Principal Front on F Street.
The principal front of the building
faces F street, and is six stories above
the sidewalk, with a ground story and
basement below. Owing to the grade
on 18th and 18th streets the wings on
E street are seven stories above the
grade.
OF three main entrances on F street

each side, near to 18th and 18th streets.
There is also to be an entrance at each
of the three wings on f street. and a
private entrance-intended for the use
OF the Secretary of the Interior-on
18th street near E street
In design the building is exceedingly
simple. In style it may best be de-
scribed as American office building
architecture of the most dignified type.
The details in general are a modern
and free adaptation of the style of
Louis XVI.
The requirements that the building
be amply lighted has naturally pre-
vented the use of colonnades. The size
of the windows has naturally resulted
in a system of grouping of several
stories into one long opening in the
masonry. Ornamental cast iron panels
fill the spaces between stories, giving
to the elevations the appearance of
being faced with broad. fiat pilasters.
and adding grace and lightnesS to the
massive construction.
The elevation on F. street is divided
by rather slight projections into three
pavilions, corresponding to the three
north and south wings. The side Gle
vations have end pavilions only. With
the exception of the main cornice.

RHEUMATISM A MYSTERY

Some diseases give immunity from

Every attack of rheumatism invites

disease which physicians find more

body knows how or why it does it.
All authorities agree that the blood
becomes thin with alarming rapidity
as rheumatism develops. Maintaining
the quality of the blood therefore is
q reasonable way of preventing and
combating rheumatism. That it works
out in fact is shown by the beneficial
results in the treatment of rheuma-
tism, acute, muscular and articular
