HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF * THE CHILD’S TRIBUTE. The Baxter ad. man was visiting some friends the other evening. The lady of the house was putting her youngest child to bed, and was rather amused when the youngster, aged three, pretended to cough, and said: “ Mummie, give me some ‘.Baxter’s,’ my cold is so had.” On inquiry it was found that the child had had a cold some few weeks previously, and he had evidently appreciated the taste of Baxter's Lung Preserver. “You know, it is rather curious,” remarked the hostess, “ but when I was a child my mother said I used to do exactly the same thing. We used to live in Christchurch, and I was rather subject to sore throats even as a tiny tot, and I used to ask my parents for ‘ Baxter’s.’ ” Is it any wonder that this lady and thousands of other New Zealanders pin thqir faith to Baxter’s Lung Preserver. It has been the sovereign cough and cold remedy in New Zealand homes for over sixty years. It is a rich, red, soothing compound that promptly allays irritation, cuts the phlegm, and brings speedy relief. In addition, it possesses unique tonic properties that help to build one up. You can obtain a generous-sized bottle of Baxter’s Lung Preserver from or store for half a crown.
“ I certainly envy Mrs Fatleigh when she laughs.” “Why?” “There seems so much of her that is having a good time.’!
