The sure safeguard is delicious "Ovaltine" as your daily beverage. This perfect concentration" of the nourishment extracted from malt, milk and eggs nourishes the whole system and creates reserves of. strength and vigour to resist colds and epidemic infections. It enables you to fortify yourself against the depressing humidity of summer-- which will come, alas, all-too soon. "Ovaltine" is complete in all the essential food elements and vitam-: ins.
