FIGURE IT OUT.
THE COST OF COUGH MIXTURES. How long does an eighteenpenny bottle of cough mixture last? A few closes, and the . bottle is empty. Then another, and still another, to be bought. Runs into money, doesn't it? Especially where a family is concerned. Now, try this recipe for making good cough mixture at home. It gives from ten to twelve shillings' worth for two shillings. It makes a pint —about eight eighteenpenny bottles—of warming, soothing, stimulating cough and cold remedy that is good for all members of the family. It does not contain any poison or harmful drug of any kind. In a jug mix some sugar, treacle, a large breakfast cupful of warm water and a bottle of Mean's Essence label. Place in big bottle and keep ready for taking whenever required. There is no trouble or bother of any kind. I-lean's Essence makes a pint of cough mixture better than you can buy ready prepared, and saves a lot of money. A few drops to a child or a spoonful to an adult gives instant relief. As a remedy for croup, whooping cough, and other stubborn, obstinate coughs, it stands a real champion. This plan of making a good cough mixture at home is now quite popular. The receipt is so good, and the moneysaving so big, that Hean's Essence is being used all over New Zealand. The mixture lasts a long time, and never tspoils. Ilean's Essence may now be obtained from most medicine dealers, 2/- a bottle. If yours does not yet stock it, he can easily obtain from his wholesaler for you, or post free 011 receipt of price from Hean, Chemist, Wanganui. -Wherever you buy, be sure you get Uean's Essencej no other will do. : —4.
