Your Breakfast Coffee will be a real joy--if
you prepare half-and-bali with hot, rich Glaxo ---the milk with the real English flavour.
Glato in the milk of British-bred tlairy cows from which the water has been removed by the Glaxo Process. This process presents the nourishing solids of the milk in the form of a dry powder, which, packed in a parchment bag inside an airtight sealed in, comes to you across the seas with all its freshness and flavour unimpaired.
All you have to do is to add boiling water only (a hall- pint to three dessertspoonfuls of Glaxo). Mix as much as you require when you require it-the rest will keep for a considerable period, if the sin be kept tightly closed and in a cool place.
