Full Support From N.Z.
Assurance Given By Mr. Peter Fraser
WELLINGTON, June 19 (Reuter)-The people of New Zealand will support Britain to the very end, Mr. Peter Fraser said to-day.
They believe that with the immense resources of the Empire, victory can be finally achieved,
He told the House of Representa- tives to-day the British people were determined to continue, the fight not only because it was right to do so but also because they were confident that they could succeed.
New Zealand's Pledgo New Zealand joined with other members of the Commonwealth in pledging herself to that end,
The battle about to begin was one which the British people were proud to nght, Mr. Fraser said New Zeo- land was still prouder to associate herself with them in this grave and Inteful hour.
"All I can say
now is that the people of New Zealand will not fail,” he concluded.

THE TURNING POINT IN CONVALESCENCE
When the crisis is past in illness, recovery may still be a long way off. The real turning point for the belter comes when the patient begins to l out and plek up noticeably from day to day,
decisivo factor in that quick recovery is good food. When patients cannot take solid meats and have a disinclination for most kinds of food. doctors give them Horlicks. Horlicks Is so light, that the most delicate stomach can assimilate it, so delicious that the most finicky appetite res ponds to it. It is a complete food in itself, balanced, highly nutritious, fall of the elements that the wasted body needs to restore shattered "nerves and bul healthy tissues.
Keep Horlicks in the house always. You can get it to-day at your store.
