useful. Gold may be worth more than
you are, but what of it? The people
who bought you are willing to change
their gold for you, so that really puts
you ahead. AS for myself | wouldn't

Righthandiron. And now let's see If
we can move the cloud"
! The four little creatures set out at
once to push the cloud nearer to the
earth so that Tom could see the lat

with his exertion. "1Nhere is only one

And so Tom was left sitting on big

way alone will make a first-elass start
for the beginner. Indeed, some of the
most valuable United States stamps
bringing hundreds and even thousands
Of dollars, have turned up in just this
way.
Those having friends or relations
abroad have splendid opportunities for
getting the current issues of foreign
countries. Many desirable specimens
are coming into the United States
every day, and one of the pleasures
of collecting is in ferreting out the
sources fromf which the coveted treas
ures may be obtained.
A great mistake made by beginners
when looking over old letters for
stamps, is in taking them off of the
envelopes The value of many rare
specimens has been reduced one-half
in this way. In ordinary stamps ii is
all right for there are a sufficient
number on the market to make them
low in price, but with scarce varieties,
particularly the old local stamps, their
value is enhanced fully so per cent.
by allowing them to remain on the
original envelope. 1t is good plan
to show all stamps of this kind to
an older collector, then you will be on
the safe side.
If the beginner intends making a
purchase now and then, 1t is best for
him to buy stamps in packets, which
are sold by all dealers at from 10 cents
to 81 each. They are much cheaper
bought in this way, and the enthusi-
asst will be enabled to improve his col
lection greatly at merely a nominal
cost.
1t must be remembered that among
the worlds postal issues there are
nearly 5000 varieties having very little
value These can be had at few
cents per hundred. Packets are pre-
pared containing every class or
stamps, excepting, Of course, those
which are very rare. Most dealers is
sue price lists describing these packets
and one may select those he prefers.

He is" said the L.efthandiron. ''Ten-
acre lots of fun. You'll meet him soon
enough because we shall join him
shortly. We never go off on any of our
trips without him. He is a great help
sometimes when we get into trouble
just because he has so many sides. If
we fall into a pit through some mis-
step the Poker comes along and prizes
us out of it. If we fall into the hands
of some horrible creature that wants
to hurt US, the Poker talks to that
creature as stupid as he knows how,
which makes the other so drowsy that
he can't possibly keep awake, and then,
of course, we escape"
There he is now" cried the Right
handiron, putting his right forepaw
up to his ear and listening attentively
l can hear him singing, can't you?"
The Lefthandiron stopped short and
Tom strained his ears to. hear the
Poker's song. For a moment he could
hear nothing, but then a slight buzz
ing sound like the hum of a bee, came.
to his ears and in another minute he
could distinguish the words of the
song. 1t was a song that the Poker
who was singing was one of those
favored beings who are satisfied with
what the world has given them-as
you will see for yourself when you hear
it, These are the words as they came
to Toms ears, sung to a soft little
air which the Poker made up as he
went along, thereby showing that he
was a musician as well as a Poker.
o, l am a Poker bold and free,
And / poke the livelong day,
I love the land and l hate the sea,

FAMILY doctor who has attended
N father and mother in sickness,
watched over the children as babies
and given them advice as they grew up to
maidenhood and manhood has a very close
relation to the family. When he comes in
half the suffering seems over half the dan
ger past. He comes at all hours of the
night and day and after years of such
service confidence in HIM is almost un-
bounded. But in time the mother begins
to all and the daughters growing up de-
velop the troubles and weaknesses of wom-
anhood. Here the physician very often
makes his mistake. The mother may be
going through the change of life, but the
physician calls it a general running down
of the system or thinning blood. He fire.
quently treats bearing-down pains as kid
ney trouble and says deranged menses are
mere temporary troubles that will wear off.
In treating every case from whooping
cough to diphthera and typhoid fever the
average physician has no time to specialize
any one class of diseases-he has no oppor-
tunity to make study Of the particular
maladies of women. And he has another
disadvantage in that thousands of modest
women will not tell the details of this kind
of sickness to adoctor. But Wine of Cardui
is a family physician, a specialist of female
diseases that has never been discredited as
regulator of menstrual disorders. 1t sell
dom fails to effect perfect cure and when
cases are absolutely incurable, it never fails
to benefit the patient.
Mrs. Theodore Fuller, of Neenah, Wis,
is one of the thousands of women who have
cause to praise Wine of Cardui. She is one
of the prominent women of her town and
her letter cannot fail to attract the atten-
tion of thousands of sufferers AS Presi-
The Savannah morning news., 1902-02-23

Wine of Cardui. This is because Wine OF
Cardu lifts woman from the despair of
life shattered by suffering. 1t gives them
health for their sickness, strength for their
weakness, ambition for their despondency,
buoyancy for their pain. No suffering
woman Of serious Thought, with an active
interest in her own welfare, will neglect to
take this great remedy.
Mrs Fuller physician failed, but Wine
of Cardui in three weeks cured her mem
strna disorders and womb trouble which
we're causing stomach trouble. The terri
BILE flooding was wasting her blood and
strength Stomach trouble, nervous and
bilious attacks were making life torture.
What better offer of health can any woman
ask than this? Lay hold of it today by

from your druggist and begin the treat
ment today.
