DECLARED TO Be WORK OF VINCI
DIRECTOR OF BERLIN MUSEUM
EXPRESSES VIEWS.
DR.. Bode Says Wax Bust Recently
Purchased IL Not Work Of
English Sculptor.

BERLIN, November 12-Dr. Bode. d.
rector of the Emperor Frederick Museum
in a forthcoming article in Die woche
defends the wax bust recently purchased
as the work OF Leonardo da vinci The
director says that the face wears the
characteristic smile Of the female figures
known to be the work of Vinci.
DR.. Bode points out many technical de.
tails which he says 60 to prove that the
bust cannot be the work Of the English
sculptor Lucas or Of a pupil OF da Vihci
He relies chiefly upon the setting of the
shoulders and the battered condition OF
the bust, which is not due. as the Eng
lish critics assert, to exposure to the
clumsy attempts at restoration. He says
that in various pieces the bust shows
the patchwork of Lucas, but wherever
the work has not been touched there
appears the exact dull brown tone which
is an undisputed characteristic of re.
naissance wax figures: and furthermore
the coloring corresponds exactly with
Leonardo da Vinci's wax bust Of a girl
in the museum at Lille.
Emperor Is Satisfied.
Dr. Bode concludes his argument with
exhibited in the Pargello at Florence
da Vinci as a work Of his youth, ap-
pears to have been a forerunner Of the
present work, in which the artist achieved
by the Venus Of Milo.

The following article, taken from
the Baltimore Sun, gives us anidea
of how we should feel las others see
us"--in our u senatorial campaisn:
The Democrats of Virginia will
nominate their party's candidate
for Governor this year at primary
election. There are two aspirants
for the nomnation--Judge William
H. Mann, of Nottoway county, and
Hon. Harry st. George Tucker, of
Norfolk. These distinguished gen.
tlemen are conducting an earnest
and interesting campaign, appear
ing before the voters on the stump
and eloquently setting forth their
respective claims for the nomina-
ton for Governor. Sometimes
they engage in joint debate. At
other times they appear separately.
Each has a strong following in the
Democratic party. Both are speak
ers of ability, adopts in oratorical
attack and defense.
The Virginia voter loves a joint
debate. He likes the thrusting and
the parryins and tho on"ntor-at-
tack, the sledgehammer blows and
the rapier-like wit and irony of the
debater. Judge Mann and Mr..
Tucker have, within proper limita-
tons, not spared each other, and
in the counties in which they have
met in joint debate they have af-
forded great delight to their adher-
ents and to Democrats generally.
In quiet country town in the Old
Dominion an oratorical tourney
gives as much pleasure as the cir
Gus. The people like to see the
i candidates for party honors stand
out in the open and acquit them
selves like men. And Mr.. Tucker
and Judge Mann have borne them
selves manfully in the peoples for
UNI. They have spoken frankly OF
each other and of themselves. Each
has pointed out the weak spots in
the equipment, record and candl-
dacy of the other, while the unter-
rihed Democracy ef the Old Domin-
ion has yelled its dissent orshouted
it's delight and satisfaction.
The joint-debate season is a sea-
son of Joy for the rural voters of
Virginia. 1t far surpasscs the lee
ture season in excitement, i'll its APP
peal for the controversial spirit of
| Virginians. And after the primary is
over and the candidate is nominat-
there will be the campaign pre-
ceding the regular election in No
vember The open season for Cratory
| in the Old Dominion is a long one
this year, and there are many Vir-
ginians who would not have it short
ened by even one day.

WOMEN Who ARE ENvIED.

Those attractive women who are
lovely in face, form and temper are
the envy Of many, who might be
like them. A weak, sickly woman
will be nervous and irritable. Con-
stipation or Kidney poisons show
in pimples, blotches, skin eruptlons
and wretched complexion. For
all such, Electric Bitters work Won
ders. They regulate Stomach, Liver
and Kidneys, purify the blood; give
strong nerves, bright eyes, pure
breath, smooth, velvety skin, love-
ly complexion. Many charming
women owe their health and beau
ty to them. SOC at K. II. Trim

culated to outlast a siege of seven
years. The firing is the most math-
ematically perfect imaginable. The
surrounding waters are mapped out
into squares, upon which certain
guns are kept ready trained, so
that it is almost impossible to miss.
During practice targets are towed
across the bay, the object being to
hit the water q yard in advance of
them. Although the sentries have
now been reduced, few years ago
1853 were needed daily. But the
mere pressure of an electric button
by the officer of the guard would
cause a miniature earthquake on
the neutral ground.
