HALE AND HEARTY AT 80.
Bowls and "Baxter's" the Secret.
A well-known retired Wellington business man celebrated his eightieth birthday recently. Various friends who called to congratulate him on the event remarked that he really looked;younger than he did when he retired some years back. "What is 1 the secret?" asked one of the visitors. "Bowls and 'Baxter's'," replied the octogenarian. "I was persuaded to take up bowls, and as the ground is not far from my house I. spend a fair amount of time down there. That has given me an interest in life, and by brushing elbows with my fellow mortals I seldom have any time on my hands nowadays. Years ago, also, I used to suffer from regular bouts of bronchitis, but since I have got on to Baxter's Lung Preserver I have never had any trouble in that relation. I always keep a stock of 'Baxter's' handy, and at the first sign of any throat or chest ailment I get on to the old specific." This, is another testimonial for "Baxter's" Avhich has been New Zealand's •favourite cough and cold remedy for very many years. It is a rich, red, warming, soothing compound that is invaluable for coughs, cdlds, sore throats, huskiness, and all chest troubles. Obtainable at all chemists and stores; generous-sized bottle at 2/6, family size at 4/6, and bachelor's bottle 1/6. The new screw cap preserves the contents, —(Ad.) -
