He says: “I had aathma for abont nine months, and was In very bad condition. I had spent $98.00 for treatments, without any relief. My trouble really started ■with flu back In 1918. I couldn't sleep at ni*'ht, would choke up and have to be propped up In bed. I had shortness of breath, a tight cough and pains In ray stomach. I sold ray household goods, intending to go to Colorado for relief, but a friend recommended Nacor and I began taking It in August, 1924. I had not been able to work all spring and summer. On the 13th of September. 1924, I started to work again and have since been able to work hard every day without any 111 effects. I have only taken 2% bottles of N'acor and am entirely well; no symptoms ot asthma, pains or cough and my breathing Is good again. I haven't taken any medicine since November. 1924, and am enjoying the best of health.” Hundreds of people who suffered for years from asthma, bronchitis and severe chronic coughs, have told how their trouble left and never returned.

Beauty Considered Important Factor in Business Buildings

New business section at Talbo tt Ave. and Thirtieth St.

In this week’s Liberty magazine, page 21, this statement Is made: "You see In the architecture of business buildings, evidence of the dawning realization of the very large part that beauty can p1ay....” A striking Illustration of this blending of architectural beauty utility, Is the recently completed business block at Thirtieth St. and Talbott Ave.. designed and built by COLDBLASTS KEPT OUT BY METALSTRIPS Loose Windows Cost Money These Long, Wintry Days. What aro your loose windows costing you? Considerable, these wintry days. If steady, knlfellke streams of cold air are sifting through cracks of v.ncaulked windows. "Do you know,” asked L. V. Hamilton, manager of the Superior Metal Products Company, 603 Fidelity Trust building, "that a seven-room house with three outside doors and sixteen windows, on a cold, windy day, will permit 1,180 cubic feet of Icy air to enter your home every minute—day and night?” Widely Adopted The Superior, anew type of Interlocking weather strip, is being widely adopted In such buildings as the Spink Hotel and five Spink apartments, new Union Title and the Peoples Bank buildings and Delaware Court apartments. It also is found in numbers of residences, among them the homes of Mayor Duvall. ex-Mayor Shank and J. F. Wild, banker. Some advantages of this weather strip are that It can be installed on new work; when sashes dry out, the Superior doesn’t lose its efficiency, and casement windows fitted with this strip positively will not leak. Test Result* Hamilton calls attention to the results of tests given out by the research laboratories. Bureau of Mines, in Pittsburgh, These tests, made under supervision of American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers and reported In the American Builder, prove that a plain, unlocked window with one-sixteentl) to one-fourth Inch cracks showed a fuel cost a season of 2,215 pounds of anthracite, the same window, with ordinary ribbed type weather strip, showed fuel cost reduction to 1,062 pounde, but with Interlocking strips as the Superior, the cost was re duced to 605 pounds. This, wheh fuel is at top notch prices, is important information. , The Superior Metal Weather Strip is attracting much attention at the exhibit of the Architects’ Small House Service Bureau.

Mothershead & Fitton. .The building has the unique advantage of being set well back on the plat of corner ground, allowl ag a wide lawn which is being landscaped, to the front and to one side. It Is of quaintly charming design, with four gables, the two end ones rising somewhat higher than the center gables. To the rear of the building there is a long court, with a brick wall running its length, an artistic arched entrance and a broad, white, carved gate. The building Itself is built of high quality, vertical-scored brick with stone trim and ‘the stone designing Is worked out In careful detail. On one side of the building, facing the side lawn, a fireplace effect harmoniously breaks the straight, uninteresting line of conventional business building. Within the first store room, the fireplace effect works out In a recessed space; as the lessee In this particular store room has an imported novelty shop, the recess is striking with a display of brasses from India and Syria. The walls here, as in the other five store rooms, are of artistic rough oil finish, done in' deep cream with walnut woodwork. Six frosted light fixtures down the length of the room, hang from chains and there are frequent wall brackets. Above this room, as In the store room at the other end of the building, there are two upper rooms, used for extra stock. The doors of the building are arched, with upper ’part of sectioned glass and are In keeping with the windows which quite get away from the usual, uninteresting store room window. The lighting arrangement of all six storerooms is particularly good, and with the excellent material entering into every feature of these Interiors, gives a background of quality to the stock of the different lessees.
