"WHEN FATHER GETS A COLD HE THINKS HE IS GOING TO DIE," Tljis amusing anecdote is no fish story. It actually happened. A man had been deep-sea fishing off Whangaroa, and on coining ashore called at an accommodation house and sought the proprietor. One of the daughters of the household said. "You'll find dad in the living room." The visitor entered that room, which was vacant, but noticed a of Baxter's Lung Preserver on the mantelpiece. He passed through to the bedroom, but again no proprietor, but another bottle of "Baxter's" was in evidence. Returning to the daughter, he said, "1 can't find your father anywhere, but I found two bottles of 'Baxter's.' She replied, "When father gets a cold he thinks he is going to die, so ho keeps a bottle of 'Baxter's' in pretty well every room." Poor father. However, whether father gets much sympathy when suffering from cold is not so important as to whether he gets some "Baxter's." One dose of "Baxter's" does more good than a ton of sympathy. "Baxter's" is the finest cough remedy, as proved by its marvellous popularity maintained for mantf generations. "Baxter's" has many unique qualities, including ability to shift a firmly looted chest cold and for preventing a cold developing on the chest. It is. of course, remarkable for its tonic value. Easily the best seller at all chemists and stores, in 1/0, 2/(i and extra large 4/0 sizes. Always, take care, always take "Baxter's."—(Ad.) "Schoolwear bargain week" now proceeding at Ashley's A.B.C.
