A MIDNIGHT ' BARK.'

One night recently, just as the members of a South Island chemist's household. had retired, someone—a visitorwas suddenly seized with a violent fit of coughing. It was a dry, ' nagging ' cough at first, that tickled the throat and irritated the chest, but it gradually grew worse, and by midnight had developed into a veritable 'bark.' The coughing was incessant, everyone was kept awake, and at length the chemist in dismay went downstairs to his shop and got a bottle of cough cure which he took up to the coughing visitor. The visitor took one dose. The coughing ceased immediately. In the morning the visitor asked the chemist What was that remarkable stuff you gave me for my cough last night ? It stopped my cough l ; ke magic!' That was Baxter's Lung Preserver, the best Cough Cure I have in the shop,' replied the chemist. ' It's a sure cure for all throat and lung affections, and is famous because it cures quickly. I always use it myself, and have never known it to fail.' smiled the visitor, 'l've read a lot about Baxter's—and now I know.'
