Most oif the George Reid stories are known, but one was heard in Sydney this week that may be worth repeating, says an Australian writer. Being invited to a banquet for commercial travellers in London, the guest arrived without a dress suit, his leather cp.se having gone astray in transit from the counties. Apologising for the sin of omission, the chubby devotee of chocolates and eyeglasses explained that he would certainly have been able to appear hi one were it not for the fact that in his tour o" the ole do’ shops in London that afternoon he had been informed that there was no .chance of getting a second-hand dress suit for the evening, as the commercial travellers were holding a banquet. Never Neglect a ColdA cold should never be treated lightly, as it is always more or less serious. Many people make the mistake of neglecting a cold until some serious lung trouble results. If every cold received the attention it should have the danger of this would be avoided. Every cold can be relieved by the use of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. A bottle or two of this remedy taken when the cold is first contracted will promptly relieve it, and noc only save doctors’ bills but much suffering and annoyance later on. Sold by all chemists and storekeepers.
