TRUTH IN ADVERTISING. ‘DO YOU BELIEVE IN IT?” Two men were having a discussion the other day on the merits of advertising. “Take all these advertisements in the papers,” said one. “Do you really believe that people read them and act on them?-” “In the main I do,” replied the other. “Take the case of my wife for one instance. Several years ago she was particularly struck with an advertisement she had read on Baxter’s Lung Preserver. I had had a bad cough for some weeks so she determined to try a bottle. The result was so satisfactory that we have never been without a supply since.” Baxter’s Lung Preserver is a rich, red, warming soothing compound that does good from the first dose. It is invaluable for coughs, colds, sore throats, huskiness and all cheat and lung complaints. Also possesses unique tonic properties. Obtainable at all chemists and stores Generous-sized bottle at half-a-crown' economical family size at 4s 6d, and bachelor s bottle Is 6d. The new screw cap preserves the contents and makes a perfect seal.—Advt.
