OLD COLD-FIGHTING CUSTOMS Many queer old customs aro still dying hard in parts of tlio North of England. For instance ;yiv child who contracted whooping-cough was carried willy-nilly to the nearest tar-boiler and hold ruthlessly iu the fumes. Or it might ho taken to tho top of a- neighbouring hill in tho hope that tho troublo might bo " blown away " by a friendly gale. Tho Now Zealand mother does not have to go far to find a much better and decidedly more pleasant treatment. Wisely, she keeps a bottle of Baxter's Tiling Preserver in her home. At tho first symptom of a cold, mother immediately gives the child a dose of " Baxter's." This rich, red, warming, soothing compound relieves inflammation and congestion, banishes feverishness, and assists normal breathing. Tho excellent tonic properties of "Baxter's" help build up strength and resistanco against attacks. "Baxter's," 100, has a palatable flavour that all little folk enjoy. Order " Baxter's " with your groceries or send to-day to tho nearest chemist or store. Three sizes, Is 6d, 2s 6d, and the big 4s 6d family bottle.—Advt,
