His companion read the following local in that morning’s Christchurch Press: “A Wanganui lady had an embarrassing experience whilst on a visit to Wellington last week. A guardian of the law who was patrolling an important business thoroughfare saw a young lady drinking from a bottle which was being held for her by her male companion. The policeman tapped the young fellow on the shoulder and informed him that ‘that sort of thing wasn’t done here.’ He grasped the bottle, sniffed, but was doomed to •disappointment. The bottle contained a popular brand of cough mixture! The bottle was handed back without a word, and the young man resumed his administration of the medicine to liis fair companion.” “I’ll bet it was Baxter’s Lung Preserver,” said the second man. “You know, it’s really marvellous how that cough and cold mixture has caught on. I have used it for years myself, and find it invaluable. Nowadays everyone seems to take it.” Besides being a wonderful cough and cold remedy, Baxter’s Lung Preserver possesses unique tonic properties that help to build you up, to resist future attacks. You can get a generous-sized bottle from any chemist or store for 2/C.
