EMBODIES LATEST IN CONSTRUCTION Substantial Brick and Stucco House Is Splendid Model. PUNNED FOR SHALLOW LOT •Seven Big Comfortable Rooms and living Porch—Every Considera tion Given to Comfort and Convenience. By WILLIAM A. RADFORD Mr. William A. Radford will answer questions and give advice FREE OF COST on all subjects pertaining to the subject of building, for the readers of this paper. On account of his wide experience as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he Is, without doubt, the highest authority on all these subjects. Address all inquiries to William A. Radford, No. 1827 Prairie avenue, Chicago, 111., and only inclose two-cent stamp for reply. In five cities at the present time there are five “Own Your Own Home” expositions going on simultaneously. That only gives a hint of the interest that is centered in this subject. Every one you meet is talking home—mostly because of the increase in rents.

These expositions are thronged with people in search of ideas. They want to see how a home looks from the outside, how it appears on the inside, what they are using in bathrooms, how they are building kitchens and a thousand and one other things that make the home a real place in which to live. Perhaps you are one of the many who will be unable to attend one of these expositions. That does not necessarily mean, however, that you cannot get the same Information and some of the inspiration that these oth er folks are getting. If you are In terested In a home of ,your own, you will more than likely get some real ideas from the splendid design shown Wire. It embodies the latest in con struction, the most recent develop ments in household convenience. It is built to be a real home, and, after all, that is the test. It may not be just what you want but then again it will give you 6ome tangible ideas that will aid you In finding the one you want. There is no question about the comfort of this home. As for con struction, it is built to last. To t£e average man the building of a home is one of his biggest jobs during his entire lifetime, and he wants it to last. This house Is built of brick and stucco, a very pleasing combination. The roof is gable, rather steep, with two attic root dormers on each side. With the entrance and first tloor set on practically the ground level, this house offers a particularly in viting appearance and reflects a defi nite impression of hospitality. The entrance partakes somewhat of the Colonial, although built on more square modern lines. A large glass-paneled door opens the way into a reception hall running straight back through the house to the rear. From here rises the stairs to the floor above and from this same hall are the entrances to the living room, dining room and kitchen. A real surprise and treat awaits the visitor to the living room, a great in formal room of good proportions, 15 by 25 feet 6 inches. In the center of the outside wall, facing the living porch, is a large fireplace flanked on each side by double French doors opening out on the porch. The porch, which is 10 by 24 feet, has been screened in. During the winter this covering can be changed to glass and the use of this space continued throughout the year. Additional light t 6 the living room is provided by win dows in front and rear. Stepping across the hall one finds himself in a large well-appointed din ing room, 15 by 14 feet. It is a bright room, conveniently situated with re gard to the kitchen and other rooms. After all the relation of the dining room and kitchen is one of the most important things to the housewife. If she is not fortunate enough to be able to have a maid, and many would rather do their own work, she will soon realize the importance of the arrangement of these two rooms. Every foot means a step, and through out the day these steps mount up and at the same time sap up her energy. In this home the kitchen is small, 10 by 10, which seems to be more or less standard in homes that are be ing erected at the present time. Not much more than 100 square feet are needed in this room. Passing to the floor above we find four bedrooms, 15 feet 4 inches by 11 feet 6 inches each. With windows on two sides they are well supplied with fresh air and the sleepers are assured of cross currents during the night when the windows are open. Ventilation in bedroom Ib of vital im portance to every member of the family. In case more sleeping quarters are needed the attic can be quickly and economically converted into at least two small bedrooms. This house Is suitable for any loca tion, or any sized plot, but it will also be found very useful In a shallow lot, which is quite frequent in suburbs. It is especially adaptable for a short i wide lot. The dimensions are 40 feet 6 inches by 28 feet. Good Bookkeeper. Knick—Does Gray know how to i keep books? Knack —You bet he does!

Isaiah’s Vision of Glory (vv. 1-4). So definite was this vision that the prophet remembered the very time of its occurrence. It meant so much to him that lie could ever look back to it as a day when his ministry took on a new meaning. 1. He Saw the Lord on His Throne (v. 1). Though the death of Uzziah left Judah’s throne empty it was made clear to the prophet that the throne of God was occupied. The Lord was high and lifted up, showing that He is above all kingdoms. This was a peculiar preparation of Isaiah for his work. The one who has really seen God can never be the same again; life has a fuller meaning ever afterward. 2. He Saw the Seraphims Above (vv. 2,3). Just who these beings are we do not know. The word signifies “fiery,” “burning.” They were glorious beings whose business was to wait upon the Lord, to go on errands for Him. They had six wings—two for flight; two to cover their face, show ing reverence; and two to cover their feet, showing humility. These three pairs show that reverence and hu mility are of equal value before God, with activity. The song of the sera phims shows that they saw holiness as God’s supreme attribute. The thrice “holy” perhaps refers to the Trinity. The first choir sang, “Holy, holy, holy,’' and the second choir responded tc this by saying, “The whole earth is full of His glory.” 3. Ttie Manifestation of Majesty (v. 4). “The posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.” The smoke, no doubt,.signified God’s wrath against man’s sinfulness (see Psalms 18:8; 74:1). 11. Isaiah’s Conviction of Sin (v. 6). The vision of God brought the prophet to see himself. It is only in the light of God’s holiness that we see our unholiness. When Peter got a glimpse of who Ciirist was lie begged Him to depart from him, saying, “De part from me; for I am a sinful man, O lord” (Luke 5:8). The prophet not only realized that he was a sinner, but that the nation was a nation of sinners. What the world needs today above all things is a vision of God. 111. Isaiah’s Cleansing From Sin (vv. 6,7). The taking of the coal from the altar shows that it was connected with sacrifice. The fire that consumed the sacrifice was holy fire. When a sin ner gets a vision of God In Christ, the Holy Spirit applies the merits of Christ’s shed blood and cleanses from all sin. IV. Isaiah’s Call (v. 8). Immediately following his cleansing came the call. Men must be cleansed from sin before they shall be called to God’s service. Though God has many angelic beings who willingly go on errands for Him, yet He has er rands upon which only cleansed hu man beings can go. The only ones who can really declare the gospel of God’s grace are those who have ex perienced its saving power. God is asking this same question of men and women. Isaiah readily responded to his call by dedicating himself to the task. He said, “Here am I; send me.” V. Isaiah’s Commission (vv. 9-13). 1. The Sending (vv. 9, 10). He had a most discouraging task before him. He is assured that the people will hear his message, but be unmoved by it. They will even increase in blind ness and deafness to the divine warn ings—they will neither be converted nor healed. Such a hopeless task would only be undertaken by one who had had a vision of God. 2. The Encouaragement (vv. 11-13). Facing this discouraging outlook the prophet raised the inquiry, “Lord, how long?" The Lord in His reply assured him that It would not last forever. The land would be desolate, the cities ; without inhabitants, and the houses ' without occupants; but as the oak re tains its vital substance even long after It has been cut down, so from Judah shall a remnant be saved. The holy seed Is the substance which shall constitute the basis of the kingdom which shall come when David’s sob shuli be king. Must Look to Jesus. If I want to repent, if I want to .•hange my mind and get more and more determined to be good, I must look at Jesus Christ, I must notice how perfectly faultless, perfectly lov- I lng, perfectly patient, perfectly ready I to spend Himself in the service of I others, He is.—The Bishop of London.

The way of the producer would be a straight and easy path to success if he could make the right guess at least half of the time. His brain children have had their spring tryouts and he knows now which have survived. Among the dependable things for summer wear, very simple sport suits are already a success. The word “sport” must be given a broad in- RIVAL OF THE TAILORED SUIT terpretation in connection with clothes this season for it embraces everyday street dress. As a rival of the tail ored suit, sport suits like that shown here, or similar to it, enliven the streets and lend to their wearers at least the flavor of youth. At first glance it seems there is nothing to these suits —just u plain skirt and a jacket or smock or slip-over blouse— but there is in reality much to them. It lies in the choice of material, color, neck and sleeve styles and charac ter of decoration. The suit pictured is made of gray homespun and em broidered at the neck and on the sleeves with blue and white chenille. It has three small pockets, one at each side of the blouse and one, still smaller, at the left o♦ the bust. The narrow belt is made of the material. The skirt, as pictured, is shorter FLOWERS AND FRUITS PREVAIL than the mode dictates —eight Indies from the floor is the limit set for brevity. But in some localities the younger women insist upon shorter skirts and go their Independent wuy with the approval of a considerable number of people. Fashion may decree simplicity In dresses and suits for spring and sum mer, but she is of a different mind about millinery. In every assembly of hats we find them elaborated in many ways; paying tribute to spring by wearing its blossoms and heralding the coming of summer by choosing its fruits and flowers for their adornment. These are the themes, with endless variations, that millinery employs to make Its song of summer, and huts with no flowers or fruits on them, are rare. Another outstanding feature In the new displays of millinery is the num ber of hats with brims more or less wide, and therefore more picturesque than their early spring forerunners. Colors are enchanting, with many soft shades of yellow in great favor. In blues, cobalt and periwinkle have been reinforced by n pule tint, ar riving in company with “Princess Alary pink." Orchid has an army of admirers and gooseberry green is a promising addition to the gay conipuny. In more vivid tones there are “spark” and “lip-stick” reds, rust color and nasturtium shades. Hut none of these colors white, which the dis plays Indicate will predominate for midsummer. In the group of four hats shown here a little glimpse of the great diversity in millinery styles Is given. They are distinctly different from each other. The group includes a leg horn in the natural color, with soft crown and scurf of pale amber georg ette and a wreutli of locust blossoms, A small lint of orchid straw, wreathed with grapes and pansies, has a sash of narrow blue ribbon. A white fab< rlc hat Is dotted with black beads that spatter themselves over the black silk blossoms flattened against the brim. It has a collar and hanging ends of silk braid. Whoever chooses may find tailored, fabric hats and among them those of Batavia cloth, like the hat pictured In bluck, with stiff loops of ribbon and a Jet buckle for ornament. czrrucm rr vutum hm/am union If You Need Strength and Reserve Power Take TANLAC The World’* Greatest Tonic v 1Z Clear Your Complexion with This I 1 I Old Reliable l t —' I Remedy— Sulphur Compound For pimple*, black-headi, freckles, blotches, and tan, a* well a* for more serious face, scalp and body eruption*, hive*, eczema, etc.. u*e thi* scientific compound of sulphur.
