DIFFICULT YEARS FOR ·

CHILDREN

It's when children start lo shoot up suddenly that they need your special attention. Children who are growing fast often tire easily, get pale, listless and do -poorly at school.

The trouble is that 'children have a double job of work to do. They use up energy in work and play and at the same time they are growing!

Doctors and nurses have re- commended Horlicks for years for children who need this extra energy. Horlicks moreover builds sturdy bone and muscle. You'll find that paleness disappears, and school-work improves. And the children seem to gain endless energy and "go." Get Horlicks to-day.
