Rad ford, No. 1S27 Prairie avenue. Chicago, 111., and only Inclose two-cent stamp for reply. With the imrense of building costs and the changed conditions ttf modern life, tbe big, old-fashioned, house with Its many large rooms, requiring' al most endless work on the part of the housekeeper, has passed. Today with the automobile and moving picture show and numberless other outside In terests, people spend less time wltliiq^ their own four walls and a dllTereut sort of house is better adapted to their needs. Houses are smaller, the rooms are fewer and are made to serve more than one purpose by the application of the space-saving equipment which was especially designed for small apartments. The bungalow style of house Is a favorite with many people. The convenience of having all of the rooms on one floor, with the elimi nation of stair climbing, appeals to women and construction cost can be held to a minimum. In spite of this new tendency, how ever. there are many people who do nut cure to carry it to an extreme, pre- fertng to have the sleeping quarters entirely separate from the other rooms, instead of converting the living room and dining mom Into sleeping rooms at night. For these people the bungalow shown will nlTer the desired privacy and at the same time he a house which is not expensive to build nor a burden to take care of. This house, which Is of frame con struction on a concrete foundation, occupies a space 42 feet (5 inches deep and 35 feet wide. -A concrete porch extends across the entire front and an outside brick chimney for the lireplace is a decorative feature. Only that portion of the porch directly In front of the entrance Is roofed. The two ends of the porch are finished in an attractive pergola elfect. The front entrance leads into a re ception hall which extends clear through the house to the bathroom at the rear. At the left are two good- sized bedrooms, each provided, with a roomy closet. In the hall there are two more closets. These closets make the house especially attractive to women. From the hall a stairway leads to the basement. On the right two doors open into the living and dining rooms. Though none of the rooms are large, the liv ing room is of a comfortable size. French doors open from It onto the porch and a fireplace at one side adds to the hominess. There Is a wide door way between the living room and the dining room, directly behind it. From the dining room there are two doors, giving access to the kitchen and to a passageway between the kltcljen i and bjU'k porch. The kitchen Is <*>m- pactly arranged with built-in cases to 1 simplify the work «f preparing meals. Off of It is a pantry with a large amount of additional shelf space for storing provisions.. There is an out side entrance to the basement at the rear. n n One 10-room house and lot on Mu strove Stive*. “One 4-room house and lot on North Sloan Street.

' ■ Door Binding Prevented Little repairs often go a long way toward preventing large upkeep ex penses. One or two years after a house Is built cracks will <le\eh.p In the plas tering. certain doors will begin to hind and scrape on the floor when opened or elosed. Anyone planning to bnihl nat urally would like to know ho.v this can he avoided. Improper\fruming in the supports of the first floor is a common cause df these troubles. In any house there will be one or two girders running across the house somewhere near the center that sup port one end of the first floor j^Rts while the other ends rest on the foun dation wall. This girder is nearly al ways made of wood, with the joints resting on top of it. When this is done trouble is sure to follow.. The wood girder will shrink as much ns a qunhter to a half inch, consequently the ends of the Joists which rest on the girder will settle that distance, while, of eourse. the ends resting on the ma sonry wall will not settle at all. This causes cracks In plastering throughout the house and endless trouble. with doors. N 1 There are two ways of avoiding this difficulty. One is to use a steel beam as a girder. This steel beam eosts very little more than ^ wooden beam, ind, of course, It will ndTs]rt;.iok. The other method Is to frame the wood girder so that the bottom of the girder comes flush with the bottom of the joist. A 2-by-4 can he spiked onto each side of the girder and the'joist notched over it to give, the proper hearing. " hen the girder is framed in this way the top of the post supporting It will come right up to the bottom of the Joists. Then any shrinkage that takes place will be the same at both ends of the Joists, and as a result the floor will stay level, doors, will open and close easily and the plaster will not crack from the settling of the floor. city limits, on north .side West- Main Street and West side North Bell Street.

The first is that In which wide siding and similar forms of lumber are employed to give the characteristic exterior finish mf>st com mon in frame houses. Another type of frame exterior which is gaining rapidly in public favor is^that obtain able by the use of wooden shingles to completely cover the walls. A combination of these two also is employed, in which the first-story finish may he of wide siding with shingled gables, or vice versa. The wall con struction used for the frame hons* is lhatjjj studding over which sheathing and building paper are placed In prep-, a rat ion tor the exterior covering. , H «K ■« m Pain In Back & Sides “F OR A LONG TIME,” says Mrs. Dora Payne, of Huntington, Tenn., "I felt listless, tired and worn-out.
