bend 6c tor a copy of " 24 CKAt TbiHA^ nuLiallis,'' 
showing exterior and floor plans of 24 houses that cost from 
>000 up to build. To interest you in our magazine, "THE 
Craftsman,” our free house plans and 
in Craft articles, we will also send you a beautifully printed 
32-page booklet entitled “The Craftsman House.” If you are 
interested at all, both of these books will be very lutful 
to you. 
"THE CRAFTSMAN IDEA" means REAL HOMES, 
not mere houses; it shows you how to save money on use¬ 
less partitions—how to avoid over-decoration, how to get 
wide sweeps of space (even in a small house), restful tones 
that matm and blend—and enables anyone to always have 
a beautiful and ai-tistic home. 
"THE CRAFTSMAN MAGAZINE” treats of building, 
furnishing and beautifying homes—of art—embroidery- 
cabinet work—and kindred topics. In the Magazine each 
month are published the plans of two new and entirely 
difl'erent houses. Already we have shown 126 bouses, and 
you can have your own choice.

Room 301, 41 W. 34th St. New York City 
ders and back ached at night until he 
dreamed that he was back in his college 
days, playing old-fashioned football. Or 
all night he hacked and hacked and sawed 
and sawed, in a maze of trees and chips 
and iron wedges. 
He came, too, to have a little more re¬ 
spect for the clumsy appearing garb of 
the natives. He had always held the felt 
boots, blanket-lined coats and heavy gloves 
in a good deal of disdain. After a day’s 
sawing in the woods, spent mostly upon 
his knees or stooping over, with his feet 
kept in the same position for stretches of 
minutes at a time, his mental attitude was 
more lenient. He could not bring himself 
to “felts,” but he did get a pair of the 
heaviest high shoes two sizes too large, 
and wear two pair of the heaviest socks. 
And then one night it snowed and the 
next morning they sallied forth to work in 
a veritable fairyland. Every branch was 
capped with its burden of white; the pines 
and hemlocks were tents of wonder, 
through whose half open doors at the bot¬ 
tom, dark, dry, inviting looking recesses 
could be seen. The air was as frosty and 
clean and sharp and cutting as the edges 
of their newly ground axes. Each breath 
of it, stinging nostrils and throat as it was 
inhaled, sent life tingling to the tips of 
one’s fingers. 
Mantell with difficulty repressed his de¬ 
sire to shout. He did not know why he 
wanted to do it. But the endless vista of 
trees and snow, far-stretching, the palpa¬ 
ble, unbroken silence of primal Nature 
with him, Man, there in the midst of it, a 
primitive tool in his hand, gave him a 
strange sensation of the ancient glory of 
battle. 
They did a great day’s work! Squire 
Hunderson was taking no chances on the 
weather, and by ten o'clock two of his 
sleds, with the Squire himself in the lead, 
muffled to the chin, puffing great clouds of 
smoky breath into the frosty air, and di¬ 
recting what trees were to be cut out of 
the way, bore in upon them. The great 
logs were heaved and rolled up skids and 
onto the low sleds, and borne creaking 
away down the curving woodland roads. 
That night Mr. Mantell, as he pulled off 
his heavy woolen footgear and slipped into 
his worn but comfortable ex-city Romeos, 
confessed that he was as tired as he had 
ever been after a day’s work, but had 
never enjoyed one more. 
The following few days were busy ones. 
There had been no good ice weather be¬ 
fore Christmas, and now that it had turned 
steadily cold, and snow was also on the 
ground, the “harvest” was on with a rush. 
A load of inch boards was hustled back 
from the sawmill, and the inner wall of the 
ice-house, which had rotted away, was 
hastily repaired. Robert was kept home 
from high school, and every one worked 
early and late. They helped Squii'e Hun¬ 
derson fill his big house, which was near 
the pond, and he put three teams on for 
them, so that their small house was filled 
in less than a day. Then there were sev¬ 
eral houses to be filled for city people, and
