May Utilize the Odd Space for Bathroom How*"One Householder Addâ€" ed to the Convenience of His Home. It is surprising the number of cornâ€" €1s available in the average home for the installation of bathrooms. The householder witching to take advantage of modernization schemes under the Home Improvement Plan has doubtless been giving considerable thought to one of the most serious deficiencies, the lack of an extra bathroom.

One householider utilized a small ‘ag end of space and produced a very modern, upâ€"toâ€"date bathroom. All fixâ€" tures are contained in a space 7 feet bvâ€" 58 inches. At the plumber‘s suggestion, a builtâ€" in tub was placed along the one end â€"* the room, and a twoâ€"inch space was left between the tub and the wall to provide space for a "bathâ€"bar"â€"a ledge with a chrcmiumâ€"plated rail to acâ€" commodate bath salts, soap and other acccesso~ies. The shower was placed over the tub. A handsome vitrecus china lavatory sOLDMD BY Mill Office, Timmins Phone 709 Phone 4 hone 221 PHONXE 84 Phone was fitted into the small nook and proâ€" vided with one of the new combination faucets which have become so popular in kitchen sinks, allowing the user to wash in tempered water. The bowl is comparativély small, and allows conâ€" siderable space on top for toilet articles, in recognition of the fact that most people now use the bathroom as A dressing room and the lavatory as a dressing table. The medicine cabinel, with mirror, is placed directly above the lavatory and has lights on either side. Smart chromiumâ€"plated faucets and escutcheons are in the same design, and panclied effects are carried out in the tub, lavatory, closet and towel bars. "Consult an experienced plumbing contractor and he will gladly offer oriâ€" ginal and helpful suggestions for makâ€" ing the most of unused space," advises the Canadian Instituie of Plumbing and Heating, "and you will realize how much extra beauty, efficiency and health safety are obtainable for a small investment." How Old City House was Modernized in Apartments The owner of an old city house deâ€" cided to turn it into small apartments. The problem was to make each apartâ€" ment as distinctive as possible and keep them from being uniform. Plans were made for one and twoâ€" rocm apartments. The architect who planned the remodelling of the buildâ€" ing designed the oneâ€"room apartments with a maximum amount of floor space in the living room, and small bathâ€" rooms and kitchenettes. When the owner furnished the apartments she selected plain furnishings and through simplicity gained an effect of smartness as well as spaciousness. One apartment had walls of plain grey, with a white Grecian design on one wall. The ceilings were high and leng windows were uncurtained and had white venetian blinds. Floors were painted black and the woodwork white. The room had no central illumination, but numerous lamps gave adequate light. Recogniamg the rental value of such a feature, a fireplace unit was installed. It was of a black composition material and a large square unframed mirror was hung over it. White lamps and other accessories were used with a touch of bright blue for accent,. Bathroom Now Given Special Attention Modern Style of Bathroom Different from Old Type of This Room. The day of the prosaic bathroom is gone forever. No longer is it just a rGoOom for one‘s bath and a place to hide the niop and carpet sweeper. It has become an integral part of the decorating scheme in the modern house. Daring colour schemes frequently apâ€" pear and close attention is given the most minute detail by the fastidious housewife who exerts her decorating ability on this room. An oldâ€"fashioned bathroom is an inâ€" convenience which need not be counâ€" tenanced. Under the terms of the Home Improvement Plan amounts up to $2000 may be obtained from any Canadian bank for modernization of a private home. One bathroom showed what may be done through modernization. A nondeâ€" script cubicle was transformed by an ambitious home owner into an attracâ€" tive room. A particularly interesting feature is‘ the shelf which was built between the bathtub and the wall. This holds bath' salts, dusting powder and other accesâ€". sories and is a decorative asset as well. A composition covering in marble deâ€" sign wasp laced on the floor and _ a washable wall paper covered the walls. The picture mould was painted a dark colour which harmonizes with the paper and boarders the ceiling. A cenâ€" tral lighting fixture gives adequate light for the entire room. The cabinet in which the wash hasin is set, is purchased as a complete unil and serves a double purpose. It comâ€" pletely hides the plumbing fixtures, and makes repairs possible without the disâ€" agreeable task of tearing out walls and floors. Space in the top may be used ior the storage of bathroom linens. The mirror serves as a door to the medicine chest. The woodwork around the window is an original note. It was painted to harâ€" monize with the twoâ€"toned floor coverâ€" ing. A modern bath stool was purchased by the owner to complete the modern room and is in keeping with the chromâ€" iumâ€"legged wash stand.

The basement reached by a stairway directâ€" Attic May be Turned into a Pleasant Extra Room for Guests. If you enjoy visitors and like to have company. be sure that your home has an attractive guest rooin.

If you haven‘t such a room in yCur home and there is available spaceâ€"in the attic, cr a littleâ€"used den or sewing roomâ€"you can obtain modernization funds through a bank under the Home Improvement Plan and create a guest room. One homeâ€"owner used attic space to make a most attractive guest room. The unusual shape of the room, with the slanting ceilings was played up in the decorating and became an asset rather than a liability. Wall board was used to hide the unfinished attic walls, and was then papered. Mculding was used effectively to borâ€" der the straight section of the ce‘ling. The two sides cf the walls toward which the ceiling sloped were finished in the same ivory paper that was used on the ceiling, and a gay floral patt( ‘n paper was used on the siding at either end of the room. ruest Room Adds to Attraction of Home The regular attic floor was smoothec stained and polisned. Adequate elec tric outlets were provided to care fo the lamps necessary to the room needs. The furniture, which was purciased with the hcusewife‘s own funds, was well suited to the quaint room. A fourâ€" poster bed was placed unuaer the slopâ€" ing ceiling. A valance, hung along the nmiculding, formed a cantpy and white dotted swiss curtains hung at the sides A plain rug covered the floor and small hcoked suatter rugs were placed in front of the dresser and at the sides of ‘the bed. Pink glazed chintz curâ€" tains hung at the window. Lamp shades were pink, throwing a rosy glow over the room at night. A mahogzany cthest of arawers, sewing table and nightâ€"stand completed the furnishings. Flower prints and silhouâ€" ettes were hung on the walls.

A simple field test for determining presence of gold in ore is described in a paper published in the June Bulâ€" letin of the Canadian Institute of Minâ€" ing and Metallurgy. By the use of this simple test the prospector is enabled to determine whether the ore contains more than $2 of gold per ton and thus enables him to form some opinion of the value of his discovery without havâ€" ing to send the samples to an assay office. As described, the test consists of takâ€" ing approximately two pounds of the mineralized rock and powdering it as fine as possible. The powder is panned in the usual manner and the heavy minerals concentrated. As much of the ccncentrates as can be held on R twentyâ€"fiveâ€"cent piece is placed in an ordinary tube which is about oneâ€"third filled with a ten per cent. solution of iodine. The whole is heated for about ten minutes without boiling and allowed to stand until it becomes clear. fly means of an eye dropper the solution is evaporated drop by drop on a hot watch glass. If gold is present in excess of $2 per ton a gold mirror will be formed on the watch glass. The absence of such a mirror after successive tests indicates that little or no gold is preâ€" sent. The total cost of equipment for makâ€" ing the test is less than $5 and no speâ€" cial skill is required in using it. Branch Office Kirkland LAke Phone 393 B3 /1B
