THOUSANDS of jreople are getting to sleep promptly at night and sleeping more resifiiUy — thanks to Ovaltine. These people are enjoying the more abundant energy which a good night’s sleep brings. They enjoy life—to the full! Ovaltine is not a drug. It doesn't dope you. It was originated as a food for convalescents and is still used for that pur|*>se. But soon doctors dis covered that, when taken at bedtime, it also helped people to secure sound sleep. Now it is the world’s favorite “nightcap.” I lere's what it does for you:—It helps you relax! It re lieves that feeling of “Inner Tenseness” which pre vents sleeping. Thus, you can get to sleep much more easily and sleep more restfully. If you’re not sleeping well, try this food-drink and see if yon don't fall asleep more promptly. See if you haven’t more “get-up-and-go” as a result. Drink it regularly, every night, at bedtime —iugt mixing 3 or 4 teaspoonfuls in a cup of milk. Mal^e it your regular “nightcap." Don't endanger your health by failing to get proper, restful sleep. 1 )on't impair your efficiency, l.earn how much lietter you feel when you don’t toss and turn half the night.
