ON THE SCULLERY SHELF A Mystery Solved A lady called on a friend the other day and found her rather mystified about something. “What is the matter, dear?” she asked. “Wed,” said her friend, “I have just been puzzled,” and she led her into tlie sculleiw, where she pointed to a bottle reposing on the shelf. “I only bought that bottle of ‘Baxter’s’ yesterday, and just now when I went to take a dose for my cold I found about half the contents gone.. I know, my husband didn’t touch it, and I can’t make it out.” Shortly after, the little daughter of the house returned from school. Hearing a noise in the scullery, the mother went out, and there she saw the little one with a chair, reaching up for the “Baxter’s.” When taxed with having had it previously, she said, “Oh, yes, Mummy. I took it for my throat. I like ‘Baxter’s.’ ” Baxter’s Lung Preserver is a rich, red, warming, soothing compound that gets to work in a marvellous manner, and quickly relieves coughs, colds, sore throats, huskiness, and chest ailments. Tt also possesses unique tonic properties. The new screw cap on the bottles provides a perfect seal, and preserves the contents. You can obtain a generous-sized bottle of “Baxter’s” from any chemist or store for 2/6, or the more economical, family size 4/6. For bachelors there is the handy 1/6 size.
