NEW STYLE OF ARCHITECTURE
Long Sought and Made Possible Only
Through the Employment Of Mod
ern Reinforced Concrete.

Planning a memorial church to be
built entirely of concrete, an American
architect introduces a novel mode of
construction and claims to have found
what architects for centuries have
failed to prOduce-an entirely new and
pure style Of architecture. Pure, be-
cause 1t conforms to all the essential
ideas of architecture new, because
only modern reinforced concrete has
made it possible" The structure takes
advantage Of the Elasticity of rein
forced concrete, and the building,
which would be practically monOlithic
when finished, would have its external
and internal forms identical to a
degree new 10 architecture; its vaults
would spring direct from the floor
level and there would be no separat-
ing distinction between walls and roof.
In fact, one might say that the build
ing would be "all roof, and have no
structural walls whatever" Archi-
tectural opinion may fail Of unani-
nous approval; yet it must be adj
mitted that the plan seems to adapt
itself logically to the medium In which
1t is to be worked out, which is an
important point in its favOE-Ex-
change.

Recalls Roman Conquest.

The sale is announced of the an
cient Caerwent, MOnmouthshire. Eng
land, which is mentioned in DOmesday
Book. This town (Benta Silurium)
was the headquarters of a powerful
and warlike tribe called Silures, who
occupied Approximately the counties
of Monmouth, Brecon and Glamorgan."
In spite of the fierce resistance offered
by them, about 4S A. D., to the Ro-
man conquest, their town in time be-
came Roman city, not unlike Sill
chester, but smaller.
The old walls and gateways still
survive, and the many excavations, car
ried out have discovered Roman relics
of much Interest," town hall and
market square, temple, baths, fres-
coed panels, and also water pipes, said
to have carried drinking water from
the hills.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness.
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces
OF the System. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an innamed condition Of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube Is inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when 1t is entirely closed. Deafness is the
result Unless the Inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing may be destroyed
forever. Many cases OF Deafness are
caused by Catarrh, which is an intlamed
condition of the Mucous Surfaces.

careful study. Why the practice
started II is now impossible to say; II
looks almost like a playfulness on the
part Of the first builders, but Il has
continued down the ages, and its latest
example occurs in the great peace

the inscription closely he might dis
cover, that certain letters, beginning
with the first a." are distinguished
from the rest by having an indenta-

Plants Name SIGNIFICANT.

The spelling of Mangel-Wurzel is a
question which appears capable of be-
ing settled in different ways. What
Is really interesting about the word
is the fact that its name was altered
from Runkelruben by the German
people. At a time of famine Runkel-
ruben saved the people from starva-
ton, and was for that reason given
the new name of Mangel-Wurzel, lit
orally famine root" The plant stood
the Germans in good stead during the
latter days of the recent war, thus
once more earning its sObriquet, by
which II is known everywhere in Eng
land.--Christian Science Monitor.
