But remember-
Ovaltine results are obtained
In these nerve-wearing days there is nothing more essential than nerve-restoring sleep from which you awake revitalised, cheerful and confident. Obviously no bed- time beverage can give you this kind of sleep unless it has definite nerve-building properties. Long experience and scientific tests have amply shown that. 'Ovaltine' is outstanding in this respect.
The exceptional nerve-restoring properties of 'Ovaltine' are largely derived from the new-laid ' eggs liberally used in its manufacture. The eggs which ‘Ovaltine' contains make it the complete tonic food beverage. Moreover, 'Ovaltine' possesses the essential vitamins, mineral salts and carbohydrates in their most assimilable form,
The proprietors of ‘Ovaltine' go to. unusual lengths to ensure and control the excellence of the in-

sons why there is nothing like 'Ovaltine'. Although imitations are made to look the same, there are very important differences..
'OVALTINE' DOES NOT CONTAIN ANY HOUSE- HOLD SUGAR. FURTHER- MORE, IT DOES NOT CON- TAIN STARCH. NOR DOES IT CONTAIN A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF COCOA;
It would be a simple matter to cheapen 'Ovaltine' by altering the proportions of its ingredients, and adding large quantities of sugar. But the result would not be 'Ovaltine', the beneficial proper- tles of which are so important to you now.
A 3-year series of scientific tests on sleep demonstrated that 'Ovaltine' alone, taken regularly at bedtime, cut down tossing and turning and gave a feeling of being "better rested" in the morning. Many other tests have proved the exceptional nerve- restoring properties of 'Ovaltine. It is entirely free from drugs.
