out of his waistcoat pocket, opened it,
tapped it, and helped himself to a

his somewhat misshapen nose. It was

that ever I read."
"You can go, Mr, Ganns?" -
"Bre'ndon," said 141x, Ganns, "run

sails from Dover or Folkestone, We'll
reach Paris . to -morrow morning, I
guess, catch the Rapide for Milan, and
be at the Lakes next day. You'll find
we can do so. Then telegraph to this
dame that we start a week hence, You

"You want to get there before we're
expected?"
"Exactly."
He took . another pinch of snuff
and picked up The Times. "Will you
lunch with me here in the grillroom at
two o'c:eck?"
"With pleasure, Mr• Ganns."
Some hours later they met again
and over a steak and green peas Bren-
don reported that the boat train left
Victoria at eleven and that the Rapide
would start from Paris on the follow-
ing morning at half, past six.
"We reach Bevano some time after
noon next day," he said, "and can.
either go on to Milan and then come
back to Como and travel by boat to
Menaggio, where Mr. Redmayne lives,
or else leave the train at Bevano, take
steamer on Maggiore, cross to Lugano,
and cross again to Como. That way
we land right at Menaggio. There's
not much in it for time."
"We'll go that way, then, and I'll
see the Lakes."
Peter Ganns spoke little while he
partook of a light meal. He enjoyed
the spectacle of Brendon's hearty ap-
petite and bewailed his inability to
join him in red meat and a pint of
Burton.
They entered the smoking room
presently and then Brendan, very
much to his surprise, heard an aston-
ishing lecture which left him under
the emotions of a fourth -form school-
boy after an interview with his head-
master.
Mr. Ganns ordered coffee, took snuff
and bade Mark listen and. not inter-

A DUTCH COLONIAL DESIGN
By Molesworth, Went and Secord, Architects.
No type of domestic arehitectere is
quite so definitely distinctive and the
perspective illustrated is an enthusing
view of it at its best. As Is charac-
teristic of Dutch Colonial when well
executed, it commands, rather than
pleads for admiration.
While the most outstanding feature
is undoubtedly the unmistakable Gam-
brel design of the roof, the success of
this home as a whole is entirely due to
harmonious co-ordination.
How truly Colonial are the entrance
with well proportioned glazed door
and Gide windows and the verauclah.
with balcony above. The four brackets
under the roof relieve what would
otherwise be rather uninteresting wall
settees at the .sides of the hay windows
and also create an impression of see
curity without contributing to it. Yon
vcrill notice that the two chimneys ars
placed in the centres of the gable ends
which is a distinctive characteristic
of this type of home.
Other noteworthy features are the
large dormer with three groups of
i caseiu'ent windows and the gablo \4in-
dows on both sides of each chimney to
ventilate the attic,
As intimated by the positions neon-
pied by the entrance and, two bay win-
dows in the perspective, the ground
floor plan showsa centre hall with
living room and dining room at either
side. •
The living room is 15 ft. x 23 ft, and
the fireplace lies a tile hearth, 6 in. x
6 in., red ctelarry tile being recommend-
ed. A fireplace, as yott sen It here, in
the • centre or a wall of sufficient
length to allow a window at each side
is -a very pleasing arrangement. Jur•t
imagine this well exposed to the west;
a Chilly fell tray nearing its end a.
blazing fire in the grate and the light
•
of the setting sun streaming through
the windows. This Is the a sort of
thing to look -forward to and provide
for when selecting a home.
The dining room is 11 ft. x 15 ft.,
but the actual floor area, is slightly
more ou account of the bay window.
A saving of space is effected by the
built in sideboard. French doors lead
to a large verandah, 10 ft. x 15 ft.,
which could be easily converted into
a sunrooln if desired.
