MISSING A GOOD JOKE. Many a good joke has failed to “go over” at the Talkies —because of someone coughing. Coughing at the theatre is like static on a radio, except that it can be cured. A dose or two of “Baxter’s” will end a cough by removing the cause of imitation in the throat or chest, “Baxter’s” has fixed a million coughs and colds over sixty years. It will fix yours. Get a bottle to-day. Is 6d, ' and 4s 6d at all chemists and stores.

A smartly attired girl, after finishing lunch at a fashionable 'Sydne\ restaurant, without rising fiom hei table lit a cigarette. Seated opposite was an elderly grey-haired lady whe looked quite shocked. Just then the girl’s escort was called to ‘the phone, and the old lady addressing the young one, said: “My dear,' what would your Mother say if she could see you smok ingV” The girl laughed. “Oh,” she replied, “Mother wouldn’t mind. Smokes any amount herself.’’ The ole lady sighed. Perhaps she was thinking of the unbridgable gap 'twixt Victorian days and 1931. But ready smoking is quite .alright for either sex, provided the tobacco is above reproach. Alas! it so often isn't. Take thAmer'.can tobaccos and what do you find? Practically all of them overloaded with nicotine. Bad for, the health? Of course! Destructive. Now there’s hardly any nicotine in our N.Z.
