In practically all Instances , w h ere a home Is parchase d , the real estate man or representative , or seller personally, sets out t he virtues of the ho me In particular. Tlie good inaiit i es are given In all cf their Ideals, the accommodations •which are to be had In the home It- Belf and tbe locality are told of with- out reservation. It Is a fact that many hoaies have r i een so ld because of some peculiarity of the same , han dsome fixtures, bea c- rJfo i approach, convenience to car line, fireplace , kitchen, light In tbe bouse, etc . Writers have stated that electric fixtures have attracted more attention than any other thin f , while others say f la t Wo. vets in homes have . bad wonderful effect Th e statement has been made that ; man y peop le who are ionising over homes to purchase see more in fi x - tures and decorations thnn In walls, foundations and constructions.

The greater number of people, It Is p o inted out. are Interested In con- veniences ami beauty; in short many : sales are made where the loroe at- : tracts t lie eye. , : Home bu ying is an important step ; in the life of any man, for It gives i tha t feeling obtained in no other way- . There arc few men in the worl d who : ore not happy to walk up to and 1 t hrough his own door. The fact that i a debt has been contracted on which i t here must Im consideration given for man y a day Is overcome with the feel- \ar of home owning. 4iuerican Taste t Rue in Residence Building : '' The people of the United States j i re increasing their expenditures for ' ivlng accomodations considerably core rapidly than the population \ .twlf Is growing.

Even then he u rged that big tracks be kept off the \busy ** st reets at ce-i a ln hours, and that carriages drive into court yards whenever possible.
