Make teething-time

The first, eagerly expected, little tooth is about to peep through. And baby wants something hard to suck and bite upon to help it to come through easily.
Instead of a bone ring or comforter- which often results in infection from germs and causes malformation of the. mouth-give ‘Ovaltine' Rusks to Baby. Crisp--but not too hard--they give that biting exercise which ensures sound, well spaced teeth and correct jaw formation.
Then through childhood it is the contin- ued use of "Ovaltine' Rasks that keepe the teeth strong and healthy and makes possible those perfect permanent teeth later on.
