For freedom and independence in house

,are far less stereotyped in contour than in
larger places, where the sites occupied are
necessarily more cramped, and frontage is
so valuable as to be reckoned down to

of light, air, and land is the "rambling

additions made by succeeding occupants, to
an ancient original ; it became, with in-
creasingage, an architectural pro-
blem from the incongruity or unex-
pected angularity of the combined
results. After a few years of building
with a=prim exactness in mechanical pro-
portions, the product of greater thrift and
more advanced ideas of convenience, the
public became weary of the stiffness of
these less artistic farmhouses, and now
again demand the ;low, rambling style for
country villas, and `often realize its ideal at
a sacrifice in ventilation, comfort, conveni-
ence, and economy in the building of these
eoogqentric productions of modern art in
rural architecture. The accompanying il-
lustrations suggest a plan for a house,
which will be commodious enough for the
average citizen, well adapted to an open
situ as to sunlight and air, for both sum-
mer and winter, and economical in building
and maintenance. It is evident that the
nearer square a house is, the less it costs
for siding and paint, and the simpler it is
to frame and erect; while the heat saved
and the oomtort experienced in a house
that is compact and conveniently arranged
about a common center in best appreciated
by those who live where the rooms are like
the chambered nautilus' abode, a rambling
succession of rooms. Yet it is not a very
easy matter to grogp the rooms, in a scivare
house, so as to preserve a desirable isola-
tion of the domestic departments of the
house. The house shown in the engravings

is thirty-five feet square, having a plain,
gable roof, for economy in construction,
durability; and safety from leaking at the
angles. To avoid a box -tike appearance,
the ridgepole is at one side of the middle,
far enough to locate a porch (Fig. 3), at
the northwest corner, and allowing a long
roof slant on the north side, and a short
one toward the south, each of sufficient
pitch to free itself of snow readily. The
monotony of the longer roof is broken by
the two chimneys and a small gable projec-
tion in the center. The front of the house
(Fig. 1) is relieved of any lack of a well-
balanced appearance, by having a very
deep projection ad, the roof, extending over
the twenty-eight feet south of the porch,
and resting upon .brackets. This section,
being treated symmetrically,gives'the effect
of a male building, with an addition the
width of ,the porch. The south side (Fig.
2) has also an extension of the roof, break-
ing the general outline and hooding
over the southwest windows of the second
story.
From the kitchen nin
entrance,
a veran-
dah
extends along the east end, and joins
the roliway to the cellar at the other
corner. This verandah, although a con-
venience and an effective feature, is one
which niust be varied to suit the situation
and purse. It may be omitted or added ist
the pleasure of the builder. Its shade will
be enjoyable in summer.
Some of the desirable features of the in-
terior are seen in the plans. On entering

Ad]Dlning this closet, on one side, is the
hot water tank and connecting range, b
the chimney. On the other side, a sink
and tuba are set along under the windows.
At the opposite end off the kitchen a long
pantry is doeated. This i8 arranged to
open, with double doors, into the kitchen,
and, being in the northeast corner of the
house, although well ventilated with win-
dows at the corner, where the broad mold-
ing shelf is located, yet by throwing open
these doors a uniform temperature is
secured in winter, and the domestic work
also lessened in this way. A cupboard is
fitted up at the other end of the :tantry.
In the corner of the kitchen there is
a low cabinet, built with a broad
shelf above, under the north win-
dow, while at the right a dumb
waiter runs down into the cellar,; this will
be found convenient in the care of milk,
and other perishable household supplies.
It will be noticed that all these rooms are
open to the light and breeze from two
directions. On the second floor (Fig.4) the
slant roof at the north, banked by a row of
closets and the alcove, protects the four
large bedrooms from the cold winter blasts,
while the high southern roof, the attic
above, and north hall windows serve to
ventilate, and relieve the heat of the sum-
mer sun. Abundant window space and
closet room is afforded in every chamber.
The large front room has closets in the cor-
ners, and may receive the interior of a bay
window without the more expensive realiza-
tion. The alcove room at the northwest is
cool for summer, as it extends over the
porch, and all the bedrooms are well
arranged for winter, as thechimneys rise
centrally, economizing heat and affording
connections with every room. A light
storeroom is located over the kitchen. The
attic rooms may bo large, as is indicated

by the dotted lines across the plan. Where
it is possible to have water pressure for
plumbing, bath aocoinmodations should be
added to the basement, first or second
floors, according to the pressure af-
forded. The desirable features of this
design are simple and economical
in construction, with a degree of
uniqueness and character in the appear-
ance, convenience of interior arrange-
ment, with healthful lighting anii ven-
tilation, economy in heating, and small
expense in maintaining the exterior
against the effects of time and weather,
all of which are desirable in a country
house. As there need be no limitation as
to shape of house or location of windows
and doors, the interior should be arranged
for the comfort of the occupants. A sacri-
fice should be made to put in as many as
possible of the modern improvements which
civilization has added to home life. Most
of these cost but little extra, if built in at
first, but are very costly if the house has to
be torn to pieces to reoeive them. Arrange
the grounds about the house so that pure
air and sunlight can enter at every win-
dow. Large trees should not shade' the
house. Deaths from consumption have
ceased when an afflicted family moved into
a dry sunny house. Use a neutral tint,
durable paint.—D. Comings, in American
Agriculturist.
Against Amateurs.
About a hundred French artists hays
held a meeting with the idea of founding
an association, to be entitled "Lee Artistes
Francaise de le Rive Gauche." The object
of the association is to defend French
artists living by their profession against
the invasion of the Salon by amateurs.
Only professional painters, soulptors and
engravers can belong to this association.

northwest, it will be seen that this room, in
the coldest corner of the house, becomes
the medium to protect the other parts of
the building from the severity of the
weather, and occupies the location not ex-
posed to the sun, while it is abundantly
lighted by two windows, at different levels,
along the stairway to the second floor.
This hall is spacious enough to give
dignity to fahe house on entering,
and is so arranged to give
privacy and convenient passage to all
parts of the house. The first room on the
right is a small one, which may be used as
a summer sitting -room, bed -room, sewing -
room, or study, and bas a closet in the
corner. At the end of the hall is a lame,
sunny parlor, or sitting room, openingwith
folding doors into the dining -room. nder
the stairs is a small passageway, with a
cupboard, or closet, at the left, a door into
flee kitchen opposite, and a stairway lead-
ing to the basement or cellae', which shoul
d
be fitted up with :all neoeuary domestic
conveniences, including a laminar milk -
room, if the dairy, requires it. The kitchen
is in direct communication with
the dining -room only, and has a china -

rooms, by doors which int off direct
vision, and afford 'easy communication and
ready access to the cist.rn in the corner.
to the delight and profit of the bright -faced
industrious scholars. The lame thoughtful
lady has also started a Social Club, which is
a centre of culture throughout the county.

tures. In this snmmer alonei Mr. Kennan,
the famous Siberian explorer ; Mr. Rub -
bard, whose noble work in i the establish-
ment of speaking schools for the deaf is so
well-known ; and Major Powell, a leading
eeolegist of the United States, are all
among the number. The influences of these
philanthropic efforts are far reaching ; the
early disbanding of families is prevented, a
love of industrious habits is implanted in
the young girls, and an intelligent interest
in the affairs of the world and in literature
broadens the horizon of many whose minds
are too prone to be limited by the farm
boundaries. The lady whose well -directed
efforts are doing so much for our people is
Mrs. Bell, the wife of the famous inventor
of the telephone. Seldom have wealth and
energy met in more happy combination, for
the one great aim of her life seems to be the

A Young Hero.
The Well -Spring tells the following story
of a real hero who wore the gray during the
late war :
The day after the battle of Fredericks-
burg, Kershaw's brigade occupied Mary's
Hill, and Sykes' division lay 150 yards
ahead, with a stone wall between the two
forces, The intervening space between
Sykes' men and, the stone wall was strewn
with dead, dying, and wounded Union sol-
diers, victims of the battle of the day be-
fore. The air wee rent with their groans
and agonizing cries of " Water 1 water."
" General," maid a boy -sergeant in gray,
' ° I can't stand this."
What is the matter, sergeant?" aeked
the General.
" 1 can't stand bearing those wounded
Yankees crying for water ; may 'I go and
give them some ?"
" Kirkland," eaid the General,; " the mo-
ment you step over the wall you'll get a bul-
let- through your head ; the ekiruliehing has
been murderous all day."
" If you'll let me I'll try it."
" My boy, I Dight not to let yo(r run such
a risk, but I cannot refuse. God protect you!
You may go."
" Thank you sir 1" and with a smile on his
bright, handsome face, the boy -sergeant
sprang away over the wall, down among the
sufferers, pouring the blessed water down
their parched throats. After the ;first few
bullets, his Christ -like errand became under-
stood, and shouts instead of bullet* rent the
air.
He Dame back at night to hie bi
touched.
" Inasmuch as ye have done it
of the least of these my brethren,
done it unto me."
Leprosy in 'Hawaii.
Much has been written about the isolated
leper settlement on the Island of Molokai,
but there are few who have any knowledge
of another band of unfortunates who live
on the little Island of Kauai. They are
located in the Valley of Kalalau, which
oan only be reached by two mountain
passes—one perpendicularly down the
mountain by a sort of hand -over -hand
motion, clinging on to roots of shrubs, etc.;
the other along the entire seaside slopes of
the mountains. Both are exceedingly
dangerous and known only to residents in
Kalalau and their families. There are
eighty-eight souls all told in "Kalalau," of
which twenty have leprosy in its worst
stages. The remaining sixty-eight (rela-
tives of the sick), perhaps, are more or leu
tainted, but from all exterior appearances
there are many whose skin appears spotless
and without a blemish. A more happy and
contented village of natives could not be
found. Daily and nightly there are luaus
with singing and dancing, when a be'rerage
made from the ti root is indulged in. The
sick never mix promiscuously with their
well relatives, but live by themselves at the
head of the valley. There are ten nice and
neatly built wooden houses, cleanly and
comfortably furnished, and fifteen trash
huts. There is a small native place of
worship and -school, conducted by a native
whose efforts seem to be effective. It is
worth mentioning that only natives are
residents in "Kalalau," and the desire of
the people is that their tainted brethren
thus segregated may be allowed to pass
their days of misery within reach of their
families, and provided with such comforts
SE oan be obtainable in this lovely and pic-
turesque valley.—N. Y. Trill►tsne.

Burns Knew Better:.
It was the fate of a praotioal and patrio•
tic Sootehman, of Rochester, to toilet at a
meeting of a certain improvement sooiety,
the while a Shakespearean scholar dilated
upon the virtues of bis favorite writer, At
the close of the meeting the stranger ap-
proached the lecturer, and the following
dialogue ensued :
" Ye think a fine lot o' Shakespeare,
doctor ?"
" I do, sir," was the emphatic reply.
" An' ye think he was mak clever than
Robbie Burns ?" 1
" Why, there's no comparison between
them."
" Maybe no, but ye tell us the !nicht it
was Shakespeare who wrote ` Uneasy lies
the head that wears the crown.' Now,
Robbie wad never hae written sic nonsense
as that."
" Nonsense, sir?" thundered the indignant
doctor.
"Aye, just nonsense. Robbie would hae
kent fine that a king, or a queen, either,
diena gang to bed wi' the croon on their
head. They hang it ower the bank o' a
chair !"—Exchange.
Getting Out of a DifficuIty-
" Will you be kind enough to hold this
ram for me while I open this gate?" said a
modest -Looking Irishman to a young masher
who had just come up, " Why, ce+rtainly,"
replied the masher, as he caught hold of the
ram, while the other proceeded to climb
over the gate. After he had got over he
turned round and thus addressed the mash-
er—` bYou will be surprised to hear that I

A Deaf Mute Lady's
Philanthropy.
Near Baddeck -a sweet American woman,
who has partially adopted Cape Breton as
her home, is spending both time and money
in training the girla of the neighborhood to
useful handicrafts. She bas established free
sewing schools in Baddeck and the neigh-
boring settlements,, where the use of the
needle is systematically teught by trained
teachers. Each of the sixty pupils now un-
der instruction will be given a regular course
in plain and fancy sewing, in cutting and
fitting—in fact they graduate from the
school as trained seamstresses. Many tour-
ists have become interested in this philan-
thropic undertaking, and have purchased
many dainty pieces of the pupils' handiwork,
