CHRISTMAS GIFTS FOR SOLDIERS. MESSRS. BYCROFT, LTD. Bycroft, Limited, announce that they are putting up in tins containing not more than 71b gross weight, speciallypicked, suitable lines of their fancy biscuits, hermetically sealed to ensure their keeping through the tropics. These biscuits can be obtained only through merchants, grocers, and storekeepers in the ordinary way, and the best method of sending them, to ensure their safe arrival, is to post them. A sample address is given as follows :—Via Australia, 12/1120, Private Thomas William Brown, Auckland Infantry Battalion, New Zealand Expeditionary Force. The following lines of biscuits are recommended as being suitable Bellamy, cream, crackers, rice combination, mixed cocoanut, super wine, Jamaica wafer, and assorted. It (requires no magic for mothers, wives, sisters, and sweethearts to realise the pleasure with which their soldier boys would receive a tin of these tasty biscuits. Even the appearance of the well-known tin and labels would be like a letter from home, and the tin -would take the place in the trenches that the old biscuit-barrel did at home. A wide range of biscuits is included in the assortment offered, any of which might be selected. It seems a long time to look forward to Christmas, but time flies and steamers do not. So it behoves all the relatives and friends of soldiers at the front to be up and doing now, in order that no soldier may be without his present of a tin of biscuits when the ship steams in, and if he knew that a well-loved one had chosen it he would appreciate it all the more. All merchants, grocers, and storekeepers stock Bycroft's biscuits. It is an easy matter, therefore, to ensure that no soldier goes without when the Christmas packages arrive at the camps and trenches. ADD WAI-RONGOA TO YOUR WHISKY AND IMPROVE IT.
