Its friends are le gion and the army etill grows. Chiefly accountable for this is its saving of steps and stair climbing. Next is the home Atmosphere cozmess insi it , always pruviucs. It simply adapts itself. . Likewise it is adaptable to most any conditions. Its possibil ities in design are unlimited. Re gardless of the character or shape of the , lot the bungalow can - be planned . to fit it without usually any serious handicaps. It is tho most elastic of buildings and more over can be. built under ordinary conditions much the cheapest. " Particularly is this the fact since the development of the Economy wall for common brick structures. This wall permits the average bun galow to be built, as cheaply as with . any other . material on the marfcet today, and lar morer snb tantially, more permanently Cryrsafe. ;I?;haa.cut a ;ix:sUce.;-"Tbi8'i'aiti.(niIarllan' offers on vjha Commoa TlAr V.tv,if.t..... ttWlWtitW."'
