The Finest "Nightcap"
"I find Glaz-ovo all that you
claim for it. As a 'nightcap'
or sleep-inducer I think it is the finest I have yet tried, a5 it doesn't stop at giving one sleep. but a fit-for-anything feeling in the morning."

The Best Night's Rest
"After taking Glax-ovo I had the best night's rest 'very long I have had for
time and woke next day feeling very rested."
Mrs. B. L. S..
1have had the best night's rest for many months. Inow know. what to have for supper."

No more sleepless nights
When you toss from side to side, and vainly count imaginary sheep. passing through a fictitious gace and yet can't fall asleep when. nothing will induce even that dreamy feeling that ushers in sleep, how you long for dawn. As you hear the clocks strike and listen to the myriad sounds that fill the darkness, you realise that there is no real stillness of the night.
And when morning comes, you get up jaded and unrefreshed and totally unfit to face the day's work or enjoy the day's play...
How different it is when you can go to bed and enjoy the peaceful dreamless sleep of a tired bealthy child And this blessing of sound sleep is within your reach you take a cup of Glax-ovo each night before going to bed.

The marvellous "Ostelin" vitamin D concentrate feeds those starved and harassed nerves, its rich milk and selected malt extract give rise to that drowsy feeling, and its delicious chocolate flavour makes it an added pleasure with which to round off the day. Get a tin to-day and try it for yourself.

BON VOYAGE.
THE LONG, LONG DAYS AT SEA.
So many people whom you meet just now are going home on lunva.– or for good-that the question of travelling is in everyone's mind. The voyage home is long and so are the days spent on board, "as- pecially for these who bavo childron to look after or are restless little children themselves, and the wise mother will take with her a stock of things to keep the little ones amused.
An excellent chance is offered by (the Book Shop and Biblo, Depôt who. are selling off at half price a large collection of shop soiled children's books, painting books, etc. None of these were expensive in the first instance and they are certainly great bargains at half price. Be- sides books of stories which the bigger children can read for them- selves there are some delightful, little books written in short words for the small person who is first learning to read. You will find all sorts of familiar friends of your own childhood there," Books for the Bairns, for example, which I have not seen, for I don't like to think how many years.
Besides the story books there are embroidery cards, for the small girl or boy to sew, painting books, transfers scraps, chalks, and kinder- garten play lesson books 'which' would, any of them, prove a boon and a blessing indeed to the mother travelling with children.

Mrs. Southorn has worked for the Women's Hostel ainee the scheme was first mooted, and as. tremely well-educated woman her- self takes the deepest interest in anything which will be of help to the education of the women and girls of this Colony. Fancy dress is not obligatory, but from whit we hear there will be some very effective costumes seen to-morrow night.
Tickets can be had as the door, price 82.30 including refreshments.
