HAVE YOU BOUGHT IT YET?
Is a' question which appeals to almost overy phase of life; : The child who.is promised a gift often asks the parent: Have you bought it yet? and you can notice the" intense look of disappointment upon its face when you reply that you have not. Then the young lady, when her young admirer has been brave enough to ask the long-waited-for question, and she has replied favourably, naturally asks him: Have you bought it yet? meaning, of course, has he the right size of ring, and if he has not done so, then 6he too is disappointed. Then comes tho marriage day, when, in,duo course, the lucky, or unlucky, pair stand before the officiating minister: Everything is. getting on famously until the time cornea to produce the ring. The bridegroom fumbles in his pocket. He cannot find it. Lost surely. Then in hard, cold words comes the inquiry from his annoyed intended mother-in-law: Have you bought it yet? And so on through hfo various incidents happen, and the inquiry is often made; Have you bought it yet? It so happens that it is part of human naturo to keep on putting off things, and that is the reason the inquiry is so often made. Now, delay in all things is dangerous, and that is tho reason why you should buy Red Cross Ointment today and not leave procuring it till tomorrow. An accident might happen tonight, when the shops are closed. If you have it handy in the house it will be the means of saving immense suffering. Many a person has had cause to praise tho healing properties of tho Mighty Healer, as Red Cross Ointment has been aptly, called. Get a pot to-day.- As your grocer and chemist stocks Red Cross all the time, and tho price is only one shilling and sixpence, there is no reason why the° question should be asked you again: i Havo you bought it yet?
