THE SHOPPING LIST MYSTERY. A shopping husband is always a pitiable object. This particular one had forgotten essential items so often that on this occasion lie was packed off to the store with a list hurriedly written out by his wife. He was able to decipher the items one by one until, he came to B.L.P. He couldn't solve the mystery, and was not game to return home for an elucidation to the problem. In desperation he showed the storekeeper the cryptic characters. He at once exclaimed, "Oh, that will be Baxter's Lung Preserver." "Of course it is," said the relieved husband.. "I now remember my wife saying whatever else you do don't forget the 'Baxter's.'" "Baxter's" is on practically every shopping list throughout New Zealand because this famous remedy has proved its worth a thousand times over. For coughs, colds, asthma, bronchitis, in fact, all chest and throat afflictions, "Baxter's" cannot be beaten. ._ Every chemist and store in New Zealand sells "Baxter's" in 4/6, 2/6 and 1/li sizes.—(Ad.)
