BUNCALOW OF " DNISUAL DESIBH Seven-Room Home Has Many- Good Features. CONTAINS PLENTY OF ROOM Artistic Bay Windows and Dormers Make This Design Different From the Ordinary Bungalow —Rooms Well Arranged.. By WILLIAM A. RADFORD. Mr, Willlami A. Radford will answer questions and give advice FREE OF COST on all subjects Rertaining to the subject of building, for the readers of this puper. On accouat of his wide experience &s Lditor, Author and Manufacturer, he is, without™ doubt, the highest ‘authority on all these subjects. Address all inquiries to William A. ford, No. 1827 Prairle avenue, Chicago, Ill. and only encloss two-cent stamp for reply. Many howe builders object to house designs that are unusual. They say, and usually are corfect, that unusunl houses are excellent as homes, but are not goofd investments. I it should be necessary to sell the pos- sible buyers are fewer for the reason that an odd house will not appeal 10 S0 IMADY DETSOns. However, it is possible to give dis- tion to a standard type of house, ially the bungalow. Architects tically the same inferior ar- d by using different roof zning unusual windows, and siving the porch roof a distinctive freatment fffect changes that take the home out of the ordinary cluss and put it igto a distinetive class. An excellent example of this branch of .the architec t is shown in the accompanying illustration. This home is not out of the ordi v in interior arrangement : neither Is it of wateri- or the standard variety, with plpes leading to. registers in the rooms. If a pipeless furnace is used, it should be located near the center of the house with the large register in the hall, ' F A basement extends under the whole of the house. Here there.are roows for' the heating plant, storage rooms for fuel,~fruits and’ vegetables and a.part sot gside for the laundry and the laundry equipment. Surroundings go far toward making any sort of a home attractive, or the opposite. ~ Home owners, especially those whose houses have considerable space gbout thew, 'are paying more attention to the planting of shrubs, trees and flowers nowadays than ever Bungalows especially are hefore, First Floor Plan. made more attractive by a judiclous planting of shrubs and Jlattices cov- bred with vines, giving an air of privacy that is hards te secure with a two-story or even story-nnd-a-half house. Attention to the yard that sur- rounds the home is a good investment, for it Is a proven fact that every dol- lar invested in this manner increacs the value ot the place two dollars. Speaking of investments—there is none that any man or woman can make that pays better dividends thau a home. Home owners derive a sat- isfaction in their own houses that can searcely be measured in dollars and cents.! But added to this fact is the one that- money invested fn a home lals that often are. used to get un- lusual exterior appearances. It.is.a jstandard approximately square frame [bungalow—but it does not look it. The beauty of this exterior has been ured by the small, but artistic bay iwindews, the four dormers in the roof land the off porches. Remove these features and substitute those that or- dinarily are shown in bungalow de- signs and this would be an ordinary house, Builders who erect such a bungalow as this need never be afraid ithat buyers would be scarce should it be offered for sale. The bungalow shown Is 32 feet iwide and 30 feet deep, which is, com- paratively, a small house. Yet it con- 'tains six fooms—and all of the rooms .are of good size. ! In construction the bungalow is of wood frame set on a concrete founda- tion. The roof is of ornamental tile. The front entrance leads to a recep- ‘tion hall that extends through the first floor. Mo the right of the hall is the living room, 15 by 11 feet, G inches; to the left is the dining room of exactly the same size. At the rear of the dining room is the kitchen, 12 Second Floor Plan, by 11 fect, 6 inches. At the rear of ‘the first floor is a bedroom, 13 by 10 feet, 6 inches, and, being a corner * room, is a well ventilated, pleasant sleeping room. Between the bedroom ‘and the kitchen is a lavatory. The stairs to the second floor run out of the hall toward the back of the first floor and lead to a central ‘hall on the second floor, where there ‘are two bedrooms and the bath room. All of these rooms are in the dormers. ‘Qne of the bedrooms is 9 by 15 feet, |while the other is 9 by 9 feet, 6 {tnches. E Seldom are bungalows of this size iplanned so that they contain three Ibedrooms, but it is done here, and done in such a way that the cost of the home is not materially increased. The arrangement of the rooms and the dimensions of each one are shown on the floor plan that accompanies the exterior view of the house. This home is of a size that may be heated by either a pipeless furnace : \ usually comes from systematle sav ing. Systematic saving requires an incentive, and there is no greater in- centive than acquiring the ownership of a \comfortable, attractive home. To build a home, of course, re- qulres that the builder have a certain percentage of the cost to pay down and may pay the balance in monthly or yearly installments. To get this first, or *down payment” saving is re- quired. There is no time like the present to start the home building fund—and it is surprising how soon there will be an amount sufficient to | secure 2 home—one like that shown in the accompanying fllustration. Do You Believe It? ‘War stories are very prevalent just mow, but one of the best is provided by a young army veteran in Bradford, Evug, who has pretty well circum- navigated the globe on two or three| occasions, Among other places where he has scen service was with Kitch-' ener in the Soudan, and he tells aj very interesting story of what is prob- | ably the most novel musical “instru-| ment” that has yet been invented. At' the battle of Omdurman, the native women followed up their troops, car-) rying sacks of stones for slings, babies on their backs, and other impedimenta. When the natives’ attack was turned into a rout, and they faced about for | the retreat, the Britishers were as- tonished to find the feld covered with babies who hpd been tbrown away in | the flight. The camp humorist, finding | that there was a great variety of muslcal tones displayed in their wails, picked out a suitable eight, set them up on a plank, and, by a little encour- aging, obtained a complete octave, from which, by gentle punching, he got a variety of music.

Furthermore, the extreme heat of the furnace cast some doubt on the safety of the camera, with its charge of cellulold ribbon, and while the exposure was made, two men stood ready to hurl the operator to a cooler place if anything happened.
