DRIVER WHO READS "BAXTER'S" ADVERTISEMENTS.
Amusing Incident on Suburban Bus,
The writer of "Baxter's" advertise-1 ments had occasion to ride in a suburban bus the other day. On being questioned by the driver after a desultory sort of conversation he modestly admitted that he was an advertisement writer. "Well," said the driver, "I don't go much on ads. myself, but I reckon there's a bloke that's got the wood on you absolutely.'' On putting the question that seemed to be necessary, tho driver replied, "Oh, he's the fellow who writes ads. for Baxter's Lung Preserver." Baxter's man held his peace, and settled down to listen to a most interesting talk on the merits of Baiter's Lung Preserver.. It was just what he wanted. Before leaving the bus he revealed his identity to the astonished driver. "Of course," said that worthy man in conclusion, "it's not because of the ads. that I use 'Baxter's.' It's becauso of the stuff itself."
