When : vbu f eel a cold ooming on, don't wait until it haa gripped you, but take Nazol at once. Mr. A. J>. Seabrook, of New Lynn, Auckland, has received cabled advice that his son; Lieutenant Jock Seabrook, R.F.C.,.has been gazetted flight-com-mander. Captain Seabrook i 3 at present in --charge. -of a flight m England, aftev having served eleven months war flying m Prance. Nazol relieves cold m the head and Va*al Catarrh.— 4. , A fad has sprung up m the West End m the last few days for leather cases made to hold the new ration card. They are made of crushed or plain morocco^ or of pigskin, m delicate shades of crimson, green, or grown, and cost from half a guinea upwards, ■ If you get a chill, take Nazol immediately. It will prevent sore throat or tightness of the chest.— 6, The acuteness of the petrol shortage was brought forcibly home to a business man on a tour of inspection m the early part of last week. The Levin paper states "that ho left Wellington by motor with just enough petrol to carry him to Levin, where he expected to get a supply, to take him on to Feilding. At Johnsonville he met another motorist, who advised him to go back, as petrol was a diminishing quantity as one went northwards. He accordingly enquired at every centpe through which he passed, but always got the one answer : No petrel except fo oblige regular oustomers. Jtf no. case QQuld the holders be induced to £art with a drop of the essential spirit. The motorist fared no better m Levin, and he. spent a couple of days hero, trying to beat up enough to take' him'to his destination. Ho had the mor- ' tification of seeing a procession of any- ! thing up to a hundred cars pass through Levin to the races at Palmerston, and is now more than ever convinced that everything possible is being done to wui the war m regard to the economy of; necessary commodities like petrol. Sub,- , sequent enquiries m I<evin by a Chron. icle representative revealed thftt the ( shortage was a very real one, though it ' was stated Wellington people seemed to be able to get as much as , they wanted. Some local garages wcro thinking of cutting out the car-hiring ' portion of their business for the present." " DON'T STOP!
