m i§ m KV, Jr' LETTER. The manufacturers of " Ovaltine ' have hitherto refrained from publishing testimonials received from members of the medical profession —though many thousands have already been teceived and are being added to daily. The following unsolicited testimonial from a medical practitioner so completely confirms the claims made by us of the wonderfully sustaining and restorative properties of “Ovaltine”that we feel bound to publish it. mm im m mm mm Dear Sirs, 7 he following particulars may be of interest to you. In the beginning of December a little girl patient of mine, four years old, developed Whooping Cough. A week later Pneumonia set in, which proved to be a very severe attack involving both lungs, and lasting between four and five weeks. During the whole of that time her sole nourishment was “Ovaltine.” She absolutely refused anything else, even all meat preparations, but would drink unlimited quantities of “Ovaltine." Her first thought and cry always on wakening Was for a drink of “Ovaltine.” The most interesting fact however is that, in spite of the severity of her attack of Pneumonia she kept in quite good condition all the time, and although of course never plump, she never was in the slightest degree emaciated. Although l have long known and used “Ovaltine” both for myself and my patients, I have never before had such a striking demonstration of its sustaining and nourishing power and digestibility. I can honestly say that it saved that child’s life. Yours truly, (Signed).., M. 8., Ch.B. I IS 1 I N.B.
