THERE is no worry or anxiety in rearing Baby healthfully and happûy, even in a tropical climate, when Glaxo is used as Baby's food.

Glaxo is the food that has been used to rear the children in five Royal Nurseries, Court Physicians see that Royal Babics have the best and most nourishing food- that is why Glaxo has been chosen.

Give your Baby Glaxo, and watch the difference after a few days; see how restfully he sleeps, how contented he is and how steadily he increases in weight. Ask your Doctor!
