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

No more sleepless nights
When you toss from side to side, and vainly count imaginary sheep passing through a
fictitious gate-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 healthy child And this blessing of sound sicep is within your reach if 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.
