In New Zealand testimonials are usually considered to be indispensable to an applicant for a position, but this is not so in the United States, according to Mr G. >M. Keys, secretary to the Christchurch Boys' Employment Committee. Addressing a rally of employed and unemployed boys at the Young Men’s Christian Association’s building last week, Mr Keys said that it had been his experience in America that testimonials were never asked for, and he had learnt to put them in his bag and keep them there. “You simply appear before the, employer, and he asks you a few questions and sizes you up; that is aTI,” said Mr Keys. “If you are engaged and can handle the job, you stay.’’ FREE FROM ASTHMA. “I have been free from asthma and throat trouble, thanks to your Pulmonas. I would not be without a box.” Pulmonas are a unique prescription—powerful, antiseptic vapours reach every corner of the lungs and bronchial tubes. They disperse the phlegm, soothe and heal. Nothing so good. Pulmonas, 1/6 and 2/6 .per tin.-»-Advt.
