INTRODUCTORY.
II HE object of this publication is to put into the
most compact form, a general compilation of my
form . designs, which have been published and copy-
righted from time-to-time, in my smaller books.
Another object has been that parties ordering my
smaller 608-page books, would often complain of an
insufficient number of plates from which to indicate
their desires.
I believe that with this publication, most anyone
can secure an idea or two, at least, sufficient to ex-
plain their needs in plan arrangement, and form a
nucleus or basis on which we can successfully de-
velope and work-out a satisfactory plan.
Small books of plans have been published hereto-
fore by so-called plan associations, and publishing
companies, but nothing has yet been produced by a
regular practicing architect on this sftipendious scale,
and devoted entirely to moderate-cost houses. „
When it is considered that nearly every page of
this book contains very expensive plate-matter, for
which drawings and cuts must first be made, some idea
of its cost of production can be imagined, therefore,
it is hoped, in the interest of better house plans, that
purchasers will loan this work freely as an incentive
to ones neighbors to improve attractively, and thus
enhance the value of large residential districts.

This book is a work of building information, not a highly polk
picture book. It contains many plans and all possible information th.
jive its readers for the price of same .
The main object of this book is, that parties intending building ma.
bled to more intelligently describe their wants and needs in plan and a.

The designs given herein will probably serve as a basis on which t
ress your desires in regard to plans. By referring to a portion of one, a. ,
ortion of another, you can give us a clear enough outline from which to wt
ii this manner we can generally arrive very promptly at about what is wan
A CHOICE AMBITION.
Building a home is a choice ambition, especially to the family paying
!mple existence is a thing of the past, at least, to the progressive man -
>man. Many artistic homes are found in different parts of the country, but the
(rage house owner does not know to whom to go, to secure artistic and prac-
1 results.
INFERIOR DESIGNS ARE MONUMENTAL EYE-SORES.
A modern and progressive up-to-date individual would not th'uk of wearing a
garment unless taken from some authoritive plate of fashion, aud at that, a new
garment is usually in use less than a year's duration. Yet many will allow a
novice to draft plans of their building, which will be an eye-sore for genera-
tions, when for less money, at the outset they can secure ideas and drawings
of an architectural expert whose aim, for reputation's sake alone, will be t<
produce the best possible effects for the least sum of money.
AN AGE OF INVENTION.
Look around you, see what is being done in mechanical inventions, then look
at some of the buildings which go up now-a-days, many of them being copies of
plans built thirty and forty years ago. The reason of this is that many a per
son is content with ordinary results, and usually having no. one to advise them
otherwise, go ahead on the same old outlines. Nothing expresses your progres-
sive individuality more than a modern place of abode. It talks volumes for you

POINTS TO LOOK AFTER.
The planning of a house, where expensive materials and labor are considered,
should not be left to unskilled hands. Allow the lady of the house to have con-
siderable say-so in the floor arrangement especially. They have to live in the
house day and night and a poorly planned house is generally more expensive
than a modern practical plan.
THE NECESSITY OF PRELIMINARY PLANS.
it is seldom that one gets a suitable arrangement the very first time, there-
fore it is necessary to first send the plans in sketch form so as to make them
handy for approval, or disapproval of certain parts as you see fit. Our greatest
difficulty is in getting a client's first ideas. And this is sometimes more tedious
than making the plans. We have never yet failed to please any one where they
have treated us with due consideration.
If you have any printed designs from which you wish to adopt certain orna-
mental features, we can embody them in your designs and endeavor to still Im-
prove on any suggestions offered.
MY TERMS. * in-
I agree to make your plans for a stated sum, and therefore, would not b.
terested in making your building unnecessarily expensive in order to increase
my commission, as is often done, and for reputation's sake alone, would endeavor
to design the very best building possible for the money.
You can very readily realize that an architect at a distance would be likely
to design something novel and different to the common-place, he would be dis-
interested as to who was contractor, and would probably save you the cost of
plans many times pver.

IMany send plans to my office of a building and I often show them where
o 20 per cent can readily be saved, and at the same time secure a more at-
tive house than at first contemplated. This is where competent advise is of
rtical value.
It will pay you to travel a thousand miles rather than not procure plans of
office, although I guarantee to serve you by mail in equally as satisfactory
tanner and suit you on the preliminary plans.
PERSONAL CRITICISMS.
Many parties who have plans made eleswhere send their plans to me for
ticism before undertaking the personal responsibility of building, and for
eh criticism I make a charge ordinarily of $3, and in all cases will give a fair,
tprejudieed and impartial decision.
COLORED DESIGNS.
If you are going to place an order for plans and would like to see how cer-
ain designs look in colors and will tear out such pages, I will color them and
/ou can paste them back into book.
The color effects which we produce in the completed buildings are worth the
price of plans alone.
If you do not wish to cut out pages, simply put a slip of paper between the
pages you want colored, and enclose postage for return and I will promptly re-
turn book or you can probably sell your book to a friend and order another,
calling for such designs as you desire colored, which will be done free, to the ex-
tent of two.
THE "ARCHITECT -BUILDER."
It Is right and proper that all builders should be able to draw more or less,
but it is absolutely impossible for a man to be an up-to-date builder and at the
same time study architectural plans and design as they should be studied. The
fact that "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing" could hardly be more clearly
exemplified than with he, who with a smattering of architectural knowledge,
self-styles himself "Architect and Builder."
He may be able to make a poor copy of some good design heretofore built,
but no copy is as good as an original in the first place, and aside from this, while
the copyest is copying, the original man is surging on ahead on something new
and better. Did you ever realise this?
THE CHEAP BUILDER.
The cheap builder is usually antagonistic to the architect. The good builder
Is generally his friend, for when he figures on a job he knows that his figures
will be made on the same basis for material, construction and workmanship as
that of his competitors. My professional services cost you nothing when it Is
considered they come out of and are paid for by the waste which would pre-
sumptively result in building without well considered plans.
Be as specific when you build as you would in a written contract, for a
"building muddle" is deplorable. The plans, specification and details of construc-
tion are necessarily a part of your contract.
A building difficulty is perhaps the worst and longest remembered difficulty
that a person ever gets into. A builder when he is inclined to be dishonest can
cause you more worry and anxiety than most any other entanglement, and his
defective work is. always before you.
A reliable and well-to-do builder will always recommend that you go to an
architect and formulate your ideas in a practical way, and to then have regular
working plans made, including legally worded specifications, and above all, de-.
tails of construction, giving box-frames, porches, cornices, etc.
The cheap builder will endeavor to underbid his more able and conservative
competitor and sometimes by his so-called knowledge of architectural design
and plan arrangement, erect a "night-mare" appearing structure, when for a
nominal architect's fee the building could have had at least a semblance of ar-
chitectural beauty and design.
THE TRULY APPRECIATIVE.
The class of clients we desire are the "truly appreciative." when I spend
my best efforts in producing something modern at a reasonable fee. I do not
HERBERT C. CHIVLRS, ARCHITECT. ST. LOI/IS.

like to have my practical details of construction disregarded by some "wood- 1
butcher" who will argue that he can do something "just as good" and perhaps
rain the ultimate effect B ef ore any changes or suggestions are followed the j
architect should always be consulted. Changes should not occur after contract is '
signed, and this is where the value of preliminary plans come in. They can be
thoroughly studied before the final plans are made and are sufficiently reliable
from which to secure reasonably certain estimates.
FREE IDEAS ARE CHEAP IDEAS.
It is unreasonable to expect sketches of an architect of his ideas until an or-
der ia placed. My ideas are what I charge for and if I offered these free, they
would be of little value, I believe.
OUR DRAWINGS.
Our drawings consist of basement, attic and roof and two floor plans, with
dimensions figured and marked, four elevations each drawn to a quarter inch
scale, and large scale and full size details for every thing inside and out, requir-
ing detail. Also type- written specifications and contract blanks. You can order
your plans with confidence that you will get everything necessary for the erec-
tion of your building.
You can judge the cost of house for a given locality by other houses already
built, and the number of rooms they contain. Of course a nearly square house
is more economical to build and by improved methods of construction It is safe
to figure 10 to 20 per cent less for building from our plans.
SUPERINTENDENCE.
My plans are so drawn that any competent builder can follow them. I am
very particular about the construction and ornamental details, which save the
builder so much time in figuring and laying out his work, and these details are
sent In blue print form.
ESTIMATES.
We do not guarantee estimates. This would be absolutely an injustice to our
clients, reputable builders and fellow architects. We do not sell plans on the
pretence of "guaranteed estimates," but we give herewith a schedule of prices
upon which our estimates are based, which of course will vary in different sec-
tions of the country. We also give the probable minimum and maximum cost of
each building. We do not send out samples of our work on approval, at least un-
til reasonable assurance of an order is given.
SCHEDULE OF PRICES.
Excavating, per cubic yard ? 10 to $ 12
Rubble stone work, per perch 1 35 to 2 00
Brick laid in wall, per 1,000 7 00 to 8 00
Lathing and plastering, per yard 20 to 22
Dimension lumber, per 1,000 10 00 to 14 00
Flooring 14 00 to 18 00
Sheathing boards 9 00 to 12 00
Shingles 1 75 to 2 75
Siding ... 18 00 to 22 00
Finish lumber 20 00 to 30 00
Tin work, per square 6 00 to 8 00
Carpenters, per day 1 75 to 2 75
Masons, per day 2 00 to 3 00
Common labor, per day 1 00 to 1 50
CONSULTATION AT A DISTANCE.
Think of what you can save by consulting a party at a distance who is ab-
solutely disinterested in the contract or in the party that receives the contract,
one who is above all petty favoritism to certain builders and who, if any one can,
will plan and design a building which will be new and original and not a copy
after Mr. Smith's building on Jones street, or Mr. Jones' building on Smith
street This is where local talent generally fails to produce artistic results. The
field is too limited. They have nothing for fresh inspiration.
MY CLIENTAGE.
My clientage has been built up at great expense. I have put in years in my
I
HERBERT C. CHIVLRS, ARCHITECT, ST. LOUIS,

endeavor to produce artistic and practical results. I give all work personal at-
tention and have no cheap help in my office.
We do work at small profit and as it is done well our clients always get good
results. I contend that it is all right to do work reasonably cheap if it is done
well.
THE EXTENT OF OUR BUSINESS.
We can take only a certain amount of business, turning out plans is not a
mechanical operation, as some would presume. It requires good efficient draught-
men and personal attention and my time being entirely devoted to the best inter-
ests of my clients I cannot reasonably be expected to give personal attention to
sending out "free sketches." I believe it a great injustice to expect an archi-
tect, or any other professional man to waste his time in this manner and to send
out samples of his work upon approval. A lawyer, physician or any other pro-
fessional man would not consent to it .
THE FREE SKETCH IDEA.
The profession of architecture has been cheapened somewhat by the practice
some architects have made of sending out free sketches. When an architect has
come to this in order to secure work, it is reasonably certain that he will take
the easiest way to please you, inasmuch as he will not make any effort to im-
prove upon your ideas. When you go to an architect, a lawyer, or a doctor, you
do not always care for him to coincide exactly with your ideas. You want ad-
vanced ideas, suggestions and conscientious advise. Now with the "free-sketch
architect," he is after an early adoption of plan, usually an anti-dated stock plan
at .that, or a poor original made by cheap help. We would rather sell special
plans as we like to improve on every job turned out and even on our past work.
It stands to reason that no reputable architect can improve his work when he
copies one job after another. It stands to reason that the "free-sketch architect"
will not care to give other advice when you have once selected one of his (once
in-a-hundred chance) plans, for fear that he will loose your order.
AS A SPECIALIST.
I can offer suggestions which come only from extended study and long ex-
perience. The average client is not fully aware of the value of plans prepared
by an architectural expert, compared with those made by a builder, or even by
an architect of ordinary ability and limited clientage. In most professions the
charges are exorbitantly high in proportion to the extent of practice, but with
us mnch lower than the universal schedule of fees, on medium-price residence
and church work, except in St. Louis, where we charge the customary fees of
3% per cent for plans, specifications and details.
SPECIAL PLANS.
Realizing that one building, well done, leads to more, we will agree to make
complete special plans for the special price of 2 per cent on the actual cost of
building or for a fee of not less than $35, including full details and legally
worded specifications and give them personal attention. We ask for nothing in
advance from parties who are absolutely responsible and are rated. Parties not
well recommended must advance at least one-third of fee with order. We ex-
pect to fully satisfy clients on every point in the preliminary plans. This is
where the value of preliminary plans comes in.
PUBLISHED PLANS.
We cannot afford to publish plans of our special work for the reason that
certain advanced ideas would be universally made use of. Some builders dis-
courage the use of an architect's plan, on the pretense- that estimates are gen-
erally low. Some architects put their estimates high, in order to find favor with
the builders, who will quite naturally recommend their plans. The builder
should have a fair profit
ORIGINAL DESIGNS.
When you build, it is supposed that you want something original and differ-
ent to the common-place buildings you see every day. My study is not confined
to one locality. I do work in every State in the Union and many foreign coun-
tries and a great deal of It, therefore my ideas are not limited. Taking it on the
HERBERT C. CHIVER8, ARCHITECT, ST. LOUIS.
0 0 ARTISTIC H O M E, S 0 0
principle that "practice makes perfect" this alone should be an incentive for you
to avail yourself of my services.
UNPREJUDICED ADVICE.
In preparing to build, the main object is to have" a suitable arrangement of
floor plan and this is where you will need the assistance of some one who is
totally unprejudiced, regardless of any selfish interests which he may have in
finally figuring on the contract to erect the house.
Our interests lie altogether in having you well pleased and in putting up a
house which will be a comfort to you as well as a credit to ue. We could not
afford to give you anything but the most conscientious advice on all points. If
given your work we shall feel fully responsible for its ultimate success as to
practicability and design.
USELESS ORNAMENTATION.
We do not litter up the exteriors of our buildings by useless ornamentation.
Most of our cuts are pure simple outline sketches, which can be elaborated on,
more or less, as desired. When we have a client who fancies cheap light grille-
work ornamentation we supply it, but not by preference. We pay more for
draughtsman's time who can base the beauty of a design on simple and striking
features rather than on so-called "ginger-bread" ornamentation.
SUGGESTIONS TO YOUR NEIGHBORS.
If communities could, as a whole, readily understand and appreciate the art
in architecture each house designed as it should be would enhance the value of
adjoining property. My clients often make special efforts to secure for me the
planning of houses for their adjoining neighbors, so that the surrounding houses
may be in true harmony.
So many architects have not the least conception of how a building will ap-
pear in perspective, when erected, or its relation with other buildings, landscape,
etc. I make a close study of these conditions.
THE USE OF PLANS.
Plans are to be used but once, and parties purchasing plans of this office are
priviledged to build only one building from them. This is a universal custom
among architects, and for plans used a second time we are entitled to 3% per
cent on the total cost of each building erected from them.
Some are of the opinion that these plans may be used provided changes are
made, but where it can be shown that a prospective client purchased books con-
taining certain ideas embodied in such plans as may be built from, without
payment to the originator it is sufficient evidence on which to prosecute. This
notice is simply to protect those who might endeavor to use "ignorance of the
law" as an excuse for duplicating plans.
It is admitted, even by many architects, that the facilities of this office to
produce practical plans and artistic designs is superior to that of any other in
the United States.
If any of our stock plans should exceed estimate I will exchange them with-
in 10 days after shipping for any other plans of less cost which I may have in
stock, if leturned in good shape, for $2 additional.
WHEN ADVICE IS OF VALUE.
When one -contemplates building, it is in the early stages of the enterprise
that the architect should be selected. The advice and experience of a trust-
worthy architect should be scured by all means. Do not expect an architect to
put his best ideas on paper *f or you,- unless you have a positive understanding
with him that he is to do the work. Parties who struggle along themselves with
all the preliminary work and later on, employ the architect do not secure full
services. The most valuable portion of a plan, and often its most vital points
are rendered during its embryotic period.
STATE LEGISLATION AGAINST "BUILDER - ARCHITECTS."
The State of Illinois has recently passed" a law compelling architects to un-
dergo a rigid examination before they can practice. They define what an achi-
tect is, and self-styled architects, without a license are subject to prosecution
and a fine of $500 for each and every offense. When it is necessary to pass
BLKBERT C. CHIVERS, ARCHITECT. ST. LOUIS.

State legislation on a matter of this kind, it is time that more care be taken in
the selection of an architect. This office carries an Illinois license
AFTER PLANS ARE MADE.
After order is placed and plans are made and during construction you may
ask as many questions as you choose, and so long as they are put m rotation
on separate sheet (with space to write answer) they will be promptly answered,
and if you will send photos of house during its construction, we can tell you at
a glance if the general design and proportions are being carried out properly.
ORDER BLANK.
Please fill out the enclosed order and question blank in back of book as
near as you can, and I will immediately proceed with the preliminary plans.
These plans may probably require changing several times, in order to suit you
exactly, and 1 shall expect prompt replies, so that I can give the matter atten-
tion while it is fresh in mind. You possibly have a view of a house which
comes near suiting you, or a partly executed plan, which you can send rough
tracing of.
THE NECESSITY OF PLANS.
It is very necessary that you have complete working drawings, and above
all, legally worded specifications. It excites competition among the builders,
and then since you know that all builders are figuring on the same basis, you
can very readily see how the price of plans and specifications may be saved
many times over.
NEW IDEAS.
This is not all there is to be considered. You want a house with all modern
improvements. There are constantly coming out new methods of construction,
new building materials, new plumbing and other fixtures, and as a leader in my
profession these new features are brought to my early attention.
CHANGES IN STOCK PLANS.
I will make preliminary plans to your ideas for $5, and it is quite possible
that I will find some stock plan in my books which will suit you exactly, for
which I would charge you $5 to $25, or I can suggest changes in stock plan
which I will make for $2.75 additional, provided the outside of the building is
not changed. I can usually alter elevations at $2.50 each , making complete
all around for $12.75 over and above the cost of stock-plans.
COMMON-PLACE TALENT.
A greater portion of my work comes from clients who roughly arrive at
the arrangement of plan wanted themselves or through "free sketch architects"
and then send their work to me to be put into practical shape. There is so
much common-place talent now-a-days that can be had for the asking that it
pays one to express a little individuality in the plan of a building by going to an
architect, who will improve on your ideas and who does not waste his time do-
ing work for nothing and paying himself back when he gets an order by shirk-
ing his work.
IN SENDING MONEY.
The safest manner in which to remit is by P. O. order, for in this case if the
order is lost, they will furnish a duplicate. (See P. O. money order application
blank in back of book.)
You can also remit by draft through any bank or by express company.
We will receive individual checks from responsible parties where 15 cents
exchange is allowed.
MY RESPONSIBILITY.
I have been engaged in the practice of architecture in the city of St. Louis
for many years. My professional advertising announcements appear only in
such publications as guarantee their subscribers against irresponsible advertis-
ers. I refer you to the Lincoln Trust Co. and Mercantile Trust Co. and German
Savings Institute and almost any resident of this city.
My professional responsibility and preparedness has been my success and
is evidenced by the fact that clients who build year after year invariably come
back to me for plans.
HERBERT C. CHIVLR5, ARCHITECT, ST. LOUIS,
0 * -ARTISTIC HOMES
We are absolutely responsible and do all that we advertise and still en-
deavor to do more, and therefore cannot afford to answer letters or devote time
with irresponsible or idle inquirers. We have hundreds of letters of approval
from parties whom we have satisfied, a few of which we give in the back pages
of this book, under the heading of "Here is the Evidence," and many others
scattered through the book. See page 833 .
We are not too important to take small work nor too small to take large
work, but we have no time to waste in soliciting business by cheap "catch-
penny" or "free-plan, schemes." Our time belongs to regular clients who are
content in placing orders direct, and for which we are satisfied with a small
profit, and will accept a minimum fee of $5 for preliminary plans. This fee is
allowed as a credit on the cost of complete plans, if ordered within six months.
EMPLOY AN ARCHITECTURAL EXPERT.
By securing the services of this office, the best style of design, proportions
and harmony of detailed construction will have been procured. Material and
construction will be carefully shown and specified, and you are proteo ted on
contracts. Plumbing, sanitation and heating is carefully provided for. Your
ideas will be elaborated on, without extra expense in actual construction, and
with our practical experience the completed house will be satisfactorily built—
"a thing of beauty and a joy forever." Where you do not secure competent ad-
vice, expensive changes will undoubtedly afterwards result.
If you do not find a suitable plan, send a rough sketch of your own ideas,
(see sketching blank in back of book,) aud for $5 we will prepare a study of your
house if to cost less than $2,000, or $7 if to cost less than $3,500, and give you a
picture of the exterior.
PROMPT ANSWERS.
To insure prompt answers to questions always give design number, page
number and name of book and put questions on a separate sheet containing your
full address, date, etc., and leaving ample space below each question to plainly
write answers. Always use our return envelopes when sent.
I am probably not as solicitious as my competitor g but I want your work
nevertheless. The fact that you may not hear from me again after getting this
book will evidence no lack of attention. I am very prompt in my correspondence
and I can serve you probably more satisfactorily than a local architect, as my
statements will be put down in writing and will be more convincing with your-
self and builder than verbal advice.
Parties who answer our advertisements can write us freely without the annoy-
ance of having their names handed around as patrons of ours, or sold to building
material concarns for circulation. You will not be pestered with circulars from
this source, as we give out no information whatever, and our employees are spec-
ially cautioned to not talk office matters, under penalty of their situations..

HOW TO ORDER PLANS.
When the full price of plans is sent with order, express charges will be pre-
paid at this end. Otherwise, plans will be sent C. O. D. with express and return
charges payable by purchaser.
Individual checks cannot be received, unless 15 cents exchange is allowed.
Send Bank draft, registered letter, express or P. O. money order, made payable
• to Herbert C. Chivers. See order blanks, sketch blanks and money order applica-
tion blanks in back of book.
Parties not rated or well reccomended must send one-third of the
amount with order.
WHY OUR BUILDINGS LOOK WELL WHEN BUILT.
1st— All framing is clearly shown; no time is lost in figuring out plans.
2nd— We take advantage of all modern methods of construction.
3rd— Our work is detailed so as to be attractive and yet inexpensive.
4th— Plans are up-to-date in design and yet inexpensive in construction.
5th— Every dimension is given, including detail drawings of construction.
6th— Plans are prepared by skillful designers and can be depended upon.
HERBERT G. CHIVERS, ARCHITECT. ST. LOUIS.

7th— Plans are accurately figured and specified and save many discussions.
8th— Plans are so easily understood that builders do not waste time.
9th— Our buildings look well when completed and outlast the ordinary built
10th— We prefer simple classic outlines to common cheap ornamentation.
11th— Plans are figured economically in the cutting of joists and otherwise.
12th— The buildings look neat for the reason that we study minute details.
13th— Builders estimating on these plans know that they are figuring on the
same basis as their competitors. This is important to the builder as well as
owner.
A WORD OF CAUTION.
Readers of this catalogue of architectural designs are respectfully warned
and requested not to build from designs or use portions of plans shown therein.
Any duplicity of this kind when found out and reported by our correspondents
or travelling representatives will be charged for according to the legal fees of
Sy2 per cent on the cost of said improvements.
Builders sometimes try to impress upon prospective clients that they can
work up something a little different and yet evade the architect's rights at law.
No copy is as good as the original, in the first place, and besides subjecting their
customers to a cost for plans which is many times higher than what we might
originally charge if ordered direct, they only make a common-place design. Have
you ever noticed that "sameness" in houses built in certain localities? Why is it?
Then again have you not seen a house which looked like a gentleman among a
lot of beggars? It is all in the kind of plan you have.
QUESTIONS PROMPTLY ANSWERED.
Parties who contemplate ordering plans are at liberty to ask as many ques-
tion as they choose. Write questions out plainly, leaving space for an answer
below each one. Also refer to plans by design and page number, always giving
name of house. It is desirable that you send outline of lot, points of compass,
etc, if you contemplate ordering special plans. To see how designs appear re-
versed hold to a mirror.
See index for revised plans. Should any stock plan exceed estimate, I will ex-
change them for any other plan of less cost which we may have in stock if re-
turned within ten days from date of shipment and in good condition.
Always write questions on separate sheet, with name and address.
SKETCH PROPOSITION.
For the nominal cost of $5 orso,forprelimary plans, it would pay you any-
way to put "two heads" to work on this important building project of yours,
even if you did not care to finally build from my plans. My ideas alone are
worth this to you.
I assure you, however, you will require no other assistance for we exercise
the greatest care in the preperation of our work and have excellent facilities,
and a large staff of draughtsmen, each of whom are experts in their certain line.
Your local architect's ideas may be only 70 to 80-percent right, maybe
only 60-percent, but even if 90-percent right, which is a high average, you
would be ahead by ordering plans of this office at 2-percent, which we" guar-
antee to be 100-percent perfect.
The preliminary plans consist of the floor plans, giving sizes of rooms,
etc., to }i or *£ inch scales as we deem best, and a front view of hoBse, and
when the floor arrangement and front view is to your satisfaction we expect a
payment of $10 or $15 on account if you wish us to proceed* further with the
work.
C. O. D. ORDERS.
Plans and specifications, unlike merchandise, convey ideas, and these are
what are charged for and while in general the prospective client's sincerety is not
**m the least doubted, it is hardly reasonable to expect plans to be sent subject

to your notions, after they arrive. We therefore endeavor to work on the
Christian law of exchange: That is, "Give as much as you can" and we show as
much as we consistently can for the money in the book, and our policy is to
endeavor to give as much or more than is expected for the money, and we,
therefore, cannot take any speculative chances on your fancies.
The excellent facilities of this office makes it possible to give you much
more and better work for your money than procurable elsewhere.
PURCHASING MATERIAL.
We often have requests to purchase building materials, mantels, heating
devices, etc., and for the convenience of our clients we will do this where
paid by our clients, at the rate of 5-percent on cost of purchases, giving the
benefit of our judgement of values, etc., but in no instance can we accept a
commission except from our clients. We receive letters daily with extracts
such as follow:
"We would be pleased to pay you a commission of IO PER cent for
ANY MATERIAL MENTIONED IN YOUR SPECIFICATIONS OR ORDERS SENT OUR WAY,
AS WE HAVE FOUND SUCH ARRANGEMENTS VERY MUTUALLY SATISFACTORY WITH
OTHERS IN YOUR LINE."
Such letters receive the following curt reply:
"I ACCEPT NO COMMISSIONS EXCEPT FROM MY CLIENTS, AND SPECIFY WHAT I
THINK BEST, AND DO NOT THANK YOU FOR THE SUGGESTION, WHICH, IN MY OPIN-
ION, IS PLAIN BRIBERY, AND I OFFER $IOO TO ANY ONE WHO CAN SHOW THAT I
HAVE, AT ANY TIME, EVER ACCEPTED A CENT IN THIS WAY."
I am quite emphatic on this point as it is becoming a common practice.
An architect can not conscientiously take a fee from both sides, any more
than a reputable lawyer, and while it might be quite renumerative for a while it
would in my opinion be his undoing in time. Furthermore, we do not sell
lists of names to such concerns, bothering our clients with circulars.
PROSPECTIVE CLIENTS.
Prospective clients at a distance should be very emphatic if they mean
business. I get so many idle inquiries, to which I can pay no attention
and it will pay you to be frank in your dealings with this office, as I take great
interest in appreciative clients, who have ambition enough to have my plans
carried out right when they get them, as it means satisfaction all around, and
leads to other work.
THE NECESSITY OF PLANS.
An architect's plans and specifications saves money and avoids delay and
mistakes, especially, such plans as we turn out, all accurately drawn and carefully
figured. They will save many times their cost, besides you have the satisfac-
tion of having embodied style and convience in your building. It is a mistake
to suppose that you can build intelligently without such service. We put your
own ideas in condensed and practical form. We facilitate the taking of
estimates from contractors, as they can then bid accurately. Complete plans
save you much worry, and you are not then obliged to take everybody's advice.
The first essential is an artistic exterior, of clean-cut outline, free from
cheap ornamentation or extremes of any kind. In plan, the rooms should be
well arranged, taking into consideration, light, ventilation and location of furni-
ture, etc.
ARCHITECTURAL STYLE.
It is regretable to see the lack of appreciation that many have for clean-

cut, sensible architectural design. Many go to the expense to have carefully-
drawn plans made, and then show an utter disregard as to whether it
is carried out in detail according to the architects instructions, and if the
contractor is at all inclined to shirk his work, he can often induce a substitu-
tion of inferior design and cheaper material, under some slight pretext or
other.
To an architect of keen appreciation of the beautiful, these things seem
as if the doings of a primitive man, whose main ambition of proper housing
was limited to simply four walls and roof for protection, without any regard
of symmetry of outline or design.
In order to get the best results, select a good honest conscientious and
intelligent builder. If he is one who believes an architect's plans as unneces-
sary, he is a ''Primitive" and should not be entrusted with your work, for the
progressive man does not build simply for protection from the elements, but
for beauty as well as convenience, and it stands to reason that you should
procure expert advice.
It is all well enough to figure with local men as to about how large a
building can be built for a given sum, but having attained this, you then want
the best talent attainable.
DO US A FAVOR
By showing this catalogue to your neighbors contemplating building and
when they order of us, we will send you a suitable and appropriate
remembrance of your friendly efforts in our behalf.
There is no comparison between the excellent work turned out at this
office and the work of the carpenter-architect, or the "sketch-em and catch-em"
architect, who offers free sketches, or publishing and plaining-mill companies.
Architecture is a distinct profession, and is above all of this. It is my distinct
occupation to prepare plans, in the best possible manner, and at the least pos-
sible cost, and in doing a larger business than any four concerns combined in
the country, it is quite reasonable to presume that "practice makes perfect,"
or nearly so.
In filling book or plan erders, it is my earnest desire that all should feel
that they are getting their money's worth, although I endeavor to give more.
But should you not feel fully satisfied, let me hear from you at once. This is
important to me. It will be appreciated, for in doing business by mail, I am
always open to fair criticism. My "success does not depend on one-time
orders, I want the work of your friends and neighbors.
In dealing with this office, distance is no barrier to conscientious deal-
ings. I can not afford to advise you unrelibaly. My office is just as close to
you as your nearest mail-box.

SUMMER COTTAGES.
As a number of our cheaper cottages are planned suitable for summer cot-
tages, we have them classified as shown on the succeeding thirty-two pages.
These houses are figured for regular construction, except where described as
summer construction, and basements are included where cellar stairs are shown.
We have a special cheap method of summer-house construction, using beaded
partition lumber to inside partitions, running perpindicular around the entire
room, and having the room free from the customary exposed posts to outer
walls. This method will save 15 to 20 per-cent in cost, and we can prepare
special plans of any cheap house for $25. See index for other summer cottages.

MODERATE COST HOUSES.
IrLANS which refer back to this page have 1 8-inch stone or
13-inch brick foundation walls, as desired, with cellar under
the main portion of house where cellar stairs are shown and
flue for furnace where practical, with general good finish
throughout. Plumbing is included where shown. Story
heights average i o feet.
All rooms are plastered and finished with yellow pine, or
native wood, in natural finish. All mouldings are detailed in
stock patterns, and details of porches, cornices, etc., are very
simple in construction. It is important to have the entire
construction of a building clearly shown by large scale or full-
size drawings. It assists the workmen on the building, for
they do not then have to ponder over problems of construc-
tion. The plans are all neatly and accurately drawn, and
above all, carefully figured, giving dimensions of glass, location
and size of doors, windows, etc., and all information neces-
sary for the successful guidance of the builder.
It costs no more to put style into a house than it does to
have it commonplace and as long as discretion is used in thb
economical and practical selection of mouldings, ornaments,
etc., there is no danger of running-up the cost of construction.
Carefully-drawn plans, details and specifications should be
prepared for structures of all kinds. Where you have com-
plete plans, you then know that all contractors are figuring on
the same basis, and when you do get a reasonably low bid
you are assured it is not for inferior work. The difference in
estimates here given are supposed to cover the total costs in
different localities, giving the lowest and highest probable
costs, and we therefore give no absolute guarantees as to the
actual cost, for prices are regulated more or less by the amount
of competition there is among builders. All estimates are
based on the schedule of prices in front pages. If you have
plans you can always get reasonably fair bids. At the prices
given for stock-plans, no changes or modifications are includ-
ed, but we will furnish plans reversed, if desired, or will
change any floor plan for $2.75 extra and any elevation or
exterior view for $2.50, or will make special plans for 2 per-
cent, on cost of building, or $25.00 for houses of less than
$1,250 in cost.

After having plans furnished by you for my house I feel it due you and your
work to make some statement relative to same. I found plans and specifica-

It isn't worth while, though, for me to state that I am well pleased with your
work, for you will find enclosed check and order for a second plan which will
demonstrate the fact. REV. F. H. QUINN, Fayette, Mo.

A rough stone tower, with an ornamental chimney giving it prominence, blends harmoniously with the
broad velvety stained shingle gables surrounding it, and is contrasted strongly by the moss-green roof which
lends a back ground.
In arrangement of plan the large sitting-room is the general-room of the house. The main stairs are so
arranged as to overcome the necessity of a rear stairs, as they can be separated from the reception-room by
means of a sliding-door. Owing to two of the second-story rooms overhanging porch, there is considerable
room nn the second floor for a house of this size. The general dimensions are 48x32. The extreme width
over all is 48, and the cost $3200 to $3580.

A simple stone and shingle effect. The stone work being laid random-ashler form, and neatly pointed
in black cement, and extends only around the front porch and parlor, thereby obtaining a substantial and
artistic effect at considerable economy. The shingles of gables are the natural color ana those of the roof a
dark moss-green. The first story weatherboards are painted a dark Tuscan red and the trimmings a pure
white, giving a splendid contrast in connection with the stone.
In arrangement of plan the reception hall is the attractive feature, divided as it is from the lower plat-
form of the stairs by a wide elliptical arch. The arrangement of fire-place in parlor and dining-room gives an
opportunity of building an extra wide and deep fire-place in hall, for log fires. The combination cellar
entrance and side entrance is quite a convenience. The general dimensions of house are 32 x 53, and tho
extreme width over all is 44. The building complete according to inside finish, including mantles, would cost
$2980 to 83560.

Chimneys built protruding in this manner, of rough stone, are very effective, especially when a few vines
are gracefully trained over the surface. The hood-like dormer jutting out as it does from the stone chimney
is quite a striking feature. The front balcony is accessible from both chambers The heavy Ionic columns
are befittingly placed, supporting as they do, a portion of the main roof and gable above.
In arrangement of plan, the reception hall is uniquely arranged, with the wide stone fire-place, the art
window above, the graceful winding stairs and the commodious bench stairs. The cellar stairs, which go
down under the main stairs has a platform located one step above grade, where there is a sash door. Tno
general dimensions are 31.6 x 37, and the extreme width over all 39. The estimated cost is $2298 to $2990.

^llAXAHACHIE COTTAGE— Design 84M; In the accom-
paning designs, the plan of a $500 three-room one-story
cottage is arranged in such a manner that several rooms may
be added on in front without making any change in the origi-
nal building. It consist of a basement under the entire build-
ing, with an outside cellar entrance. The first floor consists of
a general living-room, kitchen and bed room. The cost seems
considerble for an ordinary three-room house, but as good cellar
and foundation is something which cannot be put into advan-
tage afterwards, it is a good thing to start on "a solid founda-
tion" when building, no matter how small or insignificant the
house may seem. Plans, $35. See page 65.

WORLD'S FAIR SKY-SCRAPER PROPOSITION.
From tbeSt. Louis Globe-Democrat, Oct. 13th, 1901.
SINCE the World's Fair has been assured num-
erous, temporary sky-scraping ideas have been
suggested but one of the most interesting yet ven-
tured, is by Architect Herbert C. Chivers, built on
the Eiffel-tower plan of construction, as a wind-
brace, with ordinary steel construction to take care
of the floors and walls, and to add general rigidity
to the whole. In other words, it is the storm-tested
Eiffel tower incased as a business building, keeping
the first twelve stories within the height limit and
utilizing the tower for offices or guests' chambers to a
hotel portion as in plan (8) with the hotel offices
below, connected by elevators and stairs, with roof
garden and pagodas as shown.
The idea would be to take a whole square, such
as bounded by Olive, Pine, Sixth and Seventh streets,
which is practically 235x275 feet in size, and plan
the ground floor with large department stores on
Olive and Pine streets with magnificent entrances,
utilizing the present alley space, and having short-
cut diagonal 20-foot arcades from corner to corner,
as in plan (1), thereby gaining 1280 feet of actual
store frontage (in addition to the present 980 feet
around block), with large electric lights and venti-
lating fans, making it cool in summer and a protec-
tion from the weather in winter, and something
which the downtown district needs.
The central, or dark portion above arcade, would
be for a very large high-class theater, with promenades
on all sides, double carriage drives at rear and box
seats encircling lower floor marked "B," as in plan
(3), with a delivery wagon driveway leading to
basement for department and other stores, as shown
on plans (1) and (2), and the fifth to the eleventh
floors to be used entirely for the department stores,
as in plan (4), with twelfth floor for parlors, with the
two - story dining - room in center with high
windows to same, taking in thirteenth story as in
plan (6).
The Eiffel tower windbrace is so interlaced into
the construction of building as to not obstruct in any
way, and the necessary location of the stems to this
windbrace is what really first suggested the diagonal
arcades and corridors above, as shown on plans (1
and 8), the walls of which it will be seen cover up
the necessary slanting steel construction.
The encased central elevator service is from up-
per floors of the department stores to the floors on
thirty-fifth to fiftieth stories, which can be used for
light manufacturing, such as upholstering, tailoring,
dressmaking, curtain department, etc.
The view as given would represent the east side,
with 235 feet frontage, with porch covering hotel
and theatre entrance, with cafe below, showing
plainly from street, and the raised balcony would be
about 5 feet above street for hotel.
Some idea of the immensity of the structure can
be had when it is considered that the building proper
is a full city square in size, and to the top of main
cornice is equal to our highest building with the
lower tower portion 136 feet square, the next off-set
in tower 68 feet wide, the top section of tower 48
feet wide, and to center of 12-foot electric globe
1000 feet high, and to top of flagpole 1050 feet.
The cost of such a building would be somewhere
near three million five hundred thousand dollars, re-
quiring about two years to complete, and from a point
of investment would yield an enormous income.

The porte-cochere feature of this front porch lends considerably to the size and proportion of the
house. The semi-circular shingled sides to the dormers are made available on the inside of the
building as closets, and the shelf-like window sills serve to set plants or flower-boxes on out in
front. The recessed window to side gable, and the deep set windows to dormers, give an appearance
of substantiability.
In plan, the much-talked-of reception hall Is very much in evidence, with the heavy beamed
arch supported by heavy columns, the nook under stairs, and the bay and nook at second landing.
The general dimensions of building are 47 x 46. The width over all is 65 feet, and the estimated
cost $3400 to $3690.

H6 65.
A plan which is nearly square is generally the most economical to build, but it is difficult to secure an
artistic exterior, and overcome the box-like effect The rustic stone porch, simple as it is, and the general
grouping of the dormer windows lends to the attractiveness of this building. The upper attic dormer with
stone chimney and the protruding semi-circular balcony at the side, is strikingly impressive. The first story
walls are of stone.
The plan is arranged with a central hall, giving a wide and imposing frontage. The main chamber on
the second floor has semi-circular ends, being a good shape for decorative ceiling. In some localities a
chamber on the first floor is desirable, and in this case the sitting-room could be used for this purpose, and if
the tear stairs were dispensed with, a bath room could be arranged in connection. The general dimensions of
building are 43 x 39 and the approximate cost $2947 to §3498.

For a country home especially the straight, stiff, up-and down house, 'with cornice on one level
around building, is hardly in keeping and harmony with nature. Notice the elegant simplicity of the
dormer windows in the accompanying design, connected as they are by a railing of Grecian pattern,
also the unpretentious but well- proportioned oriol window, nestled beneath the wide overhanging
eaves.
The hospitable appearance of house is carried out on the inside, as you enter, with a wide com-
modious hall, running from front to rear, and the well-proportioned rooms adjoining. General di-
mensions are 68 x 28, and the estimated cost is $3200 to $3690.

In the accompanying design the front porch is of rough stone, forming ballustrade and posts.
This is somewhat relieved as one nears the porch steps by handsome cut- stone columns, set on either
side. The two bay windows on porch roof build up gracefully in connection with the colonial gable
above.
In arrangement of plan the entrance is divided from the reception hall by an ornamental arch,
and back of this a large fire-place. The general width of building is 33 feet and the depth 61 feet,
the width over all being 57 feet. The estimated cost is $4242 to $4650.

When I wrote you for the cottage designs, possibly you mistook me for
some one expecting to build. I am a builder, not one of those arch-i-tect
builders either, that you speak of, but just a plain every-day builder. I do
lots of building through the country where I have to draw plans, but not by
choice, by any means. I have tried to explain to my patrons the importance
of an experienced architect many times, but many of them cannot see the
difference between an architect and builder.
In this country a builder is generally expected to make plans and de-
tails and look after the work in general, and lots of patrons do not seem to
think that it is much of a job and do not want to pay much for it. If every
builder was like myself, they would put more stress on the importance of an
architect and take lots of work off their own hands which is not in their
line and to which they are not fitted. I have studied over your designs and
must say that they are a? good cottage plans as I ever saw.— Harry Kramer.

REMODEL WORK.
IfY/ANY an old house would be remodeled if it could succes-
fully be done without sacraficing a greater portion of the
present structure, and even then, as many say, "it's an old
house after all."
But there are ways of overcoming these difficulties, and a
very successful instance is in the residence of Mr. J. N. Tool,
of Bloomfield, Mo., who several years ago erected a carpenter-
planned structure, as given in cut No. i, and tiring of it
wished it completeiy remodeled. This would have meant
practically a new house. At least it would have cost nearly
as much. It was then decided to allow the present structure
to remain, cut the front poarch off, put it in the rear,
and erect an entirely new two-story structure, and as in-
dicated in black lines on the plan, thereby giving the house
an entirely new and up-to-date appearance, and not disturb-
ing the old house in the least, as shown in cut No. 2. As the
plan is only one room deep, the cost was less than half of
what might otherwise have been expended, being $1,200.
The views show the "before-taking" amateur-planned house
and the "after-taking" effects of a competent architect's de-
sign, with full size details of construction furnished, showing
all moldings, ornaments, etc.
We can prepare remodeling plans for 4 per cent on cost of
improvements, with no fee less than $50.

Dear Sir:-
The plans purchased of you gave general satisfaction, i
found, as you stated, that correctly drawn plans and legally worded
specifications are necessarily a part of the builder's contract and
one would be unwise to enter into the intricities of a building
operation without expert architectural advise and definately formed
plans beforehand.
Very respectfully,

Yours respectfully,
Yours at hand and much pleased to hear from you. My house is not com-
pleted. The carpenters will finish sometime this week. The contractor was
very slow in getting everything ready, but will say your plans were carried out
to the letter, and it is pronounced by everyone a showy house. I thought at
first you were exhorbitant in your charges, but now would pay you twice that
sum than build without your plans, and to say that I am pleased, is putting it
mildly, and as soon as it is completed will send you a photo of it, and hope that
I may be able to send you more work.

Dear Sir:-
Your request in reference to my house, for which you
made plans, has been received, end I desire to thank you most
sincerely for the benefit that your special plans and advise
have been to me. I cannot say to much in commendation of your
services.
The contractor found not the slightest fault with plans,
and he commented you very highly, especially on details of
construction. I can clearly see now, where you have saved me the
actual cost of plans, many times over, by the ingenuity with which
you economize on space and materials.
I did not have the least idea that 1 could do business
so promptly and satisfactory with a distant architect, and you
are at liberty to refer any of your prospective clients to me, as
I shall always feel that you have been of greajt service to me
professionally. I am told that I have the handsomest house of
jits size in the city.
Thanking you again, 1, remain.

I know the value of an architect's plans, they save time and expense, be-
sides a well-built, stylish building. Always helps a contractor with his cus-
tomers, and is about all he has to refer back too. It is hard to talk architect
to some people, as they do not understand the great importance of accurately
drawn plans.— L. W. HOLDER, Contractor and Builder, Havana, N. D.

most happy to report that not only have they given satisfaction, but
the design and practical arrangement of my house has been generally

to show the house to a great number , of people, since it has been
offered for sale due to the fact that I am obliged to leave the city.

Dear Sin-
Rep lying to your favor of the T2th Inst., asking how I ^m
satisfied "with plans, etc., will state, that I could not be induced
to build without special plans prepared by you. Tour advise alone
during the preparation of the preliminary plans has been invaluable
to me; and since the erection of my residence, I now am assured that
you have directed me in a most thorough manner, in all matters pertain-
ing to the economical arrangement of plan, improved methods of con-
struction, modern design, eto. p
My building is said to show up in 3ize, workmanship arid
design better than some which have cost almost double the amount, and
it is generally admired and favorably oommented upon by all. I would
not build again without specially prepared plans for five times their
-ost.
Yours sincerely.

Dear Sir:-
I an just coveting my nw residence for which younftde'
plans and specifications, and .over which you have exercised ft
watchful interest during its construction. Your work has been so'
very satisfactory that had I a kindred houses to build, I would
employ you to make plans and specifications for then, and then
superintend their construction. My experience with yo\i justifies
the advice given me by a practical builder when I first announced
my determination to, build. Said he: "Get a competent, reliable
architect to make your plans ana specifications, and superintend
the work, and you will be saved hundreds of dollars and a world
of annoyance."

Dear Sir:-,
We received plans in good shape,
and the church has been built and we are al1
pleased. Heretofore we have had experience
in church plans with Eastern architects,
which at first made us skeptical in this

+ain amount, the lowest bid was just double
the original estimate.
We feel that you have treated us 12
a strictly professional and conscientious
manner.

Replying to jour letter of recent date, would say that the
plans which you made for the two "business blocks and one residence,

State.
Should I do any building in the future, I will certainly
consult with you in regard to the matter.

If you have a fireplace you can secure four times the usual amount of
heat by using a
JACKSON VENTILATING GRATE.
These grates each heat two or more rooms on one or different floors in
severest weather, and they will heat an entire residence with two-thirds the fuel
of a furnace. Even if you have a cellar heater, a Ventilating Grate is a com-
fort and economy for Spring and Fall — as at these seasons one will heat the
entire house.
If you have no fireplace you can secure the effect of the ordinary grate
by the use of a
MAYFLOWER OPEN FRANKLIN.
These Franklins are direct copies of old Colonials, and are handsomely
finished with brass ornaments. Many people use them in preference to the
ordinary open fireplace.
MANTLES, TILES, ANDIRONS, SCREENS, ETC. We manufacture,
import and sell every good kind of a fireplace fixture and can give
lowest prices.
Catalogue L shows the Ventilating Grate. Send for this and catalogues
of whatever other fireplace fixtures you wish.

You have toiled through years of
anxiety and hope, and, at last, after *■"»
patient waiting and close economy _"__■
you have saved up a goodly sum
and the plans are ready for a cozy
cottage or a more pretentious
dwelling, ' 'A Home, ' ' the dearest spot on earth.
You determined a long time ago when this time came
that in some certain things at least you would ignore economy and indulge in a
few luxuries. A HOME IS A HOME,— WHERE YOU LIVE —THE BEST
FART OF YOUR LIFE, where ASSOCIATIONS ARE FORMED AND MEM-
ORIES CLING- through the widening years and sometimes pass into history,
SWEET WITH REMINISENCES of the past.
Perhaps you never thought of FAINT, So many more things more necessary
and more important — and yet — the wrong paint may spoil it all. There's so little
difference in the sum total of painting a house, that you can't afford to QUIBBLE
about a few cents a gallon, besides it takes a less quantity of a strictly pure arti-
cle and the cost often sums up no more in the end. The Horse Shoe Brand is of
highest excellence, with an excess of Zinc White— (that finest of all pigments)—
combined with White Lead, Pure Linseed Oil, and the necessary Color and Drier.
Guaranteed and sold subject to chemical analysis.
Don't run any risk about it. Get the best and avoid regrets. Vbu're safe
with the Horse Shoe Brand.

In hundreds of Railroad and Insurance
Offices it is saving the salary of several clerks
for each Comptometer in service, and accounts
are being kept which it would not pay to keep
if the computation had to be done mentally.
Used by Accountants and Engineers in all
lines of business.
In the United States Navy Department over 85 Comptometers are used on
Engineering Computation.
Nearly one thousand manufacturing and commercial firms after buying one
Comptometer have ordered a second one, and scores have purchased and use in
their accounting rooms from 10 to 25 each.
It insures accuracy. No lever to operate; simply touching the keys does it
all. Simple, light, compact and durable. Many thousands in use.

toons. It is a mantel that shows the hand of the skillful carver, as the flowers
stand out in bold relief, so natural that you can almost imagine you can pluck
them out one by one. The cut does not do this mantel justice, as it onlv conveys
a faint idea of the exquisiteness of this mantel.

AIR
^_ ^^.'UisiiHMIW
The Principle of the
Kelsey is to warm great
volumes of air by bringing
it into actual contact with an extensive and properly heated surface.
This is accomplished by sending the air in separate channels through
the long hollow corrugated cast iron sections which form the fire chamber.
This is a far more effective method, and the air is more thoroughly and
evenly heated than by simply passing over or next to a hot surface.
Each section has eight square feet of heating surface, and weighs about
! seventy pounds.
There are from nine to seventeen sections in each Generator, according
to its size.
This means a powerful and economical Heater, and an abundance of pure
warm (not over-heated) air.
Each section is an independent heat generator, and by capping over one
or more, and extending a heat conducting pipe therefrom, the warm air is
forced through long or level pipes to the rooms so connected.
Investigate the Battery System, for large residences, churches, etc.
There's only one "Warm Air Generator, — The "Kelsey," and it is
patented.
Ask for Booklets, — "Kelsey Heating" and "Opinions."

CASTLES IN SPAIN
TRADE
FAB-RI-KONA
MARK
Are you building a new home ?
No?
Then why are you reading Olivers' book ?
Oh,— you expect to build one soon. — Not until you have improved
several of your Spanish estates.
That is as it should be. Artistic people usually build a great many
Castles in Spain before attempting to build one at home. That is
why they succeed so well. They gain experience and breadth of view.
Besides they can thus compare many styles of architecture and
decoration.
Decoration, that was the point we had in mind when we first
sought your acquaintance.
Have yon noticed the walls of the Castles in Spain which you have
built or visited?
Weren't they beautiful?
They were covered with woven fabrics.
Hadn't you thought of that before ? No ? But you realized their
beauty. We thought so.
Well, the fact is that almost all Castles in Spain have wall coverings
of some rich woven texture.
Now, when you think of it, havn't all your Castles in Spain owed
much of their beauty to the rich deep tones of color, — the soft
light, reflected from the ancient tapestry on the walls ?
Really now, — can you imagine a Castle in Spain without tapestried
walls ?
And what were your plans for your home ?
Did you think that your Castles in Spain would be the only places
where you could revel in the luxuriance, the depth of color, the beauty
of texture, of woven fabrics on your walls?
Not so. — Ask your own decorator. While you have been traveling
among your Spanish possessions, he has been learning the value, from
a practical view point, of Fab-Ri-Ko-Na Burlaps and other woven
wall coverings.
He can tell you lots of things, — how fast the colors are, — how
cracks in the walls are impossible, — how the damage of plaster, by
contact with furniture, is prevented.'
He can tell you many things, too, about Fab-Ri-Ko-Na which you
have observed, have felt, in your Castles of Spain, but you had never
supposed that they could be realized at home.
Ask the decorator and insist on hearing all about Fab-Ri-Ko-Na.
Let him tell you what he knows about other wall fabrics, burlaps,
buckrams, etc. It is well that you should know. If you then want
to know more abont Fab-Ri-Ko-Na, have the decorator write, or write
yourself, for samples and information to Messrs. J. Spencer Turner Co.
of 71-73 Worth St., New York. 228 Fifth Ave., Chicago. 803 Wash-
ington Ave., St. Louis, or 13 Jewin Crescent, London.

BRIEF SUGGESTIONS.
If Interested in
the erection of a
building, for either
private or public
use, you can secure
as good or belter
services of this
office than else-
where, and at no
more cost for pians
Many have little
or no conception
of the value of a
competent archi-
tect's services and
are content with
merely the scale
plans, without the'
vitally • important
detail drawings
When you build,
make it attractive.
Obviate that ever-
lasting sameness
in style. Consult
an architectof abil-
ity, large practice,
moi'ern methods
and ideas. It is
money well-spent
Home-builders by
all means secure
an architect. Dis-
criminate against
cheap publishing
company pians.
Employ competent
aid. You cannot
build rightly from
mere picture plans
Having a special
department for the
planning of low-
cost houses it is
reasonable to pre-
sume that you can
secure better and
quicker services of
this office thnacaii
be had elsewhere
it costs no more to
embody style, con-
venience and econ-
omy in plan ar-
rangement than
when It is com-
monplace. Make a
wise selection of
your architect and
depend on results
My ideas are not
cheap ideas and
therefore I cannot
usually enter into
work competitive-
ly, as many do, at
a possible loss, but
will guarantee en-
tire satisfaction in
plan arrangement
(See S5sketch offer.)
The importance
of employing an
architect, fully
capable in design,
can hardly be esti-
mated. The archi-
tecture of to-day
should be educa-
tional in style to
inspire civic pride
flf you intend to
fbuild at all soon,
place your order
now. It is none too
early. Take time
to formulate your
ideas in a practical
way, with the aid
of an architect of
broad experience
Your building can
be distinctly novel
In all respects as
to bespeak your
individuality, yet
a poor selection of
architect will rep-
resent you detri-
mentally, with a
monument of folly
My success in plan-
ning stylish houses
is in readily seeing
my clients' desires,
producing for them
a better home than
was expected for a
given sum. Prepar-
edness is really the
secret of my success
A special feature
of my buildings is;
they are not dis-
appointing when
built, but pleasing
in general appear-
ance. This is due
to starling right
with the Important
preliminary plans
Where the work is
of sufficient import
and transportation
is furnished, a per-
sonal visit will be
made, and a suit-
able arrangement
of plan and design
arrived at before
leaving your city
MY SPECIALTY

a 0 ARTISTIC HOME,S
Ei'HE EMPLOYED AN ARCHITECT.
HE made a fortune buying lots.
Converting them to pretty spots,
And building pleasant homes to sell —
For Roycroft always builded well,
Substantial, healthy, handy homes;
With arches, gables, peaks and domes,
Piazzas, oriels and handsome towers,
Half hidden in the trees and flowers .
Each house was varied from the rest-
Like pretty women, nicely dressed.
He scarce could hold a house till done,
For at least two buyers sought each one.
HOW Roycroft did it, none could learn;
He was so very taciturn.
When dying, Roycroft told his spouse
The secret: "When you want a house,
Secure an architect at once."
(He who hires himself, a dunce employes.)
The architect may make one door
Serve where you might put in four or more .
He, knowing laws of heat and light,
Devises rooms so all are bright.
Cuts windows just the size and where,
They yield the utmost light and air.
PROVIDES for all things ample space,
Keeping everything in proper place;
Learns what you want before he starts,
Saves adding costly little parts .
Remember, it is not the size —
Arrangement makes the home we prize.
Outside he moulds the charm of "style"
From basement to the topmost tile.
He requires material enough ,
Describes the proper sort of stuff,
Everything is clearly specified,
So it is fair to either side.
WHAT is experiment with you,
He knows precisely how to do .
What can be done, with what effect:
What not to do , how to select^^sss
Saves steps for housewivesJ|fflP^ lee*>
Supplies control of ffi* %!3^eat,
No nous**- <*- gal|V g Utop reckless haste
pse— ■**c.rt°!1 of.oJinctiveness and taste.
i*^r5rCveafing-down and building twice,
With "changes" at a fancy price.
Your house will rarely cost you more
Than you have calculated on before.
THE first house I built, I .recollect,
I had an amatuer architect,
And many often asked me what
Had happened to that vacant lot.
Was it an air-ship that had lit
Or simply an architectural mis-fit?
I patched that house and there it stood
Reflecting on the neighborhood,
Till Providence, in righteous ire,
Redeemed its ugliness with fire .
My buildings, subsequent, were wrought
On paper first, with thorough thought.

Be up-to-date when you build.
This is too progressive an age to build
"epite-houses" unknowingly, and lose
the respect of your neighborhood. If
you haven't the proper conception of
what is modern in architecture, consult
an expert first. Don't lavish your
hard-earned dollars on something com-
monplace, when with proper assistance
you oan curtail expenses and have an
artistic and more practical building.
Furthermore don't believe every-
thing is artistic which is said to be so.
A certain amount of discrimination is
neoessary. Try to get something origi-
nal and avoid "that sameness." I en-
deavor to make every house different
and I improve on every job turned out.
I have never attained the perfection
which some have claimed. Pospibly I
We have had much success

experience in this line as in all

lems very easy to us.

never will, but I manage to keep in advance of
my competitors who in most cases are my best
advertisers. The facilities of this office for turn-
ing out a high grade of architectural work are not
excelled in any part of the United States. The
fact that a greater portion of my work cornea
from the East where architecture is most fully
appreciated, evidences much in my favor. My work
is not altogether confined to residences, churches,
etc., as many presume. These are only depart-
ments of our large office. We prepare plans for
schools, court houses, libraries,

ONE-STORY COTTAGES.
The one-story cottage is perhaps the most
home-like affair that was ever built,
especially for the good housewife, who
does her own work and its advantages
are: all rooms within easy reach, no
stairs to climb, and no long cold halls.
Some very good plans will be found on
the following pages: 66 to 185, 289, 294,

TWO STORY COTTAGES.
In order to economize in roof and foun-
dations, it is sometimes well to build
two stories, yet not so convenient- Some
very economical two-story cottages will
be found on the following pages: 193, 196,
197, 199, 218, 220, 288, 300, 308, 309, 326. 364,

754, 800, 815.
FLAT BUILDINGS.
St. Louis is the greatest city in the coun-
try for flat buildings, and having
planned hundreds of such buildings in
the city, can give my out of town cli-
ents, who wish special plans prepared,
the benefit of a very large experience in
this line. I give a few flat plans on the
following pages: 684, 788, 790, 798, 810.
DOUBLE HOUSES.
I publish a special book on double houses,
price 50 cents, and give a few plans of
same on the following pages: 290, 342,
684, 794 to 799, 811.
BRICK HOUSES.
My practice in the city of St. Louis ia
confined almost exclusively to office
buildings, apartment buildings, churches,
flats, and high class brick residences. I
' do not publish plans of any of these, as
they are too costly to interest the aver-
age house owner- I give plans, how
... ever, of a few suitable suburban brick
houses, on the following pages: 90, 91,
97, 169, 293, 313, 412, 476, 486, 546, 559, 653.
654, 656 to 704, 749, 750, 764. 801 to 813
SOUTHERN HOMES.
We plan a great many Southern houses,
and have given the special requirements
of same very close attention. Some
houses especially adapted for Southern
houses will be found on the following
pages: 306, 311, 314, 316, 317, \325, 330, 334,
336, 350, 351, 352, 407. 434, 475, 479, 480, 513,

BELL LONG-DISTANCE PHONE
MAIN 1654-M.
The long distance 'phone, of which we have two special long-distance
transmitters in our office, is a great convenience to our clients who hurridly
wish to discuss their plans. We can also arrange to receive such messages at
6 o'clock, therefore making the night rate quite reasonable. When the oper-
ator states that Mr. so-and-so wants to speak, we immediately find his plans,
correspondence, etc., so as to facilitate quick answers. The rate for a 3-min-
ute message in different localities scattered over the U. S. given below, will
give you an idea of the nominal cost of such communication.
