VALLEY BANK
 IN NEW HOME Moved Yesterday Into Hand-
 some Quarters GREC|AN ARCHITECTURE
Lends Its Beauty to an h. stitution Equipped With Modern Furnishings, and
 Every Device Facilitating Business of ofFinancial House

The Valley bank yesterday moved into its new home on Adams street, between Center street and First ave nue, the beautiful concrete structure erected for its special use and con- venience by Dwight B. Heard. The architecture of the building is of Grecian design, quite plain, but mas sive and imposing, and finished with a modern, heavy plate-glass front. The building is of but one story, though it equals in height most two story structures. It looks even larger from within than it does from the outside, an unusual effect, due in large measure to the great height of the single story, which is twenty-six feet, inside, from floor to ceiling, giv- ing the lobby almost a cathedral like appearance.
 The front of the building is orna- mented by two plain but costly cleo doorway, and by two signs bearing the name of the bank and the date of it's establishment, 1883. The let ters are of raised copper on a back ground of steel, these signs, only three or four feet square, costing, ap- proximately, S1O0 each.
 Entering the open Grecian front, one finds himself in a small vestibuIe, through which he passes through swinging doors of mahogany into the lobby. The lobby has a floor space

The organs of the child all become larger. The skin begins to grow hair the glands and cells of the skin ap- parently become stronger and larger Impurities occur in the system and poisons enter the blood and are thrown off, usually from the face. in the form of pimples.
 l Mothers should zealously guard the child against serious blood impurity at this time. Our grandmothers gave sarsaparilla, sassafras root. cream of tartar and sulphur every spring These simple remedies did a good work, but science has discovered the most powerful and beneficial blood purifier to be Calcium Sulphide
 Stuart's Calcium Waters are pre- pared after the most modern method of conveying the full strength of Cal cium Sulphide to the blood. They lost none of it through evaporation and chemical change. like most cal cium sulphide remedies sold today. Stuart's Calcium Waters also contain Quassia, Golden Seal and Eucalyptus. all known purifiers of great power. Combined with these ingredients is a pure vegetable alternative and laNa- tive which, when the other ingredi- ents clear the blood from poisons and decay, throw off this impure matter from the system through the bowels and in natural, easy manner
 Stuart's Calcium Waters should be in every household, and used by the parent for the benefit of the child. They are harmless, promote normal and digestion, beautify the skin and enrich the blood so neces- sary to the rapid growth of the child.
 Go to your druggist Ask his opin- ion of Calcium Sulphide as the Stu art process presents it to the blood He will sell you a package for 50 cents, or send us your name and ad- dress and we will send you a trial package by mail free. Address F. A. Stuart Co.,, 175 Stuart Bldg, Marshall, Mich.

 ing sound so frequently objected to
 in the ordinary thing, and affording
 a resilliency that feels to the fest more like the touch of a carpet, and less like heartless stone, than the common tile floor. Electric chande- Hers of artistic conception are pro- vided and appropriate lighting devices in harmony with them adorn the many desks of the bank, ready for use on a cloudy day, or 'at night, if need be.
 A handsome water cooler or drink ing fountain is near the door on en- tering, the bank management appreci- ating the onward march of the prohi- bition movement, and knowing that in this climate one must drink some thing occasionally. Two large com- partment check tables are convenient ly set for patrons, and here and there a seat for those who must await their turn at one window or another.
 On entering, the general view is as follows: Straight ahead. at the rear of the lobby of the main banking room, which is 50xs0 feet in size, the eye rests on the huge two-story vault. the floor dimensions of which are 14X14. It is surmounted by an orna- mental cornice. an exact replica of the front of the building, giving the general impression of solidity, a mas sive small building inside of a mas sive large building. The second floor of the vault is reached by a steel stairway at one side, leading to a sort of mezzanine floor in front of the vault. A further description of the vault will follow as the details of the institution are more particularly de- scribed.
 Beginning at the left of the en- trance to the lobby, and circling down the west wall to the vault, crossing in front of it and returning along the east side of the lobby to the front door, the banking compartments will be described in order. the fixtures all being of heavy mahogany and steel grill work, seven and a half feet high. From the top of the fixtures to the ceiling, and including that steel and concrete construction, is a delicate maroon tint applied by a skillful artist with brush and oil and colors
 The first compartment is 12.Sx16 feet and contains the desks of the president, cashier and assistant cash fer The next cage" is the note de- partment and, in order, the exchange and collection departments. Next comes a door through which patrons pass to the safety deposit department, and the directors pass to their con- ference room beyond. This door is in the angle between the fixtures along the west wall and the row of cages in front of the vault. These are three in number, one for the pay ing teller and two for receiving tellers.
 In tn next angle is the door that leads to rear apartments of the building. to be mentioned in due course, and
