THE KOLLYFORD RIVER VALLEY AN EARLY DISCOVERY In 1884. Mr S. H. Moreton, the explorer and artist, accompanied by "r W. Y: Hall, an Invercargill solicitor, went on a sketching tour in the now famous Hollyford River Valley. After three days’ tramp from the head of Lake Wakatipu they reached the Lake Harris Saddle at over 4,000 ‘feet. In the bush just below the pass, they found the remains of an old camp. Fossicking round for some means of identifying their predecessor, the only familiar object they saw was an empty Baxter’s Lung Preserver bottle. Considering that every pound of provisions had to bo “ swagged ” by this old-time camper, obviously he had no doubt as to the value of “Baxter’s” to safeguard him from the corstant changes in temperature of those high altitudes. ' . From New Zealand’s earliest pioneering days “ Baxter’s ” ‘ has been the recognised standby for coughs, colds, and similar ailments. To-day “ Baxter’s ” is still New Zealand’s first line of defence against colds, coughs, sore throats. Sold by chemists and stores everywhere. 1/6, 2/6, 4/6. —[Advt.]
