BAIL WAY CONVERSATION. Two life-long-friends were sitting in a. railway carriage talking as they travelled. One; a-tailor by trade, had for many months previously suffered from a relaxed throat, caused by constant smoking; In addition, his breathing tubes were affected, and much blocked by phlegm each' morning on waking. PbrtuDately, lie found a cure. His .friend', a "watchmaker, was less fortunate. , Evm then. he was more or tess choked -by cold and phlegm* His vc®?e was thick and stuffy—the nasal passages "were too filled to admit cigar breathing. , v Said the tailor, "See, old chapj you get a bottle of the stuff that fixed me up. It's great." "What is itf" . • '.' Well, it is simply Hean's Essence. I'm a single man, as you know, but I took a .bottle home, and my landlady broke it down with water and sweetening, and then put it into two good-sized bottles for me. One I left in my room, the other I took to the shop and put it in my seat. When I first got it my throat and tubes and nose were all pretty bad, and had been so for a long time; but having a supply both at home and at work, I was able to take a dose as often as I wanted to. I tell you, Frank Hean's ' Essence is great. Each time I quietly sipped a' dose, or gargled my throat with it, I got a sense of warmth, ahd comforting relief that was just ali right;. , , "Anyway, the mixture gave me as much ease and proved such a comfort that I am confident you will be as well satisfied with it as I was. My old doc-; tor used to say that I had catarrh of the nose and, throat,, but whether I had or' not, there is no trace of it now. Hean's Essence certainly fixed me up. Besides, old chap, look at its wonderful cheapness, A bottle of ordinary cough mixture at eighteenpence a time used to last me no time. A bottle of Hean's Essence broken down with water and sweetening makes qbout eight of these blessed eighteenpenny bottles. Look at the saving! Why, man, it is simply wonderful, and gives you a supply of couo-h mixture for only 2/- that is worth having. Take my tip, and try it." The above is a true report of a conversation that actually occurred recentlv in a railway carriage. The tailor's experience is: duplicated in hundreds and thousands of cases of coughs, colds, and catarrh all over . Australasia.. Hean VEssence is sold by most chemists and stores, in bottles, 2/- each, or promptly mailed, post free, on receipt of price, from Gr. W. Hean, Family Chemist, Avenue, Wanganui.. Just be sure you do as the tailor did —get H-E-A-N'S, 35
