FOR THE NURSING MOTHER Both before and after the birth of her children, a mother needs plenty of simple, easily digested nourish- ment to meet the extra flemandr made upon her system.

Doctors, and nurses know that Horlicks is an 'deal food for both expectant and nurslog mothers. Not only is it extremely palatable and easy to take, but it promotes sound sleep and prevents morning sickness.

Horlicks, moreover, provides the extra nourisiunent nursing mothers need. It is invaluable where the digestive powers are weak, and tends Ir prevent constipation.

In these dimcult times of anxiety and worry, the task of carrying on and doing work which must be done in a doubly cult one which must tend to exhaust one's nervous energy, Horlicks builds up strength, vitality and prevents that listlessness and tiredness caused by constant nervous strain.
