--- BAJUGO WARRIOR DOLL ---
My name is WARRI. For a long

time, I've been in deep slumber in a
cave without any power until the
spell was broken by some mysterious
spirit. Now, I am free and I can put
my mystic charms to good use. My
parents, BAJUGO WISHING DOLLS
attest to my abilities of giving justice,
protection, happiness and luck to any-
one who takes good card of me.
Remember that my sword symboliz-

es JUSTICE to the OPPRESSED; my
shield gives PROTECTION to the
WEAK; the color of shirt assures
HAPPINESS to the LONELY; and
LUCK comes when you hang me
where you can always see me.
Have faith in your wish and I shall

grant it.
P.S. Carry this tale in your wallet

whenever you seek my mystic powers!

TALE OF BAJUGO SEED

BAJUGO (BA-JOO-GO) is a kind of

seed of an oversized bean only found
in dense forest near a stream. It's
rare and blooms during October and
December. Added to its mysteries,
you'll always remember why people
seldom witness a seed fall. For as
the legend goes, they fall in mass at
night. Those in possession of them
seem to be on the better side of life.
