N°
O matter what part you are called upon to take in the present situation; protection of the nervous system is necessary for your outlook and well-being. It is of vital importance, therefore, that you should adopt the best means to build up and fortify yourself.
Practical experience has proved the supreme value of 'Ovaltine' for nourishing the nervous system and maintaining it in the highest state of efficiency. The unique nerve-restoring properties of 'Ovaltine' are largely due to the fact that new-laid eggs are used in its manufacture. And eggs are the richest source of lecithin a valuable nerve-building element. No tonic food beverage would be complete without this vital ingredient. Keep a supply of 'Ovaltine' always at hand for use in every emergency. Drink 'Ovaltine' every night to soothe the nerves and induce natural and restorative sleep. And remember that 'Ovaltine' is a complete and perfect food which, by itself, will sustain life. It can be eaten dry if necessary.
.
Furthermore, Ovaltine' is most economical. 24 cupfuls can be made from the small tin, and the larger sizes are even more economical.
