ON THE ROAD TO SKIPPERS. The Coachman* Message. Many and varied are the commissions that are entrusted to the coach drivers on the road to Skippers. Ml visitors to Queenstown who have done this wondertrip along the Shotover, know how sparsely populated the district is, and how dependent the few inhabitants are on the good service of the kindly coach drivers. The lure of gold in the old days was responsible for the construction of this wonderful road and the same lure to-day still brings its quota of adventurous spirits to this famous field. But even the gold fever does not keep off the insidious attacks of cough? and colds. Quite a frequent message to the coacn driver is to bring out a bottle of Baxter's Lung Preserver frou Queenstown. Years ago this famous old remedy was the standby of the gold miner, and to-day "Baxter's" is still regarded as the unfailing remedy for sore throats, influenza, bronchitis, and chest complaints. Inflamed throats yield to its . arming and soothing properties, while ita tonic attributes help to build up the constitution. Baxter's Lung Preserver can be bought at all chemists and stores. A generous-sired bottle for 2/6, or better still get the family size for 4/B.—(Ad.) Just received, ex-s.s. Arawa, shipment of woollen dress fabrics in novelty weaves, double width, latest colourings. Remarkable value at 5/11 and 7/11 per yard. Early inspection advised. —Smith and Caughey, Ltd.,.dress specialists* (Ad)
