COOLNESS
AN ICE COLD drink, deliciously refreshing. The very thought is intri guing. Why not a glass of Nestle's Malted Milk, with ice? You will find no other drink that is so cooling. A concentrated tonic food prepared from the purest ingredients, fresh full-cream milk blended with Maited Barley and Wheat, it will react favourably on the entire system. Being easily soluble and taking but a few moments to prepare, a refreshing drink is to hand almost immediately.
Nestle's Malted Milk is packed in screw-cap bottles and will remain fresh for a considerable
· period in the hottest climats.

THE THREE CLOUDS.
Three little clouds one summer
day
Went flying through the sky, When suddenly they lost their
way, .:
And they began to cry. Then kind old Mister Sun came
And dried up all their tears. "I'll send some fairies down,"
he, said,
"
To quiet all your fears,” The dullness then took wings
and flew
And left those clouds
-bright,
They simply could not lose their
way
Because they were just light.
