Mothers! Do you realise the Danger of, Using Cow's Milk?

Extract from "Evening Post" .. e o£ August 28th, 1913—a telegram froiiv Chnstchurch, which reads— SPREAD OF TUBERCULOSIS URGENT ATTENTION DEMANDED. ' "The danger of the spread of tuber- ■ .■■'. ; /fculosis from infected milk was again discussed bv thi Chrialfhurch Hospital ! ; Board to-day. Some months ago the Boardhadratheralarmingreporisbcfore if?"' jl on ihe subject. To-day the chairman of the Board reverted to the subject, and members were virtually unar.imcus in . demanding that ihe Govsrnment jive S 'the question urgent attention."

Extract from "N. 2. Times" 'of August 12th, 1913, dealing with the report submitted to Parliament by Dr. Maclaurin, Domin- •• ion Analyst— ADULTERATION OF MII.K "372 Samples of 'milk' were tested. Concerning the Wellingicn tests it was - found that oite quarter of ihe samples .. were found ei her to be deficient in fat, to contain'boric acid, or to be diluted ; with water to an average extent of nearly 10 per cent. Milk is, in thousands of . instances the slaplc food—often the only : food—of infants and invalids. The quality of a milk supply may mean life .. or death. There has been established i in the Dominion Analyst's report the.', urgent need for drastic measures."

Recent statistics show that in. certain parts; of. the Dominion, 25 per cent, of dairy farm cattle were found to be carrying the germs of that dread disease —tuberculosis,' The milk you are now giving baby may contain these germs. For this reason you should use GLAXO —the ideal food for baby.. It is prepared under the most hygienic conditions, and sterilised so that the presence of germ life is rendered impossible. GLAXO is ma-cle from the pure, sterilised milk of cows which have passed the Government test. It is the only perfect substitute for Mother's Milk, for it contains all the properties necessary for the growing frame of the child, including full cream and lactose, modified to such an extent that it is almost equal to mother's milk. < :
