The enterprise of the British manufacturer, supported us it has been by the public demand, bas produced a range of broadcast re ceivers which are far ahead of those obtainable on the Cantinent, where the receivers available are comparable with the majority of those on sale in this country two years ago. Not only is this ap plicable to the design but also to the manufacture, which is far below the British standard, and very little attempt appears to have boon made to produce broadcast receivers which shall uppeal to the non-technical public who, not baing interested in the scientific aspect, at the same time are desir ous of listening to the broadcast programmest

FRECKLES AND HIS FRIENDS

IN THE ASCENT,

For a Clear Healthy Skin

use 7am-Buk

THE simplest and quickest

way to rid the skin of rashes, eczema, itch and all soreness and eruption is to apply Zam-Buk two or three times a day.

Pain, itching and inflammation is quickly subdued, and impurity is thoroughly drawn out of the skin by the Zam-Buk treatment. Proper perseverance with Zam-Buk is found to bring the most troublesome and unhealthy skin back to perfectly clear and healthy condition.

Being a pure herbal medicine and free from all trace of animal fat, and crude mineral drugs, Zam-Buk is readily absorbed by the. tiny skin pores. That is why it goes deep into the underlying tissues

where all the worst skin diseases have their roota.

For eczema,

Dhobies' itch, prickly heat, impetigo, ringworm, poisoned wounds and sores, leg ulcers and piles, Zam-Buk is the unrivalled cure. Also for perfect healing of cuts, scratches, burns, scalda, insect bites, sore feet, etc., keep Zam-Buk always handy. FREE FROM ANIMAL FAT.

Dispensaries everywhere sell ZAM BUK, agents: Messrs. Wakefield and Company, Ltd. Szechuten Road, Shanghai.
