“DIPPING” AN AMERICAN NEW ZEALANDER TO THE RESCUE A much travelled Wellington lady tells of an experience that will interest all New Zealanders: — . “I thought perhaps you might like t hear of an experience I had when crossing from New Zealand to San Francisco some little time ago. An elderly passenger—an American—after being ‘dipped’ crossing the Line, developed a heavy cold. I missed him and enquired the cause, and was told he was very bad. I had the usual Baxters in my luggage and took it to him, and the first dose had an effect. He was loud in his praise of my ‘cure’ and asked me if he could get it in America. Anyway he would not part with the bottle, and I had to go to England without it. I thought perhaps this incident would interest you.” The letter, of course, was addressed to Messrs Baxters Ltd., proprietors of New Zealand’s most famous remedy, Baxters Lung Preserver. The unique properties of “Baxters” never fail to impress people from overseas who make the acquaintance of this wonderful specific. “Baxters” has no equal as a remedy for coughs, colds, sore throats, bronchitis and most chest afflictions. “Baxters” is safe for all ages and is extremely palatable, and in addition has a valuable tonic action. All chemists and stores sell “Baxters” at 1/6, 2/6 and 4/6 for the extra large sized family bottle. —1
