haps, that none of his bed-
rooms are larger than 12 ft. by
11 ft., although no doubt
many people would find that
sufficient in a case of this
kind, when a certain amount
of furniture ordinarily found
necessary might be dispensed
with.
So much for the designs we
have selected for illustration.
Among the others are some
which possess good points for
which credit should be given,
though in some cases the good
points are obscured by faulty
drawing.

flats of allowing the servant’s bedroom to be
entered from the kitchen is not one to be com-

entrance, and that the aspect of the larder had
been north rather than west. In “ Chansit’s ” some-
mended. “MDCL” only provides three bed-
rooms. He sends a design, illustrated by a
somewhat weak perspective, of a simple and quiet
character, with brick-mullions to the windows.
“Posset’s” hall would be insufficiently lighted
from the turret balcony on the roof, and it would
be quite impossible to find head-room under the
stairs to reach the bedroom at the south-east
corner. The direct access between the kitchen
and the dining-room is not a good feature.
“ Borneo ” sends a good plan with economy of
passage and corridor area. It has a quiet stone-
mullion treatment with thatched roof. One could
wish that he had as might have been done)

from the hall to the kitchen lobby is only 2 ft.

facing the sea to be entered direct without the
protection of a porch or vestibule. “ Shielin’s ”■
plan is a simple and direct one, consisting of a.

by 18 ft., is lighted by windows under a verandah
roof, and by a light over a low roof at the fireplace
