A small house fixed up in this way attracts attention because of its beauty and home-like appearance, while a large expensive house attracts attention because of the display which is suggestive of the large amount of money required to build It and keep 0QGC)0Q00 OQQQQOQGOGQQQOQQQQOQ Chicago, Jan. 11.

Twenty-two and one-half by 30 feet is hot very large for a house, but when the rooms are nicely arranged it gives accommodations for a small family and offers many conveniences and a great deal of comfort.

How much better It is to own a little house like this and be snug and comfortable than it Is to rent a large showy place and hustle to turn all the money you make over to the landlord. A good many young fellows have started in a house like this and after prospering financially have built on a more elaborate scale. When these men become confidential, when they come right down to plain facts and treat you to a heart to beart talk, nine out of ten of them will confess that they never enjoyed life so well as when they lived in the little house that was presided over by the woman who entered heartily Into all the little details of finishing and furnishing. This house is not a sentimental little dove cot by any means; it Is a sensible six room house with a satisfactory living room big enough to move around in and light enough even in a dark day; but what I particularly like about this plan Is the kitchen, pantry and back vestibule with the comfortable back porch. It is a good sensible pantry with shelving placed In a convenient manner and a window for light, air and ventilation.

It is not necessary to have a pantry window very large or to have it admit a great deal of sunshine. In this case the window is covered with the back porch, It. Is small, It does not inter We solicit a share of your trade. Prompt service and satisfaction guaranteed. L.

P. SCHRADER. PHONE 36. Attention Farmers! MISCELLANEOUS. The New York Evening Post trembles for the effect of the shock upon society following the abolishing of the railroad pass.

There never was more than one real class distinction In this country, says the Post. Some people had more money than others, to he sure. Some lived more luxuriously and ostentatiously. Some had handles to their names, being colonels, judges, senators, presidents, and the like. But all these distinctions were superficial.

The real cleavage was between those who were the servants and those who were the masters of transportation agencies; those who paid fare and those who rode on passes. There was hardly a hamlet too humble to contain one or more members of this aristocracy. Shippers, politicians, editors, even clergymen, carried the stamped patents of their nobility. In the real heydev of pass-giving, the friends of the friends of the friends of the great secured favors for themselves. Undergraduates at the western state universities, which are usually situated at the state capitals, went to their local assemblymen for passes on which to go home for Thauksgiving and the Christmas holidays.

Every tiniest service to the railroad corporation itself was requited by magnificent largesse. What, do the initials of this road stand for? asked a traveler of a lady who sat beside him. Cheapest, Best and Quickest, replied the lady ingeniously. Madam, interposed an official of the road who sat unrecognized in the seat behind, here is a life pass over all this company's lines. Such were the stories told in the great days that are gone.

Not since kings went about flashing signet rings and knighting casual acquaintances, has there been anything like their glamor and their expansiveness. It in running order. There is a great deal more genuine satisfaction in the artistic beauty of a small place than there is in the flaunted display of dollars when used to impress the community with one's social importance. The littleness of human nature crops out in expensive house and lawn decorations more offensively sometimes than in any other way. If a man is worth a good deal of property, there is of course no objection to the using of a part of it for If you are entitled to a pension, or an increase of pension, it will pay you to see IV.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOQj fere with the shelving and in fact it is right, the pantry is right and the kitchen is right. This little house has a front hall that is just as pleasant and attractive as front halls in some larger houses and it offers just as many conveniences.

it meets the wishes of a great many housekeepers that it should connect with the kitchen, a requisition that is not always easy to meet. I know of a similar house which is owned and occupied by a young couple, noted in the neighborhood for their thrift and good sense. They Man born of woman is on the average hard to please. If a president calls in his cabinet and all the party leaders for a conference and is governed by their advice before he dares do anything, men say he is vacillating, and a poor, crooked stick any how. They say that what the country needs Is a president, with a big P.

If on the other hand the country gets hold of a president who goes on the jump and does things, and tells the fellows about it afterward, men say he is a usurper of power, a czar, a subverter of the constitution. President Roosevelt is to find out just how many kinds of a b-a-d man he is before the week is out. Governor Hoch is elected for two years. The chances are that he will not be impeached and will be permitted to serve out his term. By the unwritten law of his party he will retire at the end thereof.

Then what does the Kansas City Star expect to gain by a continuation of its rnudslinging campaign against Hoch? The Star failed to defeat Hoch and it is going to fall down again in its fight on Curtis. PUBLIC SALE Having quit farming and moved to Green, we will sell at Wm.

WORK DONE PROMPTLY. a home built to his liking, hut how often we see such men adding a lot of showy decorations that are entirely out of keeping with the general surroundings, done especially to attract attention or to show that he is able to spend money in this way. Such men are sized up for what they are actually worth. Their money and possessions do not count with the general public as they would like to have them count. The show is recognized merely as a shine or polish that is likely to wear off and reveal the inferior1 metal underneath.

The only genuine comfort I ever see is the home life in small houses where no members of the family are taxed beyond their strength or means to keep It up. There is an alcove bedroom in the front of the house which is especially valuable as the children are growing up. It gives an opportunity to supply a room all to themselves and at the same time have them near enough to look after them at night. Those of us who have had experience in this line understand that drinks of water are very commonly required between the hours of 11 at night and five In the morning. It is a pleasure to supply these little wants, but I have generally noticed that such chores are accomplished a little bit easier when the youngsters are near at hand.

We never forget the time when our youngsters required such attention. We may not realize just at the time what it means to ns; but my advice is to pay particular attention to the little whims and fancies of children, ridiculous as they may seem to us at the time. The little ones remember those things as they grow up and the older folks are not liable to forget them. The memories are pleasant ones and they are well worth cultivating. In selecting a house plan remember the little folks and make provisions for them.

W. G. MEALS, CASH BUYER OF Butter, Eggs, Poultry, Hides and Hay Mrs. Cora Lewis, the able club woman, says there is too much of a tendency to build churches to save souls after they are lost, and not enough interest in establishing life saving stations to keep boys from going astray by amusing them. But has Mrs.

Lewis ever tried to amuse even one hoy? There are boys and boys; and there are times when nothing short of a can-can will amuse some boys. 605-7 Fifth St. Phone No. 279 At Armours Old Stand. POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

One of the easiest things is not to fool people when you are lying to them to do have planted several Virginia creepers which are rapidly covering the back porch.

This spring they fitted frames to the posts, covered the frames with wire netting, put on a screen door and call it their kitchen parlor. It makes a very attractive addition to the back of the house and it makes a very convenient work room in hot weather.
