneys are
built of the snme. type of brick.
A feature of tbo Interior of this de?
sign Is the Inrge unobstructed Hour
spnee ncross the front of the house.
The reception bull Is extremely roomy
und opens through ensod openings Into
the living room on one side und I he
dining room mi the other. These! open?
ings tin* nfl wide ns the depth of the
reception hall end give the Impression
Unit the front of the house Is nil one
big room. This feature ?III be appre?
ciated by the lady of Ilia house who
can readily realize Us advanlngc In
connection with the entertainment of
guests.
The living room presents n remark?
ably cor.y appearance. On the op?
posite side fruui the opening Into Ilia
reception hull Is u big brick flrepl.
which lins n bookcase on em li side of
It. The nook with the sent around It
deserves special mention. The pergola
Is not built all the way ueross lha
front of the bouse, but n Utile comer
Is left projecting out nt the end of Iii?
porch. The nook Is built Into this
corner ami seems to be detached from
the rest of the room. A nonk Ilk" this
lunkes ? very Interesting and striking
change from the ordinary.
The window scut In the curved Mx
Wlndow buy In the dining room Is it
grent convenience. It adds consider?
ably to the use of the dining room In
connection with the living room when
they are used together for entertain?
ing. There Is u pair of double doors,
full glazed, going onto the front porch,
which make the porch und pergola ni
cesslble from this room. The |M>rch
can bo rciichod from any room In Ihn
front of the house through similar
doors. There are two nets of double
doors from the living room und there
Is one set from the reception bull In
loldltlon to the solid door lit the lllllln
entrance. All these double doors nre
glased, which helps to light Hp ?
lieniillful ftont rooms.
The closets in this bungalow me
plentiful mid generous In size. The
reception ball opens Into mi Interim
hull hi I hi- rear. On tine hIJc o( the
counei llur. eased opontug !?? u closet
for wraps mul on the other I? a tele
phone booth, which provides for priv?
acy In telephoning. The closet* In tlio
two bedroom* lire exceptionally large.
Tin' Interior bull In u special feature
In lliix design. It open" Into every
room In the back of the house. The
kitchen, the three bedrooms, ami lho
bathroom are all easily reached
through this ball. The stairs to the
storage room In the attic are also In
ihls hull. The bathroom In addition
io all the usual fixtures, is large
enough so thai a shower anil linen cab- '
luel are placed in it. There Is another
toilet between the two bedrooms.
Women's Inconsistency.
I am prone to believe that woman
with accruing years grows none the
wiser. This fact has proven Itself
aver and over. Now again do 1 read
screaming real loud for help when
?he discovered b man beneath her
bed. One would suppose, after nil
the Jokes she has fallen heir to on
this subject, thai she would exhibit
reasonable calm in stich an emer?
gency by making the best of the sit?
uation, hut no!?che Roes right on
yelling "Police!" and losing her head,
thus HjHilllii),- everything, and the
isior devil who. nut of his kindness of
heart took a chance at secreting him?
self bei,,? the Mint- now languishes
In Jail. The time will come w hen men
will cease bestowing these extremely
dangerous attentions upon the fairer
sex, Titen the Joke will take or. a
illfferent aspect ami women wish they

as usual, that there was nothing

TO PLANT ASPARAGUS ROOTS
Qood Results Obtained by Placing In
Row* Four Feel Apart?Some
Grower* Ute Seed.
Qood results cnn be obtained In
starting a commercial asparagus bed
by planting- roots In rows four feel
apart. They can he placed two feel
apart In rows and about eicht Inche
deep. I'Inco about an I neb of rieb
soll in the bottom of the trench an '
spread out the roots carefully befon
covering them with earth. This depll
of eight Inches prevents Injury to I he
roots and. as they develop, more earth
can be worked Into I he trench during
?file process of weeding and cultivation
The gsjeond year the bed must be thor?
oughly cultivated to keep down w.Is
an' conserve moisture, and the third
year cutting tuny be continued for
o-bont three weeks, which gives the
grower ubout half a crop for market.
Although eome growers seem to prefer
starting their nsparngus bed- front
pood, tho beglnuer can doubtless have
better success by trying n few strong
healthy roots.
