No Better Nightcap than Gerstena Gruel’ These Winter nights you coqld have no more delicious and nourishing nightcap than a howl of Gerstena Gruel, sweetened and flavoured with Vanilla, Nutmeg, Lemon, or any spice you fancy. It takes no longer to prepare than a jug of coffee—a couple of minutes’ boiling is all it requires. Make it just like porridge, only with milk, and using half the quantity of mtSJP y i yPt/1 sil *2 ll /! vf‘ it tX 5 9 This Gerstena Gruel is far preferable to that made with Cornflour; it is not at all heavy and will not disturb one’s rest, as cocoa and indigestible drinks are prone to do. Try it for supper—it has a taste that tempts and never tires. All Grocers sell Gerstena. la
