They Drink of Our Sweetness"


the countless beautiful summer wild
flowers which grow all about. In fact.
we are here from the spring until late
in the autumn, when the weather is
beginning To get cold"
Then said the purple clover, I'VE
are willing TO take our winters sleep.
Fer we are satisfied that we have seen
Il great deal of the year. rs we have
when we have seen the spring. sum
mer and autumn.
Its 50 beautiful to watch the leaves
turn into such gorgeous culors. They
are red, orange, golden and crimson.
and we can look up nj them and send
our sweetness through the air. so we
can let them know we think they are
lovely"
IT'S fine to belong to the clover
family" said the pink clover.
Yes, it most certainly is. said the
purple clover, ''for, in addition TO be-
ing lucky in the length Of time we
have unon this very nice old earth, we
do i grsat deal Of good, too.
81 know what you mean" said the
pink clover.
And all the other clover flowers
nodded their heads, waited sweet,
sweet breath of their fragrance, and
said:
I'VE know what the purple clover
means"
Yes" said the purple clover, you
all know what / mean, for you all
know that our friends, the humble
bees, scatter our seeds about and make
Us grow again. We make delicious
food for animals and they say that the
Rabbit family and even the giraffes
in the zoo absolutely adore clover"
That's what they say" agreed the
mink clover. EYES," the bumblebees
see to 1t that we keep on growing up
year after year, and Of course the
farmers plant clover fields, too. But
do believe that the bumblebees are as
fine workers as they can be-"
They are known all over as the
Busy Bees" said the purple clover.
"They do deserve their names. They
drink Of our sweetness, they also scat
ter our sweetness about.
1.-THE butterflies love us, too. They're
very fond Of u.s. And I've even known
of children who could tell you about
the sweetness of the clover"
1--WE known of them, too" said the
pink clover.
"a
Lets call ourselves the flowers OF
the season we're living in," suggested
the purple clover. For instance,
: when we're around in the spring, let's
call ourselves Spring Flowers. and
when summer comes. let US change our
name to Summer Flowers, and now
that the autumn has come and the cold
DAYS are fast coming nearer and near
or, let us call ourselves Autumn Flow
ers for Just a little while longer"
Its a fine idea" said the pink clio
yer, and all the other flowers nodded
/, their heads.
| 1--WE will still let people call us the
: Glover family whenever they see US,
as that is our right family name, but
! we ourselves will have some special
names, and just now we're the Au-
| tumn Flowers" the purple slower
| ended.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
4ess- q ;sIs!i liens Is they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarr-
hal deafness, and that is by a consti-
tutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness
is caused by an inf1amed condition OF
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inf1amed
you have a rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it sentire-
ly closed, Deafness is the result. I'm
less the Inflammation can be reduced
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever. Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts
thru the blood on the mucous sur
faces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine. Circulars free. All
Druggists, Use.
