They won't give you the ßO If you get the brush off from beauties maybe it's because unknowingly you offend with body odour. It's no coincidence that "B.O." stands for brush-off as well as body odour —the two things go together. But Lifebuoy in your daily shower will keep you fresh. Lifebuoy has a special health element which makes it extra mild as well. Then watch the girls come flocking round! You're ROMEO after all! MADE BY LEVER BROTHERS (N.Z.) LIMITED.

Purely as a matter of courtesy, and as a \ A publisher, 1 sent free of charge and with my {QP V compliments a copy of _ /^\n,. my book, "THE AWAKENING," to the different Newspapers and Journals through' M) out New Zealand. So Wl ffiKy/ far, it appears that only a few have had the necessary space to review the book. However, hereunder I give y° u Bn excerpt from the lending article appearing in the "North Wairarapa Herald of November 3rd:— "THE AWAKENING" "An American ex-agricultural instructor. Edward H. Faulkner, in July of last year published 'Plowman's Folly, and the startling nature of the views expressed by Mr Faulkner evinced so much > nte ''* est that up to March of this year eight editions had gone to the bookstalls. Mr Fnulkner'B views have been held for some time by Mr Alister Bevin, an agricultural implement manufacturer, of Auckland, who has made en intelligent study or agricultural science and practice over many years. Mr. Bevin has also written n book, entitled 'The Awakening, and although he says that he is concerned with the practical side of farming rather than with tho scientific aspect, he has displayed a sound knowledge of the theory of his subject. The Auckland writer Is most convincing in his advocacy of rational surface or top-soil cultivation, and although he modestly disclaim;* ability to writo well, he can hold the attention and arouse tho interest with his commonsense arguments. We b = liev <> that every primary producer In the North Wairarapa district, and right throughout the Dominion, should read, discuss and digest 'The Awakening.' Many will assert thnt as a manufacturer of harrows the author has an axe to grind. We are convinced that he is more sincere in his advocacy." Actually, it now appears that "THE AWAKENING" ia a darn good book. I have had letters from all over the country from those who have read It. One chappie says: "I think It's worth double the price." If you know the farmers as well as I do, you'll agree that this Is certainly "some" testimonial. Another says: "I am in complete agreement." . . . Another writes: "Your book has certainly been an 'Awakening' for me." A Director of one of the biggest firms in New_ Zealand doing business with farmers, gardeners, etc., said: "Whether you are aware of it or not, 1 don't know, but nevertheless your book is going to have a great bearing on the future of agriculture in New Zealand." Yet another writes: "I think that any person working on the land would be well advised to purchase a copy ol your book." Well, I've got scores more of similar opinions, so 1 conclude ' THE AWAKENING" must be all right certainly worth the 2/6 Postal Note (or Stamps) you will send with the attached Coupon and many thanks I "ALBEE" IS A DARN NUISANCE! I had an idea that "ALBEE" would be a good seller. Well, "good" has proved to be 0 most inadequate term As far as sales are concerned, he's a "whopperl" "ALBEE." as you know, is » comblnatiur agricultural or gardening tool. The y hinged blade can be altered to any f desired angle to convert him into a spade, a push-hoe, a shovel, a drain scoop, a chopping and drag-hoe, a Pal grubber, a moulding-hoe, etc. Here RO is an illustration of the patented, adjustable, positively locking hinga. 38 This is. if anything, the strongest part of a very strong implement. ■' "ALBEE," because ne is perfectly balanced and light to handle, makes an ideal gardening tool for a lady. "ALBEE" IS THE SOLUTION OF YOUR XMAS PRESENT PROBLEM! He is worth manv times his price of 25/-, He will make a useful, lasting, and much appreciated gift. .• The attached coupon is very convenient for ordering. THIS CHAP'S SURE GOT SOMETHING! "The work of man is to fight against the difficulties which his own proper activities up, and to conquer them." , —Burggraeve. Who Mr Burggraeve is, or was. I don't know, but he's certainly said a mouthful! My own proper activities have certainly stirred up difficulties. Sales of "BEVIN" Harrows. Electrofencers and "ALBEES" have, and are. exceeding my most sanguine expectations—certainly they are a darned sight more than the various manufacturers, on whom 1 depend, anticipated. However, I 1 know they are all doing their best ... Harrow and Electrofencer orders, although delayed, aro being filled all the time. So great has been , the business for ''ALBEES" that the manufacturers were obliged to greatly increase their initial run. Unfortunately, the greatly augmented quantities required have retarded the initial deliveries. However, they assure me now of adequate supplies to fill all orders on hand and yours also, by the middle of December. You will agree that Burggraeve doesn't condemn one In my position, so can 1 ask those thousands who have already ordered "ALBEE to please bear with me a little longer?
