kitchen. On the first floor, which only
extends over part of the house, and to
which leads a picturesque inner staircase
at one end of the hall, are two more bed-
rooms. The interior is in many places
ornamented by means of carving, painted
in transparent oil-colours, the furniture,
specially designed and also made by M.

M. Mikkelsen's house at Naerum has
also been very happily placed, in charming
environs. It has all the dignified simpli-
city and other characteristics of the old
Norse timbered houses, and is, to boot, both
roomy and very cosy. 000
Dr. E. Schaffer's house at Holte, Den-
mark, like most of the timbered houses
only used as a summer residence, is
built by M. C. Braestrup, the architect.
It enjoys an excellent position in a
very pretty neighbourhood, well wooded,
amongst hills and lakes. It was originally
only a small house, but has been mate-
rially enlarged, the additions being effected
in an able and happy manner, resulting in
picturesque corners and much increased
accommodation. 0000
M. Kaj Bojesen, the well-known Danish
craftsman in silver, has built himself a
charming timbered toy house, for it really
is not much more, though very ingeniously
arranged. It stands on the border of a
lake, in the midst of luxurious vegetation.
This clever little cabin is decorated, both
inside and out, with quaint carvings, though
of distinct artistic merit, and other amusing
devices, and is entirely an individual Boje-
sen creation. Next to this, a friend, M.
Bregno, the sculptor, has built his little
shanty, which also bears testimony of an
artist's handiwork. 000
The last two of the present series of
illustrations (p. 28) show a wooden house
of a different type, the summer residence
of M. Ove Rohde, Danish Minister of the
Interior, of which M. Baumann is the
architect. It will be noticed that the outer
walls are covered with boards, no logs
being visible. 0000
