w note family. " A good cough remedy is one that can be depended upon to cure coughs. Not one that cures some parti- : cular cough, but coughs in general. It must be a cough remedy that can be relied upon for all the different coughs that are so prevalent in Australasia. While the causes of all coughs are 3 primarily the same, yet the condition of the patient is what makes the difference in the nature of the cough itself. Coughs of healthy persons are easier to cure than the coughs of invalids. The powerful' convulsive cough of a large man is harder to cure than the cough of a baby. If you get a remedy that will cure a large man's cough, and yet not be too powerful for the baby, you have a good cough remedy.

' AMBER TIPS passes the housewife's test, and it is the most popular brand in New Zealand, because in fragrance, flavour, quality, and economy it is pre-eminent The results of the investigations of / famous scientists and doctors of "The Lancet," England's leading Medical Journal, prove that fine teas like AMBER TIPS mean better health.' ' Moreover, this 1 investigation proved that fine teas like, AMBER TIPS are almost as cheap as inferior blends, since 280 cups can be obtained from 2j- per lb. tea as against only 224 cups from cheaper inferior teas "at 1/6 per lb. and less.

TOILET TALKS. m A DISTRESSING lack of hair will mar tho most beautiful face, and after .all, there is really no need to have poor or improveriahed hair if a few common-scnso rules are observed. First of ail, iiair tonics must, be freshly made in order to obtain the best results, end thousands of women, and men too, are now making up their own lotions with most satisfactory results. For this •purpose they obtain f rom the chemists one ounce of boraniwn and mix this with a-quarter of a pint of bay rum —quite a simple formula, and, ■ according to all accounts, remarkably effective. This simple home-madie lotion quickly removes all dandruff, and creates a growth of new, healthy hair, which will gladden the heart of any woman. One word in conclusion. Do not experimont with your hair, long suffering though it may bo. Nature wi'l surely revolt if you continue to subject tho hair and scalp to all kinds of fanciful treatments. Employ a tonic, by all means, if such is required, but having found a satisfactory one use no other. NOW about shampoos. Is it 'reasonable to expect that one particular make will suit everybody Certainly not. Some folks have dry and brittle hair, others have tresses which are excessively greasy. Each requires a different grade of shampoo, if one is to obtain the best results. The writer's notice was recently brought to a substance called etallax, which can be obtained from most chemists. It consists of ALWAYS GOOD! small granules, which, when mixed wHi a cup of hot water, make the most charming mirturb imaginable for shampooing iihe hair. According to the quantity used, so the strength is graduated to suit all conditions. There is one drawback, however, and that is stailax oan only be obtained k> -4I b tins, which cost about half-a-crown, but as this quantity is sufficient to make 25 to 30 shampoos, it is really very economical in the end. It leaves the hair a little too wavy and fluffy for some tastes, but this can always be avoided by rubbing a littler olive oil on the scalp» previous to the application. A FEW rsmarks on ■ faco creams may not be out of place, and at the risk of being put down aa a little oldfashioned, my advice on thia subject is to leave well alone. Do not clog tho pores with greasy ooncotions which not. only prevent the skin from performing its proper functions, but usually reeult in encouraging a growth of hair on tlbe face, and you know very well what that means— disfigurement for the resi of your natural days. If it is necessary to use an emollient at all, get meroolieed wax from your chemist and apply it in tho usual' way. This remarkable substance seems to absorb the worn and weather-beaten outer cuticle, and in a few days' time the new healthy skin underneath peeps forth in all its brilliance, and is, of course, quite free from imperfection or blemish; ALWAYS BEST!
