Changes have been made In the plana
of the Buchanan building on Washing
ton street, between Fourth and Fifth,
which will make it one of the finest
professional buildings In Portland. The
Interior fittings are being especially de
signed to answer the needs of phy
sicians and dentlsta Every room In the
building will be equipped with hot and
cold water and In addition to this com
pressed air will be furnished every
room, for la these days of mo Sam
surgery compressed air Is used for
many purposes and no strictly profes
sional building Is without It In addi
tion to these conveniences there will
be special electrical connections for
power purposes
The building will alee be cleaned by
the pneumatic process, The Janitor. In
stead of going Into a room and stirring
op the dust with broom and feather
duster only to have It alight again, will
use a pneumatic cleaner. In each room
will be an opening that leads Into a
pipe and by turning on the air all
dirt and dust In the room will be drawn
Into thla pipe and through It will go
Into the cellar to be burned la the
furnace.
The Portland Trust company, which

served by doctors and dentists, and ap
plications have bean received for of
fices on the other floors. It Is an
nounced that the rent of offices will
range from 111 to (10 a month, which
Is regarded aa reasonable, for those
prices are no greater than charged In

Rheumatism can be inherited ' and
that fact proves It to be a disease ef

treat it through the blood If a perma

cations may give temporary relief from
pain but as long ss the poisonous sold
is la the blood the pain will return, per
haps in a nsw place, but It will surely
return. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure
rheumatism because they go directly to
the neat of the disorder, purifying and
enriching the blood.
