^ GOLD
♦ /
There’s fairy gold and pirate gold,/
And gold of willow trees;
7.
There’s gold upon a field of wheat
5Vhen August .wind goes over.
And there’s the gold in tiny plumes
’ Of belted honeybees,
, Droning their song of deep content
Above the rosy clover.
Tht^re’s gold of morning, sun at noon,
And gold of sunset hills,
- Gold, of the bright forsythia
And gold of daffodils.
There's crown gold and miser's gold,
p— t Gold of a baby’s hair;
There Were the trees Aladdin found
And the Nibelungen hoard.
- And if you’ll go to the rainbow’s end
A pot of gold is there,
And undei 1 the wind white waves of
the lake,
The hilt'of Arthur’s sword.
There’s gold you’ll find on maples when
October nights are crisp,
Or running along the edge of the
swa^ap
You’ll see the will-o-the-wisp;
r
There’s gold the' maiden spun from
straw,
The child that Midas kissed,
The treasure of the forty thieves
That Ali Baba found.
And goldfinches an
, D.reStm of the a^cl
And gold of dandelion coins
All scattered oft. the ground.
,
ThereVcrocus "gold and margiold;
And wh£n the sirtniper’s done,
There always will' be willow trees
Shining in the sun.

BACK HURT BAD
Lady Had Severe Paiiu ip *
Back and Got Very Weak.
. “I think very highly of Cardui
for 1 have had great benefit from its
use,’* says Mrs. Cora Nicholson, of
Ware Shoals, S. C.
“1 was in bed quite a while. It
looked like my strength would not
come back, and 1 suffered with
severe pains in my back whenever
1 would try to get up. Sometimes
1 would scream out, my back hurt
me so bad.
“My husband got me some
Cardui and I took two bottles/
Very shortly after I began to take
it I could notice 1 felt better. , I be
gan to get stronger. My appefiTe
was improving and 1 could see that
! . I was much tretter.
“After I had finished the second
j§ bottle I was able to be up and do all
■ my own housework, so of course
■ I think Cardui is fine. It is-the
