compel them to be on their feet from
morning to night, and many of them,
in short time, contract these dis
tressing complaints called "female

Then occur Irregularities, suppressed
or painful menstruation, weakness,
indigestion, leucorrh9a, general de-
bility and nervous prostration.
They are beset with such symptoms
as dizziness, faintness, lassitude, ex-
cita ability, irritability, nervousness,
sleeplessness, melancholy, all-gone :"
and want to-be-left alone feelings,
blues and hopelessness.
In such cases there is one tried and
true remedy. Lydia f. Pinkham's

such troubles. The following is q

Something About the View structure.

nesque-Norman Desksa For the
New First Presbyterian Church :
Something About the New Structure.
The plans for the new Presbyterian
church have at last arrived, and haze
] been adopted by the finance committee
and the building committee.
special meeting of these committees
| was held this week, and the plans laid
before them
The plans are for a very handsome
structure, somewhat Romanesque IN
design, but not pure example of that
stvle of architecture, the structure be-
ing modified by an infusion of the
Norman.
The new church will not only present
an attractive appearance, but VIII be
unusually convenient in its interior ar
rangement 1t is to be so constructed
that the main auditorium, the lecture
room and all the Sunday school rooms
NAV be thrown together, forming one
large auditorium. The auditorium will
be oblong in shape with broad aisleS
running out from the pulpit, the see
tions of pews being narrower at the
altar and gradually widening out. The
pulpit is to be centrally located and
VIII Dt dijIdtilNttA ttlI 0Nts ii'
organ alcove is to one side of the pull
pit, SO the choir will be on the right
hand side of the preacher. Just n rear
of the pulpit will be located tae pas
tors study.
The architect has SO arranged the
building that the congregation may
worship there during the time Of its
erection. While the lecture room and
Sunday school rooms are being built,
they may continue to worship IN the
present church. When these are com
pleted the old church will be torn
down aud the congregation will wor-
ship in the new lecture room.
Then the church proper can be COM
pleted at the congregation leisure, as
funds for its completion may be raised.
The building committee has been con-
sidering plans since January and have
lust come to a conclusion. The plans
first selected were by a Chattanooga
architect and called fr a Romanesque
building. But many of the members
wanted Gothic building and a lot OF
Gothic plans were submitted Plan
after plan was presented by different
architects, but the committee disagreed
ON all of them. AT last it was agreed
to place the whole matter in the hands
of a Baltimore architect, who would
study the plans and purposes of the
committee, He has embodied many OF
their suggestions in the new plan that
has just been accepted.
Work on the building will begin
soon. and when completed this will be
one of the handsomeSt churches i'm the
State.
