The recording of our own manifesta tions of national life, traditions physical aspects, naturally results it a freshness of treatment removed from the hackneyed and often lifeless effects produced by the mere acceptance of the old symbolic ideas. Especially is this evident in the work of Solon II. Borglum which created such a sensation in New York a couple of seasons ago and which wa commented on at length by this column at that time, three of whos groups, if they could be so designated, beii.g reproduced in this is sue of the Fine Arts Journal.

ly in the spring my wife and I were

taken with diarrhoea and so severe

were the pains that we called a phy

medicines failed to give any relief. A

friend who had a bottle of Chamber

lain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy on hand gave each of us a dose and

we at once felt the effects. I procured

a bottle and before using the entire

contents we were entirely cured. It is a wonderful remedy and should be found in every household. H. C.
