ARE you a restless sleeper? Do you often
L u toss and turn for hours before you fall
asleep? Or do you wake up in the middle of
the night and then find it almost impossible
to get back to sleep again?
If SO, here's the solution to your problem.
A safe solution thousands have adopted
largely on physicians advice.
For scientific research has determined the
outstanding reasons for sleeplessness. Has
revealed that most sleep troubles are caused
by three specific things.
These causes are: % bloOd-congested brain
cells (2) digestive unrest and (3) nervous
irritability. And science has also evolved
way of combating all three causes of sleep
lessness at their source
You fall asleep almost as soon as your head
touches the pillow, And sleep all night as
soundly as child. No more waking in the
dead of night! No more tossing and count
ing sheep"
In the morning, you awaken vastly re-
freshed-wlth quiet nerves and mind

that's fresh and clear Filled with an abun-
dance of new energy that lasts straight
through the day.
For this new discovery not only induces
sound sleep quickly but acts to rebuild
nerve and body tissue as you sleep. And
greatly multiplies your ability to recover
quickly from fatigue
A SpIss Discovery
The discovery which does this is delicious
food-drink, first discovered in Switzerland
nov made over here.
1t is called Ovaltine-a concentrate of
natural food-elements, entirely free from
drugs.
Taken as warm drink at bedtime it acts
3 ways to bring you sound, restful sleep
FIRST: Ovaltine cOmbats mental over-activ-
ity, which often keeps you lying awake and
worrying when you re trying to get to sleep.
1t does this by drawing excess blood away
from the head.
Thus mental calm is invited the mind is
conditioned" for sleep.
Second: Ovaltine contains in high propor-

ton unique food property called diqstase
"a property recognized for its ability to
digest the starch content of other foods
regularly taken into the stomach Thus
possessing the power to tighten digestive
burdens and help the stomach rest"
Third: Also notable among the constituents
of Ovaltine is calcium. And it is in
creasingly realized that a proper calcium
metabolism is necessary to avoid nerve
irritation.
Phosphorus, too, is an essential part of
brain and nerve cells. Ovaltine supplies this
in abundance and in it's easily assimilated
food form Qecithin) n)-together with high
proportion of the anti-neuritic Vitamin b.
Thus, a cup of Ovaltine at bedtime not only
promotes relaxation and combats digestive
unrest but also acts remarkably to over
come sleeplessness due to irritated nerves.
10000 Physicians Adrse Ii
So unusual are the results obtained by
Ovaltine, that it has been approved by
more than 10000 doctors During the
World War, medical authorities made it
standard ration for rehabilitating invalid,
nerve-shattered soldiers While today its
use has spread to "a different countries.
Each week hundreds of letters, received
from all over America, tell true-life expe-
riences with this remarkable discovery.
For example, a typical letter recently re-
ceived from Mr.. Edward Felker (Box 433)
Erie, Pa, says: Usually have lain in bed
2 to 3 hours before going to sleep But the
first night used Ovaltine, went to sleep
almost at once after hit the pillow. After
l had taken it for three nights my nerves
were much steadier and my brain much

See For Yourself

See For Yourself
Don't judge Ovaltine merely by what users
claim for it. Even disregard, if you wish,
the fact that it is endorsed by 10000 doc
tors Try ii and see for yourself
See how quickly you fall asleep at night
how much fresher you feel next day.
As you continue to take Ovaltine, note the
permanent benefits you obtain. Note how it
builds up and maintains your natural tend
ency to sleep soundly erery night-how
vitality multiplies.
Phone your druggist or grocer for a tin of
Ovaltine tonight. Or, if you wish, send the
coupon below for generous trial supply.
Mix two to four teaspOonfuls with cup of
warm milk and drink it just before you get
into bed. You'll sleep more soundly than
you have, probably, in weeks and months.
And feel like new person in the morning.

CHINESE EXODUS
FROM JAIL SET
FOR TOMORROW

Almost one-half of the Chinese
Jail will leave tomorrow morning,
bound San Diegoward for federal
court and eventually for China by
means of deportation.
Stages tomorrow morning will
carry AZ Chinese and two Mexican
prisoners to the coast city for trial
on charges of illegal entry into the
United States. This leaves so
Chinese and almost an equal num-
ber of Mexicans at the county Jail
as immigration prisoners.
A survey of Jail records today
showed that % Chinese have been
received by Jailer Eddie Nett and
his aides since May ID, and the
Jail crew has little hopes the mi
grafton of Orientals will cease.
In fact, information given by
Chinese prisoners leads the Off
GERS to believe larger groups of Chi
nese will travel north acress the
border in a short time, searching
diligently for an immigration Of
ficer in order they may be ar
rested and deported to their home
land.
Word received here recently from
United States immigration head
quarters was that the Imperial
county Jail has the rather dubious
honor of housing more Chinese dur
ing a years time than any other
Jail in the United States.

NORFOLK, Va, May l8.-Friends
and enemies of John Hughes
Curtis, self confessed Lindbergh
faker, modified in two camps to-
day while police considered the
possibility of prosecuting him.
Friends remembered the man
who led a nation in a fantastic
hunt for phantom schooner and
alleged kidnapers as big. bluff,
blue-eyed, blonde. kindly and di-
rect, one who had been John" to
everyone in town.
Enemies of the 1881 bankrupt

ton" had failed once; his nervous
breakdown afterWard, and remem-
bered that he was in financial
straits months before Charles A.
Lindbergh, jr, was kidnapped.
Both friends and enemies agreed
on a point: That he was born to
be a plunger. Friends as well as
enemies had often said he would
die pauper or multi-millionaire.
While Curtis was cast as a viii
lain in the Lindbergh case. other
actors in his dream drama were
playing out the bitter finale as
fate and their natures directed.
The Very Rev. Harold Dobson-
Peacock, dean of Christ Episcopal
church, issued a long statement
explaining his part in the Curtis
"negotia tions."
Blames Strain
"All the time" he said, Il have
been convinced that we we're OF
the right track and I cannot for
a moment conceive the state oi
mind which induced Mr.. Curtis tc
write the confession published
With this exception: He hac
worked day and night with very
little sleep for a period of two
months and at the time he wrote
the confession he was utterly worn
out from the terrific strain he has
undergone.

phantom vessel described by Curtis
were dispatched 20 minutes before
the death at Washington of Rear
Adm. Frederick c. Billiard, COM
mandant who had directed the
search from his bedside He was
not told of the Curtis confession.
The Rev. H. DobSon- Peacock,
Norfolk rector who with Adm. Guy
H. Burrage, retired, unwittingly
served as a front for Curtis
negotiations was summoned by
Col H. Norman Schwartzkopf to
come to the Lindbergh home at his
earliest convenience. The minister.
protesting confidence in Curtis. was
stunned. Burrage had no comment
A feveriSh hunt for Harry
Fleischer, Detroit gangster and
racketeer, was ordered in Mexico
where he is believed hiding to es-
cape questioning in the kidnapping
and murder.
Breaks Under Grilling
A guilty conscience that tortured
the soul of the Norfolk boat build
er who suffered a nervous break
down a year ago, four days of in
tensive questioning by police, and
discrepancies uncovered by the po-
lice and newspapermen led to Cur
tbs confession and the rapid Sc
quence of developments during the
night.
And by a strange trick of fate
or by deliberate intention of the
police and proSecutors-Curtis spent
another tortuous night after the
confession as an unarrested priS-
oner in the home of the very ones
he so cruelty yictimized-the Lind
berghS.
A third degree, more terrible than
police could conceive, seemingly
wracked the mans mind during a
day in which he was left by him
self and which was followed by
of his confession late
yesterday. Curtis had been ques-
toned by state police for several
days. The procedure had been in
the form of soliciting information
which Curtis might think authori-
ties wanted to aid them in search
for the kidnapers.
Suspicion, however, was directed
at Curtis long before the infant
was found dead Thursday. He was
shadowed by Harry T. Brundidge,
reporter for the st. Louis Star,
during some of the trips after
which he reported contact" with
the "kidnapers.
Brundidge followed Curtis one
day and found him deep sea fish
ing, but Curtis declared he had
spent the day with the kidnapers.
On another occasion the newsman
flew over the area where Curtis
said he would meet the gang, which
would be in a small yacht. Brun-
didge saw only freighters in this
area during the time Curtis re-
ported another contact"
Still another incident led police
to doubt Curtis sincerity. When
they asked him for a report on his
activities he handed them his notes
in manuscript form, beautifully
written and in chronological order.
