It is that so many products that are ex-

reason Is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real

Opera Singer Redeems Emblem Found
tn Window of New York

The sight of a Victory medal in the

moved Lucien Muratore, opera singer

that it will find its way to it's owner.
while strolling with my secretary
M. MuratOre wrote, II CHANGED to look
curiOusly in a window where many odd
articles were displayed. Among them
was this medal. Having served with
the French army in the great war,

this medal should come to such place
My friends informed me that probably
the veteran had been forced by cir
cumstances to part with it for a small
sum. 1t is certain that l should be
greatly distressed to be forced to give
up insignia of reward with which
France has honOred me. With this
feeling, 1 sent my secretary to recover
this medal for me in the hope that
should be able to return ii TO the gal
liant soldier who won it."
The medal bears clasps for st. Mi
