for job shown above or for any other job for that matter can
be bought to best advantage from a concern that carries
large stocks; one that has an established reputation for
square dealing which it guarantees to maintain and one that
is financially able to carry out any contract it may enter
into. The average man builds but once in a lifetime, and the
thoughtful builder will take no chances. We are here to
serve and to please. Consult us freely and by all means get

A CHARMING DUTCH COLONIAL COTTAGE
“Home of Character”
By John Henry Newson
Is is impossible in so small a space to show how, by careful
planning, the grounds set off this charming cottage which over
looks the waters of one of the greater lakes. A study of the floor
space below will convince you that here indeed is a maximum of
comfort and convenience without any sacrifice of space or artis
tic arrangement.
Twenty-four-inch shingles are used on the exterior of this
cottage, which, together with the tight shingle barge and simple
treatment, accentuate the old-fashioned colonial design. The
wide porch extends across the entire front of the house and the
porch is inclosed in lattice, making an out-of-door kitchen for the
warm months.
The living room and library make practically one room, and
the dining room also opens into the living room with a wide arch.
The kitchen and dining room are connected by a service pantry,
and the breakfast room or porch makes an attractive feature.
The second floor contains three bedrooms, bath and a large
sleeping porch; no attic, but basement under main rooms.
This house, 36x37 feet, was built complete, except furnace,
for a little under S3OOO. A furnace would cost about SIOO more.
It should be duplicated for the same sum.
AN INTERESTING DISPLAY
BY JOHN MILLEDGE BOYS
Considerable interest has been
aroused by the display of the different
types of bird houses on exhibition in
the windows of the T. G. Bailie & Co.,
on the seven hundred block of Broad
street. These houses were made by
the boys of the John Milledge school.
They are built after the famous Dob
son designs and are supposed to re
main intact for one season. After this
they are to be taken down and clean
ed.
Along with the construction of these
houses the boys are taught much in
regard to bird protection. They learn
the food used by the different birds
and are thereby enabled to know
those of the birds that are of economic
importance and which are destructive
agents. The boys are also taught the
art of attractiveness in the arrange
ment of the houses around a home and
are given further instruction in the
mechanics of their construction.
It has been suggested that anyone
sufficiently interested in procurring
these houses communicate with Mr. A.
F. Otis, principal of John Milledge, and
he will arrange to have the boys con
struct them.
INDEED, HE WAS A WISE OLD
INDIAN.
An Oklahoma editor tells of an old
Indian who come to his office to sub
scribe for the paper. The editor took the
money, then the Indian wanted a receipt.
The editor tried to talke him out of it,
but Mr. Indian insisted on getting the
receipt. After maknig it out the editor
wanted to know why he was so insistent
about wanting a receipt. The Indian
said: "Me die sometime. Go to big
gat and St. Peter ask if I am good In
dian. I say yes. He say did you pay
the editor for paper? I say yes. He say
where is receipt? I no have it I have to
run all over hell to find you and get re
ceipt.”—Austin Herald.

Ask Yourself These
Questions:
How can I get cheapest Insurance, and greatest
safety from fire?
How can paint bills be eliminated?
How can I get the coolest house in Summer and
the warmest in Winter?
How can I reduce repair bills to a minimum? f
.How can I get greatest returns on my investment?
All these questions have one answer:
BUILD WITH BRICK
There are some few types of construction that
can be used a little cheaper first cost than brick, but
they will not solve any of the above questions, and
consider what you would sacrifice for the future.
It will pay you to investigate.
