ECONOMY of COST IN BUILDING
No on' (pays Mr. Pugio in thy: Budder) would think u'
putting firth a greAt drill, or pointed churebs°
either an economical building or one easily construe'
or even convenient, according to the modern accePt.;
ti rn of the term. The cruciform plan entails numerci"
practical difficulties, and yet. it is the very foundalict
of every great church in Christendom. The enorcovo;
height, another remarkable symbolical feature, retiejlo
a vast deal cf most costly and difficult construction. L h
not imagine- that the designs of the ancient chill
builders were framed with reference to opeaon3y or is:
cility of erection; their great aim was to produce
edifice that should illustrate the majesty of its purpo,l;
and they spared neither pains nor cost to accomplish ton
end. Their works bear on their face the indelible elfil
of faith, love, and devotion, and it is the unearthly•lo°o
of these glorious fares which forms one of their greiTed
charms, and by which they are so nobly distinguis%
from all other architectural productions. A noble Pl__!.A
cruciform, lofty, and long, surmounted by spire-esPc
towers, surrounded by lateral aisles and ehapelF, rib
vided with a screened choir and solemn sanctuary. At •
all its costly and beauteous furniture, is as DOc:os
natural expression of Catholic religion in the • prey of
age as it was when the third Henry finished the chelfof
Westminster, or St. Louis dedicated the Holy Cher
Paris. tegi

Ointment and Pills has been fully proved. A man ° h 1

shins, which were so difficult to cure that almost everysrelb uloa
had been applied without any•good effect. Your be
