A mistake in the back door in this in¬ 
stance has since been remedied. The steps 
should not descend directly from the 
door; it is awkward for entering or going 
out with the hands full, as one must 
often do. These steps have now been 
turned around and descend from a stoop 
that has been built out from the door so 
that the door can open on a level. This 
was, of course, an added expense; that 
ought to have been arranged for when 
planning the house.

KNO-BURN Metal Lath is proof 
against moisture, decay and plaster acids. It 
is made with a mesh that the plaster is bound 
to stick to. It is simple to apply and its 
use is a real economy.

for in the first expense. One naturally 
wants such a thing in order to be out- 
of-doors as much as possible. An Italian 
job man was found to build this one and 
he took the keenest interest in making it 
and the rustic seats and table. When the 
vines that have been planted shall have 
grown into good screens it will be, per¬ 
haps, a thing of beauty as well as a joy 
forever, for this was built right from the 
start. 
As for the bathroom, the color scheme 
is clean, cool and simple. The walls are 
tiled half way up, then the same creamy 
hard finish as the rest of the house, with
