Expectant and Nursing Mothers

find in Glaxo a most valuable aid, for, taken regularly two or three times a day by the mother herself (both before and after the birth of her baby), Glaxo not only maintains the Mother' own strength without taxing her digestion, but also enriches and increases the Row of breast milk. This is because milk makes milk, and Glazo is the nourishing solida of the finest cow's milk, suitably modified and made germ-fres and comfortably digestible by the Class Process.

Should the breast milk fail from any cause, or not nourish Baby satisfactorily, Glazo can be given to Baby in turn with the breast or, as the sole food from birth, for it contains everything to nourish Baby and nothing to cause him harm.

IN OFFERING CON. GRATULATIONS

Remember that human nature is so constituted that it wants sympathy in its joys as 'well as ip its korrows,

Therefore congratulations ere not, or should not bo, mere empty forme. They are, expressions of a real "going out of the spirit" towards one's happy friend..

Very important in the little ceremony of congratulation is its promptness. It is pleasant, too, o bear afterwards, "You were the first to congratulate me.”

t

Don't us the word "luck. when a professional or business success has crowned years of hard work or when genius has been recognised at last.

Don't allude to an engagement as being in itself tremendously fortunate event. Congratulato the engaged on having found each other. This is more graceful.

Distinguish between happiness, success, and luck. They are all good, but they call for a slightly different wording in your con gratulatione.

TWO PERFUME TIPS.

Many scents and toilet waters leave a very disfiguring stain on light materials, and should never be sprayed directly on to any material. If a sachet is not strong enough to scent a garment, a small piece of cotton wool mey ba saturated with perfume and sown to the garment until the scent has evaporated.

If battles of perfume are left in a strong light, artificial or otherwise, there will often be such a decided. chemical change. that the scent is ruined. This is especially
