The following sensational and remarkable story has come to light regarding the pioneer hardships of our early history. Two well-known New Zealanders, Mr Moreton and Mr Hall, solicitor, of Invercargill, whilst on a holiday trip exploring the majestic beauties of our far-famed cold lakes-, and mountainous scenery at the head of Lake Wakatipu, successfully negotiated tho 4300 ft. of height of the famous Lake Harris Saddle. It was in the vicinity of the saddle that they came across the remains of an- old digger's camp, and being similarly constituted to otheiv mortals they naturally fossicked for curios. It must be remembered that this old digger's camp was 4300 ft. above sea level, surrounded by mountainous bush country, more than 50 miles from the nearest store, to make the following extraordinary find the more remarkable when one considers that every article of diet, clothing, utensils, etc., had to be carried the above heiglrfc and distance witli »00OmpanVing hardships. These gentlemen fossicked in this" old camp, and, remarkable as it may seem, they relate that they discovered an empty bottle of , Baxter's Lung Preserver — this was in the year 1884-5. This old digger most probably staked his life in this lonely spot to the merits of this famous cur© for coughs and colds and other serious chest complaints. Baxter's Lung Preserver was not only famous in 1884 for curing coitghs and colds quickly, but to-day is still recognised as the one remedy that gives a marked and rapid cure.
