Inereasing Weight—.4 pound or more a week Improving Appetite—(ore food with no coaxing Bringing New Energy—_4nd greater strength each day The discovery from Switzerland that is solv- ing child problems for mothers everywhere “They Drink Twice the Milk They Used to— Since Over in Switzerland, as you may know, a Friend Advised Ovaltine” they have done wonders in child feeding. M et s b o . . tt) not drink t! Their famous child sanitariums have ac- amoitofmlitedoctoeuilitiey oukl complished almost the miraculous. have. | tried every way | knew to coax them to drink their milk without success. They were nervous, underweight and irri- table and | was worried. Then a friend advised me to try Ovaltine —to put it in the children’s milk and give it to them hot or cold. 1 did this and noticed an improvement at once. That's how | got my children to drink twice the milk they used to, in the face of the fact that a week ago I couldn’t even coax them to drink enough. And If you have a child that is underweight— nervous, or easily exhausted—that won't eat enough, or drink milk, we think you will be interested in every picture on this page. For these pictures illustrate the use of this Swiss method in the United States. These pictures tell a wonderful story to any mother—the story of how thousands of nervous, unhappy, underweight chil- dren have been almost miraculously rebuilt to the happy vigor of normal childhood. The results pictured here were gained by the use of a remarkable Swiss food concen- trate. Discovered almost 40 years ago by a famous Swiss scientist, the use of this food-d-ink—called Ovaltine—has spread over some 54 countries of the world. New to America, over 20,000 doctors— many world-famous child experts—are ad- vising it. If your child is underweight for his age or height—try it. If your child is nervous, irri- table,cries easily or tosses in his sleep—try it. If your child’s appetite is poor -or hewon’t drink milk—try it. If your child seems to tire quickly —try it. If your child is recovering from any illness—try it. If your child tends to lose weight during the summer— try it. It has worked wonders in thousands of cases like these. It may do much or little for your child—but try . What It Is Ovaltine is a food-drink that is utterly different in formula, taste and effect from any other known. A scientific food con- centrate not remotely to be confused with powdered, sugary, chocolate, malt or cocoa “mixtures” offered as substitutes. Developed almost 40 years ago by a famous Swiss scientist, Ovaltine contains, in highly concentrated form, virtually every vital food element necessary to life, including, of course, the Sunshine Vitamin D. Due to an exclusive process, employed by no other food-drink known, it supplies those vital elements in such easily digested form that a child’s system can absorb them even when digestion is impaired. How It Acts Some of those elements in Ovaltine build bone and muscle. And thus create new strength. Others build firm flesh. And thus constantly increase weight. Others de- velop nerve poise; for, as weight increases nervousness perceptibly decreases. “He’s Gained 5 Pounds in 4% Weeks” After my little boy had had his tonsils re- moved, | found it impossible to build up either his nerves or his weight. He was much under- weight and so fretful that I thought I might have to take him to the mountains for his health. My husband and | decided to give Ovaltine a trial—giving it to our boy regularly twice a day. Yesterday we weighed him and do you know what we found? He had gained 5 pounds in 4! weeks! These results were so surprising that | weighed him twice to make sure that | was right. Really, I can’t be thankful enough for Ovaltine. Mrs. M. W. C,, 2640 N. Charles St.; Baltimore, Maryland Other elements foster richer blood. And thus combat conditions of anemia. All are supplied in scientific ratio to meet the body’'s needs. That is why results are often so astonishing. Digests Starches Then, too, Ovaltine has high diastatic power. Which means the power of digest- ing the undigested starches from other foods eaten. Thus, this scientific creation not only fur- nishes tremendous food energy in itself, but greatly increases the effectiveness of all starch foods your child eats. Such as oatmeal, bread, potatoes, etc., which com- prise over half the normal child’s daily diet. Consider what this means. You take this food-drink in milk, hot or cold. Children love its new delicious flavor it makes them drink more milk and makes every glass doubly nourishing. Give it at breakfast, always. Give it with meals and between meals. One week's re- sults will surprise you. Note the difference in your child’s weight; in nerve poise, in greater strength and energy. Get a can tomorrow and find out, for your child's sake, what this creation means to you and yours. Get Ovaltine —in 3 sizes—at any drug or grocery store. (Note)— Thousands of nervous people, men and women, are using Ovaltine to restore vitality when fatigued. During the Great War, it was a standard ration prescribed by the Red Cre arestorative food for invalid soldiers of all nations. Ovaltine is now made in 8 countries (including the U. S. A)) according to the exact original Swiss formula—to meet the demand from 54 different nations. 743 “It Put Her on Her Feet, When I Was Sure I Was Losing Her”’ My little daughter 2% years old had the flu with measles following. As the result of this she was very puny and nervous, cried all day, bit her finger nails, and refused to eat her meals or drink milk. At night she was restless. Altogether she was in bad shape. Ovaltine put my little girl on her feet again when | was sure | was losing her The roses are coming back in her cheeks. She sleeps and eats regularly, does not bite her finger nails any more, plays out in the sunshine all day and is altogether a different little girl.

Shumaker, 20th Ave. & 14th St., Fulton, lllinois ““Now He’s a Rosy- Cheeked, Healthy Lad” My little boy, three years old. had rickets. I tried to build him up with vegetables, fruit juices and medicine, but he got no bet- ter. A year ago | started to give him Ovaltine. From the first he started to pick up and is now a rosy-cheeked, healthy lad. He takes Ovaltine twice a day and shall continue to do so. Mrs. R. S. Wessel, + Grand City, Staten Island, New York “They’ve Made Wonderful Gains in Weight and Color” I've been using Ovaltine since it first came on the market for both my children, ages 5and 7 years. Like many children, my little girl, now aged 7, was underweight and not very strong. She refused to eat breakfast or to drink milk and my little son was much the same. Having read about Ovaltine in a magazine, | decided to try it. Both of the children loved it from the first, particularly thelittle girl. Now they both drink their Ovaltine regularly, warm in winter, cold in summer, and [ feel that they are always sure of having enough food. Ovaltine has built my little girl up into a strong robust girl, and has been splendid for the boy. They've both made wonderful gains in weight and color, alldue to the constant use of Ovaltine. I've told many, many mothers about it both in Chicago, my former home, and here in Jacksonville. Mrs. J. H. Frink, 2108 Frederica Place, Jacksonville, Fla.
