Persistent Coughing Quickly Stopped by Tonking's Emulsion It is well known that continued coughing is harmful to the tender tissues of the throat and lung's. It brings on inflamation and neglect to heal this at the beginninginvites a life-long illness. Tonking's Linseed Emulsion loosens a cough at once and makes it easy to raise the phlegm that may have accumulated, and the inflammation then quickly disappears. Mrs. A. J. Fox, Otago, writes:—"My mother is a strong believer in Linseed in whatever form it may bo used. She advised mo to give Tonking's Linseed Emulsion a trial. My little daughter, aged 4 years, had a terrible oold, but before she had halt finished the bottle, it had completely left her." is
Costs More Information of Vital Inttrest to Every Woman. The factors responsible for the enormous rise in the wholesale price of tea—increasing its average cost to the tea merchant by no less than 2kl'. to 3d. a lb. since the war started—have already been dealt with in earlier articles of this series. The reasons why "Amber Tips" Tea has been forced to increase its prices by 2d. per lb. have also been fully detailed. In considering the matter, it is well to remember that during the last nine years there has been absolutely no other increase in price in " Amber Tips," although to-day the cost of labour and packing alone has more than doubled. -The cost of labels, cartons, and packages has also increased year by year—while tea was rising steadily in price even before the war started. Tea experts have always been surprised at the remarkable value, wonderful quality and purity given in "Amber Tips " at so low a price. No other brand has been able to offer such good value and hence the sale of "Amber Tips" has increased year after year, until to-day it is the most popular brand from the North Cape to the Bluff, selling millions of packets throughout the Dominion.
But you will readily, sec that the article giving the best value is the one most affected by the heavy increase in price of raw' material. Not so with an inferior tea sold at the same price, because its margin of profit —the difference between cost and selling price—is much greater. The average increase of 2id. to 3d. per lb. in the price of tea faces the tea merchant with but two alternatives —he must either increase his prices or reduce his quality—unless he is to face heavy loss. Either course is reasonable, but the proprietors of "Amber Tips" have chosen the former one rather than the latter. \ But think the matter out—if another brand does not raise its prices and still claims to give the same value-surely it mean* that the price charged before the war was excessive—more than should be asked if good value for the money was given—otherwise a heavy loss must he faced by the packer. It is always harder to raise the price of a product than it is to reduce its quality; and it was easier for "Amber Tips" to meet the increased cost by giving an inferior article by adding lowgrade inferior leas. But the " Amber Tips "standard has been Betas the highest that can be given at the price—the best value that can be obtained for the money—and this standaid will still be maintained. Only 2d. par lb. more is asked, and that "id. per lb. ensures' the finest tea that can be purchased in the world at the same price. This seems rather a bold statement. but we are prepared to back it up by facts. Prove it for yourself. Write to your friends in ICnglnnd, Australia, Canada, or elsewhere-scud them a packet of "Amber Tips" and ask them if they cam secure the same value, quality, purity, and flavour for even lid per lb. more. After all is said and done, surely the increase in cost in but small when one considers that the finest value in the world is being secured—a tea which is so absolutely pure and tine that it caa readily be taken by children and by those of the weakest digestion. Then. too. " Amber Tips'" is the most economical tea because it gives more cups per lb. of the delicious refreshing beverage—the coat per cup is less, so that von are still savin" money and
