To most of tho people the selection of a house design and the details of the contrast Is one of the most Impor- tant events In their whole lives. For the average man does not intend to build more limn one home during that (lino and ho wants, If powjlhle, to have a home, for his children when he pnsses Into the Great Iteyond. In the planning of this new home there are many factors to ••be considered, but the two Important considerations are iliiraliility und cgjnfort. A- home pos- sessing these, two qualities is bound to prove successful. Too many home hii'lil.-rs have overlooked the basic foundations of a real home In their zeal to get something freakish and different, They wanted a show place, and Bl a'result lost sight of the true character of the home. A few years luter they have regytted their action for the so-culled shoWplU'-e was merely a shell, and soon hex-nine .the worse for weur und teur.

Severul years elapsed before the value of this Inven- tion was raTOfnlHfi generally. In the meant line the Inventor Wai busy mak- ing improvements and taking out oth- er patents and In 1ST t hud brought the skat.i practically to its present condition. . * The device of \cramping\ the wheel* secured the initial mil-cess of roller skating. The earlier Inventions were crude iitl'iuis compared with the mod- ern appliances. About lHIM the mania for roller nkmlng appeared in Engluud.
