VALUE QUEER RELICS HIGHLY
Large Sums Have Frequently Been
Paid for Articles That Many
Would Call Grewsome.

1t is not every man, not every hero
worshiper, who would esteem the
tooth of his hero of more value than
diamonds. There is a ring belonging
to an English nobleman, in which the
place of honor, formerly occupied by
a diamond, is given to a tooth that
once did duty in a human jaw.
This tooth cost no less than three
thousand six hundred and fifty dol
lars; but it was the tooth of Sir Isaac
Newton. A relic collector sold it at
auction in 1916, and the nobleman
who bought it gave it the place OF a
diamond in his favorite ring.
Another tooth, which so far excites
the generation Of hero worshipers as
to be able to hold a court of its own
and to draw from long distances a
small host of followers. is one that
was originally hidden behind the lips
of Victor Hugo. 1t Is kept at his
former residence in glass case bear

z completely broke down and was con-
fined to my bed. My stomach was in
such condition that could hardly take
sufficient nourishment to sustain life.
During this time u was drinking
coffee, didn't think could do without
It.
AFTER awhile came to the conclu.
sion that coffee was hurting me, and
decided to give 1t up and try Postum.
When it was made right-dark and
rich-I soon became very fond of it. .
in one week began TO feel better

sick headaches were less frequent, and
within five months looked and felt
like new being, headache spells en-
tirely gone.
