PRECAUTION AFTER BABY ARRIVES
Doctors warn mothers to watch their diet after the birth of a child. The right food is of vital importance to the mother and to the child she is feeding.
The ideal food must be easy to digest and highly nourishing. while proventing constipation. For all these reasons doctors prescribe Horlicks. It builds up strength, promotes restful sleep, does not tax the weakest diges- tion and improves the mother's milk.
For many years Horlicks has been given to expectant, and nursing mothers throughout Malaya, with remarkable suc- cess. You can get it from your store to-day.
