Twenty Cents.—1875, 40c.; 1876, 50c.; 1877, 1878, $3 each.

M. R. Gause.—The four coins are common, and worth face value only. You failed to give your address.

M. Hale.—The 1839 cent struck over 1836 is sold by dealers at $3. The regular 1839 has no premium. The other coins are sold at 10c. each.

Mrs. A. M. R.—I cannot give addresses of dealers in this column. Ordinary current stamps have little value. Ten million of the present 2c. red are used every day.

Corporal P. Conn.—Dealers ask from 15c. to 40c. according to condition.

A. L. Churchman.—Dealers ask 5c.

R. Hitchens.—Dealers do not pay premiums at present on any Columbians except the dollar values.

Z. C. Frick.—Dealers ask 5c. each for the coins mentioned.

Dubuque, Iowa.—(No name signed to inquiry).—The 1795 dollar, lettered edge, is worth $3.50. The other coins about twice face value. Confederate paper money, as a rule, has no value. U.S. fractional currency in good fresh condition is worth twice face. If dirty or crumpled it has no premium value.

J. Hall.—Yes. Stamps catalogued at $2 each, or over, are disposed of to best advantage by auction. Common stamps catalogued from 1c. to 50c. each, do not as a rule bring anything like their value at auction.

L. Richardson.—Dealers charge $50 for the 1852 dollar. If yours is in good condition, a dealer might buy it for $25 or $30. If the date is not clear, or the coin is badly worn, it is not worth so much.

Every lot of Ivory Soap is carefully analyzed, and comparisons are made with analyses of the popular castile and toilet soaps. Ivory Soap contains less of impurities, less of free alkali and more real soap than any of them; that is why it can be used without injury to the rose leaf skin of the baby, to the sheerest of linens or to the daintiest of laces.
