Text Appearing Before Image:
their flues in front of their walls, not yet having learnedto place them in chases and recesses. We, on the other hand,often go to the other extreme, and riddle our walls with somany flues that we seriously weaken the carrying strength ofour masonry. The exit of the chimney from the house should also haveforethought. It should never be lower than the immediatelysurrounding roofs or gables, but preferably from three tofour feet higher. It should never be adjacent to a high wall.In New York City one constantly sees the ridiculous instanceswhere high apartment houses have been built beside the oldlow residences, whose chimneys on the apartment side willno longer draw. Long arms of tin pipe, twenty, thirty feethigh, carry the mouths of the flues up and away from theovershadowing wall that choked their drafts. The high wallof the apartment had been acting as a windbreak, throwingthe smoke of the fireplace right back in the room as soonas it rose. January, 1907 AMERICAN HOMES AND GARDENS 35
