IT STARTED IN DUNEDIN I A SCOTCH TRAIT | } "About four years ago Messrs A. and W. Baxter, the well-known chemists or Christchurch, had a request' from a Dunedin mother that they should put up Baxter’s Lung Preserver in a largersized bottle. Although admitting that the half-crown bottle represented splon- 1 did value she stated that where there was a large family it was quickly used up and she wondered if a bigger bottle could not be sold. The economical family size of “ Baxter’s ” at 4s 6d was the result. i The first winter there was a surpris- ; ing demand for the new package from all over Otago and Southland. The following year supplies were sent out to other parts of the South Island, while two years ago isolated orders came trickling in from the Wellington and Taranaki districts. Now the family size is in general demand throughout the dominion, and the other day a heavy order for the 4s 6d» size came from an Auckland warehouse. In any home, and where there are , children'particularly, the 4s 6d bottle of! “Baxters” is recommended. It not I only ensures a plentiful supply against the winter ravages of coughs and colds, but it represents better value. Baxter’s Lung Preserver is unrivalled as a cough and cold medicine. It stops hacking coughs, eases sore throats, and soothes chest and bronchial complaints in a surprising manner. You can feel it doing good from, the first dose. “ Baxter s” ' is a rich, red, warming compound that is palatable to old and young alike. From North Cape to Bluff, and even on Stewart Island, it is the general favorite. Obtainable from i all chemists and stores at half a crown | for a generous-sized' bottle, or if you I would emulate the canny Dunedin folk ask for the economical family size at .4s 6d.—[Advt.]
