At tbe same time there Is no more attractive house than the co­ lonial. Sound Muffling Now Demanded in Residence Plan Home for Cold Days as Well as Warm Proper bouse construction will go a long way toward solving the problem o f children and grownups living to­ gether comfortably. This problem occurs In every house­ hold o f which children are members. When guests are being entertained, the children usually are sent upstairs and are warned to be absolutely still lest the guests be annoyed by tbe sound o f footsteps on the floor above. Even more distressing is the mother’s at­ tempt to keep her guests distracted, while vrster ts being drawn for baths or while tbe plumbing Is being flushed In the bathroom overhead. Even If guests are not present, when father comes home with nerves all on edge from the racket o f a day’s work In office, store or factory, the chil­ dren’s noise Is unwelcome disturbance. The maxim that children shonld be seen but not heard often Is carried so far that they must be scolded and repressed Into quiet. So for the sake o f the kiddles as well as o f their elders, sound mnffiiDg ts becoming part o f the standard defi­ nition o f livability. Cp-to-date home­ builders now demand qualities o f con­ struction which their p a re n t» would not have thought o f requiring Thor­ ough Insulation Is the first o f these qualities, and sound deadening Is tbe second. Every home-minded individual should set aside two days for tbe planning o f the home. I f a bouse Is planned on these two days sight will not be lost o f the primary purpose o f a borne. The first day Is the hottest day of summer when rooms resemble ovens and when sleep Is next to Impossible. The second Is the coldest day In win­ ter, when tbe breath can be seen In the north bedroom and when the coal heap Is the only thing that melts. For years we have been paying too much attention to generating beat and too Uttle to keeping It where It belongs. Only In the last few years have scientists found the solution by ap­ plying tc buildings tbe principle of heat insulation around which house­ hold refrigerators are bu ilt It simply consists o f placing In the walls and roof o f a bouse a material which Is a natural barrier to the pas­ sage o f h eat In winter tbe Insula­ tion keeps out the cold.

Wall Paper In small rooms most people think It necessary to select tiny wall paper patterns, but this is not always wise. Small close patterns with almost no background, shut In a Uttle room, mak- Ing It seem even smaller than ft Is. A good-sized pattern In light clear colors, with plenty o f light background show Ing will do much to make a tiny room seem larger. Small scenics with per- spectlve In the drawing are an ideal selection. Knotty Woods Again Coming Into Favor Imitation Is a sure sign o f apprecia­ tion and it is but a short step from the growing admiration for the old- time rooms paneled in knotty pine, to the present day fashion which favors the skillful use o f other woods con­ taining charming variations in grain effect. This may seem to be something of an Innovation, for, except In the case o f the cedar chests, which ore so o f­ ten seen In bedrooms and halls, are always liberally bespeckled with knots, clear wood had come to be con­ sidered essential. Hat an inspection o f old furniture and the Interior trim In rooms o f other days, reveals that this has by no means always been the same. In fact, many examples o f the use o f knotty wood can be found, and when skillfu lly done, the effects are roost Interesting. The present tendency to use knotty wood is, therefore, not new. Supporting and emphasizing this trend o f taste are the very real ad­ vantages o f conservation o f wood re­ W H E R E SHE AG REES Know What You Want Before Starting House The man who has i definite amount o f money be can a fo r d to spend on his house— and no more— should have his mind made up before he starts ! out on Just what he wants and be should also make sure that everything Is in the contract. In other words, plana and specifications shonld be thorough. Changing almost any little thing In a house after the construc­ tion has started runs Into money. | Therefore the wisdom o f having a | plan made out by an expert In the drawing o f specifications and the de­ signing o f houses. sources and reduction o f construction costs. It Is this angle o f the subject that Is emphasized by the national committee on wood utilization, which operates in connection with the Fed­ eral Department o f Commerce. As this committee points out, small, tight knots do not mean defects either In beauty or strength, and the differ­ ence In cost between d e a r grades and those having a fe w tight knota la as mneb as 50 per cen t This is a real Item In the cost of building. F or Instance, the growing practice o f using knotty American walnut fo r the portion o f a floor nor­ mally covered by rugs reduces tbe cost, making U economical to use this execept Iota fry attractive and de­ sirable flooring, whereas. I f nothing but the clear grade were used, the cost would be too g re a t The same Is true o f interior trim. The grain e f ­ fects in knotty walnut are most In­ teresting and such wood Is being used fo r this purpose with very satis­ factory results and at a cost which permits the use o f this exceptionally beautiful wood, even In homes o f very moderate price. / “ Well, if you're gonna fuss with uie sll day I*m Jes going out and take In a movie.* “ W ell, Just you wait a minute." “ Why ts there something else you want to s a y !“ "N o I I'm going to the movies’ with you." “ Stop, Look and Liatan F* Of llatanera therv ara two klnda: Thíra ara *ha llatapara trua.

C H A P T E R III Enmeshed A fortnight later the whole o f the little city o f Molsson wns In a ferment owing to the arrest ot one o f Its moat respected tradesmen. Citizen IVseze. who, anyone would have thought, was absolutely above suspicion, had been put to the Indignity o f a summary perquisition In his house, lie had pro tested— as was only natural under the circumstances— and In consequence of this moderate protest he had been dragged before the chief of section at Mantes and had to submit to a most rigorous and most humiliating loter rogatory. Nay m ore! f ie was de talned for tw o whole days, while his Invalid w ife and pretty little dnugh ter were well nigh distraught with anxiety. Then, on the top o f that, there fo l­ lowed another perquisition; Just as It anyone could suspect the Deseze fam lly o f treason against their country They certainly had never been hotly In favor of the extreme measures taken by the revolutionary governmeni —such as the execution o f the erst while king and o f M arie Antoinette, cl decant queen of France— hut Cltl zen Deseze had always abstained from politics, lie had been wont to say that God. oot men. ruled the destinies o f countries, and that no doubt whai wns happening these days In France occurred by the will o f God. or they could never occur at all. lie for his part was content to sell good vintage wines from Macon or Nulls lust a* his father bad done before him. and hla grandfather before that, for the house of Deseze. wine merchants ot Molsson.

Poor Hector Denote himself had not much hope on that score. He was a pious man. It la true, hut hla piety consisted In resignation to the will or God. Nor would he have cared much If God had only chosen to slrtk# si him ; It was the fate o f his Invalid w ife (hat wrung hla heart, and th* future o f hi* young daughter that te r rifled him. lie had known the citizen commissary practically all bis life. Lauz*f was not a bad man, really. Perhaps he had got hla head rather turned through tils rapid secession from his original situation at packer In the Deseze boose o f business, with s bed underneath the counter In th* bark shop, to that o f chief o f section In th# rural division o f the depart­ ment o f Seine et Olsn, with an official residence In Mnntea, a highly Im­ portant post, considering Its proximity to Paris. But all the same, (jiu zet was not a bad man. and mast have kept some gratitude In his heart for all the kindness shown tn him hy ths Deseze family when he was a lad In their employ. But In spite o f every appeal Lautet remained stony hearted. “ I f I did anything for you. citizen on my own responsibility.“ he said to Deseze during the course o f an Inter rogatory, “ 1 ahoold not only lone my position hat probably my head Into the bnrgnln. 1 have no III will toward you. but I am not prepared to take such a risk on your behalf." “ But my poor w ife." Deseze pro tested, putting bis pride In hla pocket and stooping to appenl to the man who had once been a menial In his pay. “ S lit Is almost bedriddeo now and has not long to live, ('c o ld you not exercise some benevolent author Ity for her sake?* Laurel shook ht* bead. “ Impossi­ ble.* he said decisively. “ And my daughter," moaned the dls trad ed father, "m y little Madeleine la oot yet thirteen. What will be her fate? My God. l-atizetl H are you no trowels o f compassion? Have oot you got a daughter o f your own?” “ 1 have,“ Lauzet retorted curtly, “ and therefore I have taken special care to keep on the right side o f the government and never to express an opinion on anything that la done for the good o f the state. And I should advise yon. Citizen Deseze. tn do lik e wise, so that yon may earn for your­ self and your fnmlly some measure of mercy for your transgression*." And with this grandiloquent phrase Lauzet Indicated that the Interview was now at an end. He also ordered the prisoner to be taken back to Mola son. and there to be kept In the cells until the following day. when arrange ments would he complete for convey Ing the I»e*eze fam ily under’ eseorf to Purls.
