Johnston, David Gibb, M.B., C.M., Physician and Surgeon, Carrington Lodge, High Street, Carterton. Born in 1863 at Wishaw, Lanarkshire, Scotland, and educated at the local academy and at the Glasgow University, where he gained his diplomas, Dr. Johnston came to New Zealand in 1886. Settling in Carterton, [gap — reason: illegible] entered into partnership with the late Dr. Smith, of Greytown, and on that gentleman's death continued practice in Carterton.

Baillie, James, Chemist and Druggist, High Street Carterton. Telegraphic address, “Baillie, Chemist, Carterton.” Bankers, Bank of New Zealand. Mr. Baillie is a native of Lanark-shire, Scotland, and came to the Colony in 1879. Shortly after that period he entered on the business, which he now follows, with Barraud and Son, chemists and druggists, Molesworth Street, Wellington, finally passing the Pharmacy Board's standard examination. Early in 1894 he opened a neat and altractive pharmacy in Carterton, replete with drugs and sundries. Mr. Baillie has a number of valued remedies, the result of years of close observation in some of the leading pharmacies of the Colony. A few, viz.:—Stimulating Hair Wash, Sarsaparilla Blood Purifier, Neuralgia Remedy (which rarely fails to give immediate relief), White Worm Powders, Glycerine and Cucumber, Ginger Wine Extract, Condition Powders for the use of horses and cattle, all of which he can faithfully recommend. Mr. Baillie imports direct from the leading English and Continental firms, and keeps only the very best drugs in stock, which is a sufficient guarantee that all dispensing entrusted to him will be despatched with care, skill, and alacrity.
