To good rich milk HORLICK
added the valuable extract of Matted
Barley and Wheat, containing all the
nutrition of these grains, and reduced
them to a powder form, with perma-
nent keeping qualities, and soluble in
water. 1t was found that by the
action of the Malt ferments on the
milk, its digestibility was markedly
increased over ordinary milk, so as
to render it easily assimilated by the
weak stomach of the infant, the in
valid, and the aged.
This well balanced milk food was
\thus perfected, which a third of a
century's experience has amply
proved capable in itself of supporting
infant and adult life.
This new milk food HORLICK
named Matted Mix; it has proved
boon to thousands upon thousands,
from infancy to old age, of every
race and cline, and is to be found in
every city in the civilized world.

DREVIOUS to 1883 it was neces-
sary to add milk to all prepared
Il foods for the infant and invalid,
in order to make properly balanced
diet. But it was difficult and often
impossible to obtain good milk in
cities and tropical climates.
The vital problem Of how to supply
a reliable milk for people of all ages
in any climate that would be avail
able at all times, was finally solved
by HORLICK of Racine, Wis,
u. S. A., after years of labor and ex-
pertinent.
HORLICK discovered a process OF
reducing fresh milk by careful evapo-
ration in vacuum to powder form,
which contained all the valuable con-
stituents of fresh milk, would keep
indefinitely in any climate, and yet
be soluble in hot or cold water.
This was the first time in history
that milk was reduced to a powder
form, soluble IN water, retaining its
natural qualities when dissolved, and
with all the valuable Vifanlines

memorial would be appropriate 10
commemorate the memory Of the
brave men from FL Paso who gave
their lives for their country: but il
viii be more than appropriate that
such permanent memorial be erected
at the proper time and Of course the

Whatever memorial may be erected it
cannot express fully the love, graft

Of the council.

hope that the war work building. the
