ADVICE TO NURSING MOTHERS

It is very important, doctors say, not to overlax your system immediately after the birth of a child. When you are feeding baby yourself, you should take plenty of ensily digested nourish- ment.

For that reason, doctors throughout China recommend Horlicks. They have proved that Horlicks stimulates the appetite,

sound promotes

and sleep strengthens the whole system. Also Horlicks increases the supply of maternal milk and ensures the success of breast feeding.

Get Horlicks to-day from your slore.
