"D o n 't g et th a t m yself. The best

It is curious th a t so m a n y fire­
p lace s sm oke w hen it is so sim ple
to build one th a t d o n 't. T he recipe,
acco rd in g to an e x p e rt in the W ash­
ington Post, is about a s follows:
D eterm in e the size of opening d e ­
sired and then select a flue lining
th a t h as an a re a eq u a l to a t le a s t 10
p er cen t of th a t opening. U se e ith er
a sq u a re or a round flue, p re fe ra b ly
a round one. as th a t is th e m o re
efficient. Do not use re c ta n g u la r
flues unless absolutely n e c e ssa ry ,
and in th a t ca se in c re a se th e size
so th a t th e a re a will eq u al a t le a st
12 p e r cen t of the opening.
Build th e fireplace w ith a depth
of betw een 18 and 24 inches. M ore
th an th a t d egth ro b s th e fireplace
of a good d eal of its h e a tin g effi­
ciency. In stall a cast-iro n d a m p e r
J ot the full w idth of th e opening.
T his should be se t so th a t th e c u rv ­
ing back of the fireplace m a k e s a
continuous line w ith the b ack of the
d a m p e r opening.
Above the d a m p e r a t th e back,
flush w ith the top edge of th e o pen­
ing. build a horizontal sm oke shelf
about eig h t inches deep and for the
full w idth eg the opening. Also above
the d a m p e r build a sm oke c h a m ­
