A very interesting episode is related of a Maori who went into a chemist’s ■ shop and asked for some acid to “fix” his waliine. “What!” gasped the young chemist. “That’s murder, man.” "No, no,” said the Maori. “No kill her, just ‘fix’ her. She got the bad cough I had last week. I buy the acid here and it fix me. So I want more for her. ’ ’ The chemist recalled the incident, and burst out laughing. “It’s not acid you want, Helce, it’s ‘Honey Acid‘.” “Yes, yes, him the fella! Honey Add fix my bad cough—it go like the seared Tabbit; never came back cither.” “But, Heke,” said the chemist, “isn’t there some left from the other bottle for your wife?” “Oh no. All gone! My young Heke, he get the bottle. He like it, so he drink the lot. I kick him hard, too!” Honey . Acid is popular everywhere—with everyone—it cuts the phlegm and smashes up a cold overnight.
