SUMMER SHOW. Matters in connection with the forthsoming Summer Show are well in hand. All the judges nominated have accepted with the exception of one section, and it s anticipated that this will be completed n a few days.

Although warned in advance concerning the vagaries of Dunedin's weather, he came totally unprepared, and, consequently, contracted a severe chill which rendered him almost speechless. Fortunately for him his friend was a strong advocate of Baxter’s Lung Preserver, and immediately recommended this wellknown remedy to the ailing Australian. This advice was followed, a bottle of “Baxter's” was promptly procured from Marshall’s Pharmacy, and next day the visitor was a new man._ This example is only one of thousands in which Baxter's Lung Preserver has rendered yeoman service to bronchial sufferers. As a cough and cold remedy it is unsurpassed, giving gratifying relief in even the most chronic oases. “Baxter’s” is a friend to old and . young alike. It is a rich-tasting specific, warming and penetrating, and every dose does good. It also possesses remarkable tonic properties which render it most efficacious in rebuilding and revitalising run-down constitutions. A generous-sized bottle costs 2s 6d at chemists and stores. Family size 4s 6d.—Advt. Whilst walking on the parapet of a railway bridge at Colchester, an eight-year-old girl fell a distance of over 30ft on to the line. That her clothing acted as a parachute is the only reasonable explanation of the fact that, when picked nP, she was found to have received only cuts on the hands and head, and contusions on the body. She was conveyed to hospital by a -passing motorists, and was expected to recover.
