HOLIDAYING IN AKAROA

WHAT A VISITOR FOUND. Recently a Wellington business man and bis wife spent a holiday at Akaroa, the original French Settlement on Ranks Peninsula, which is of such historical interest to New Zealanders. ’Twns hero in 1840 that Captain Stanley hoisted the British flag a few days before the arrival of the French fleet, It was some years since tho man had been in Akaroa before, and when he arrived in the- town bo bad a sore throat. Chatting to bis wife the next morning, lie remarked that there were very few changes, and that the township looked much tho same as it did when he was there before. “And do you know,” remarked tho gentleman. “ I had a sore throat when I was hero on tho last occasion. I remember buying a bottle of Baxter’s Lung Preserver at the chemist’s shop over the road, and I believe I rill get another now,” Ho did so, and tho next morning his throat was very much better. Baxter’s Lung Preserver is the favourite cough and cold remedy. It eases sore throats and relieves bronchial complaints in a wonderful way. It is a rich, red, warming, soothing compound that docs you good from tho first dose. There is nothing like “ Baxter’s ” to shift a cough or cold. Besides being a splendid specific for these complaints “Baxter’s” possesses unique tonic properties that help to build up the system to resist further attacks. You can get a generous-sized bottle of “ Baxter’s” from any chemist or store for 2s 6d, or if you are economically minded you will obtain the 4s 6d size. For the convenience of bachelors there is also a small bottle at cigbteenpence.—[Advt.]
