Fear to Retouch Masters Work.

"After the war of 1870" writes a
correspondent of the Manchester
(England) Guardian, "Rodin was a
competitor among the sculptors who
desired to create the monument cele-
brating Frances defense Naturally,
his proposed design was rejected. To-
day however. the dead ROdin is rec
ognized as the greatest master of the
century, and the old design has. been
discovered. 1t is suggested that 1T
might well be called 'Verdun.' The
trouble is that his model is not three
feet in height. and although by the
COlas process one can faithfully en-
large small piece Of statuary, the
idea of doing so without Rodin to d.
rect the operation and to add the nee
esSary retouches before the work is
finally cast does not commend itself
to the majority of artists. Who will
make these necessary corrections? 1t
Is grave responsibility to NEEDLE
with the unfinished creation Of man
like Rodin. Some natural feeling has
been aroused. and although it is a
pity to neglect a design which so per-
fectly expresses the spirit of the he
roic defense, there would seem to he
grave artistic and sentimental objec-
tons to the course proposed"

SAFE, GENTLE REMEDY
CLEANSES YOUR KIDNEYS

For centuries GOLD MEDAL HARLEM
Oil has been a standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and blad-

your blood. If the poisons which enter
your system through the blood and stom-

WEAKNESS, sleeplessness, nervousness,
dependency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins and lower abdo-
men, gall stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
matism, sciatica and lumbago, all warn you
to look after your kidneys and bladder.
All these indicate some weakness of the
