A malted chocolate drink is sold here on a promise of rest, with the slogan "The More You Work, The Better Sleep You Need" aimed at people whose days are long and demanding. Bournvita was a malted milk beverage developed by Cadbury and marketed in Britain from the early 1930s, and advertisements of that period often presented such drinks as wholesome aids to energy, digestion and sound sleep. Ads like this one show how food and drink makers spoke to households about health and rest well before modern nutrition labeling, and their direct appeal to hard-working readers is worth noticing.
