exhaust their nervous systems with bad effects in later life.
The signs of nervous overstrain to watch out for are: dimculty and slowness in eating meals; páleness and tendency to get byértired; tantrums and -fits of irritability and bad temper. If these signs occur, action should he takelf at once.
What is happening is that the child is using up her nervous energy more quickly than she's replacing it. And it is at night, during sleep, that these stores of hervous energy should be re- placed.
If they are not replaced, the nervous strain on the child gets worse and worse. She's suffering from Night Starvation.
Give your child Horlicks, a cupful, hot, regularly at bedtime. Horlicks will guard her against Night Starvation by replacing her nervous energy
while she sleeps.
You'll see the difference almost at once. There'll be no more up- sets and tantrums, no more slowness at meals. Your child will be happler, more balanced, less worry to you. Her nervous system will be strengthening itself as it should for later life.
