Diminutive Twlrler Has Done Won

Regarded as Too Small to Make
Good In' the Big Show.
Little Dick Kerr, midget fllnger of
Gleason's slab corps, has made the
Kast sit up and take notice, writes
George B. Robblns in a Boston special
to Chicago Dally News. Kerr was
much underrated In this section. Now
he Is taken seriously as a "sure thing"
pitcher.
Urging that Kerr was "too small to
make good" in the big show, these
easterners mentioned the oft-repeated
assertion that the White Sox had only
two pitchers. )
"Gleason has won the flag with two
pitchers," they declared.
This lad, Kerr, no bigger than an
ordinary kid of fourteen years, haa
won recognition by hard work.
"Kerr Is a second string pitcher at
the most a good finisher but a poor
starter," said an eastern fan several
weeks ago. "He Is too small to cope
Twith the heavy batsmen of the Ameri
can league."
Three months of American league
history have been reeled off, replete
with startling episodes.
The record of this tiny pitcher cer
tainly entitles him to recognition. 1
It is to be recalled that Kid Gleason
himself was slow to admit Kerr to the
select circle of regular pitchers. The

Kid, too, figured little Dick was too
much of a midget to make good as
a regular. He expected to keep him as

to start games this pygmy has sur
prised his friends and confounded
his critics. He has made good with
a vengeance.

wm AUbteS: Address all Inquiries
to William A. Radford. No. 1827 Prairie
avenue, Chicago, I1L. and only enclose
two-cent stamp for reply.
The determination to build a home
is not arrived at hastily; and after
that object has been fixed In mind
there is required on the part of a
great proportion of home builders the
saving of money, enough to make the
first payment of such an amount that
the . contractor who erects the home,
the . lumber and material dealer who
furnishes the materials, and the bank
er, who many times supplies the
money, are assured that the builder
will stick to his determination. Get
ting ready to build the home requires
time in many instances. After the
site Is secured and the prospective
builder has reached the point when
he will enter Into the contract for the
erection of the home, then comes the
time to select the design of house that
Is wanted.
Ideas of what Is Ideal In a home are
as varied as taste In. dress. Some build
ers would have nothing but a bunga
low, while others would have anything
but a bungalow. A great number of
builders, however, have fixed upon the
stucco house as the most attractive
In exterior appearance and select a
design for this type of house. It is to
this class of prospective builders that
the house shown In the accompanying
illustration will appeal.
Here Is a stucco house that will give
the builders about the maximum
amount of home for his money. It is
of frame construction, with stucco ap
plied to either wooden or metal lath.
or some one of the various sheathing
materials designed 'for this type of
home. Being rectangular In shape, It
is the least expensive to construct.
But by the addition of the sun parlor
at one side, and the garage at the
other, It has k well-balanced, attrac
tive appearance, enhanced by the pan
eied effect In the gable.
The dimensions of this house are
only 26 by 36 feet, but It requires a lot
60 feet or more wide, as the sun par
lor projects 10 feet at one side and
the garage 20 feet at the other. How
ever, the garage may be located at the
rear of the house, or may be smaller,
as this was designed to hold two cars.
The advantage of having the garage
adjoining the house Is that the heat-
L tt .

ing plant In the home may be used to
warm the garage, which is well to do,
as It prolongs the life of the tires and
makes the machine available at all
times.
While the home as shown in the il
lustration is set on a brick foundation,
concrete may be used. The basement
WEBS OF SPUN QUARTZ.
Recently artificial spiders' webs have
been made from threads of spun
juartz. They are wonderfully fine,
n-ith much the same appearance as
strands of real cobweb and actually
catch flies fairly well when the fibers
have been stroked with a straw pre
viously dipped In castor" oil. The oil
takes the place of the gluten in an
ordinary spider's web, giving to the
counterfeit the requisite thickness. It
has even been found possible to at
tract a spider to such a - web by a
tuning fork vibrating near the latter,
thus suggesting the buzz of a trap
ped fly. Philadelphia Ledger.
Definition of Kindness. ,
The teacher of the intermediate
room had been trying to teach her
pupils the value of many virtues
such as truthfulness, honesty, kind
ness, etc. To test their knowledge
she gave them an examination, asking
for definitions for these virtues. fOne
youngster defined kindness In this
way : "Kindness is being kind to every
human creature from a ant on up."

Including the sun parlor. The size ol
the basement provides plenty of space
for the heating plant, storage of fuel
and for a vegetable and fruit cellar
while by the' installation of station
ary tubs much of the laundry work
can be done here in both summer and
winter.
Floor plans that accompany the il
lustration show how 'conveniently the
rooms have been arranged and how
large they are for this size of house,
The living room, 25 by 13 feet, ex
tends across the front. The dining
room, also large, 13 by 15 feet. Is con
nected with It by a double-door open
ing, and adjoining ls a good-sized
kitchen, 11 by 11 feet 6 inches. The
pantry off the kitchen and adjoining
the entry' is another good feature.
The sun parlor is 9 feet 6 inches by 11
feet, an exceptionally large room oi
this kind. It will be noted that doors
open into it from both the living and
dining rooms, so that one end thai
adjoining the dining room may be
used as a breakfast porch. The double
opening into the living room gives spa
ciousness to this room also.
On the second floor there are three
good-sized bedrooms, the bathroom
and a sleeping porch. The latter Is a
comfort-glvlng feature of this design.
It is located so that It has privacy, a
thing to be desired. The bedrooms are
ranged around a central hall, and the
bathroom ls adjacent to all the rooms.
Studying designs of homes is one ol
the greatest pleasures of securing a
home.. The American architects have
combined in home designs the com-

iLCOiD noon
forts that the American family wants,
and also vhave combined these com
forts and conveniences with exterior
beauty. However, what appeals to
one prospective builder will not appeal
to another, and by securing a large
number of designs practically every
individual will find just about the
sort of home he has visualized as be
ing the kind he wants.
To. secure home-building ideas a
visit to the local architect, the lumber
and material dealer, and the contrac-
tor who will be asked to bid on the
building job will be worth while. These
building specialists all have available
a wide range of homes, both perspec
tive view and floor plans. With these
plans before them, prospective build
ers will be able to select the home that
meets his requirements and can be
built for the amount of money he
wants to invest. But In going over
these plans It will surprise anyone
how much real enjoyment he will get.
Home building now is popular be
cause it is the best and practically the
only means of securing a comfortable,
convenient and attractive place In
which to live. Rentable houses are
scarce, and the person who moves now
adays ls glad to get any sort of shel
ter. That Is where the home builder
is better off than the renter. .
Grandmothers Vindicated.
Our grandmothers used to hang a
red flannel petticoat over the window
of a smallpox patient's room, assert
Ing that it hastened the cure, and also
prevented "pitting." Scientists have
now discovered that the red rays do
actually exert a bad effect on the bac
teria of the disease, and a correspond
ingly good effect on the patient.
Jade Favorite Gem in China.
Light green jade is the favorite gem
of China, and it is difficult to get the
stone in uncut form even In that coun
try. Sometimes a Wch Chinaman's es
tate will consist In part of a lump of
jade. Sometimes it can be obtained in
pounds. But even the leading jewel
ers of Hongkong usually obtain It In
cut form.
THE STATE.
That which is substantial and true
In man's will Is what we call morality
and law ; and this is what is divine in
the external objects of history. Anti
gone in Sophocles says: "The divine
commands are not of yesterday or
today ; no, they live without end, and
no one knows whence and when they
came." Moral laws are not accident,
but are reason itself. When these
moral laws or ethical principles, which
compose the true substance of human
ity, have authority la the actions and
sentiments of men, when they are real
ly carried out and maintained, then we
have the state. W. F. Hergul.
Beauty.
Talk as we may of beauty as a
thing to be chiseled from marble or
wrought out on canvas ; speculate as
we may upon Its colors and outlines ;
what is it but an Intellectual abstrac

through the outward environment, It
discovers a deeper and more reul love
