Advertisement for Mellin's Food for Infants & Invalids, 1898. 'High Street, Kington, Herefs. November 12th, 1897. Messrs. Mellin's Food, Ltd. Dear Sirs, We are sending you the photo of our boy, taken at 9 months old, and we can honestly testify to the merits of Mellin's Food, as the baby was weakly for the first two months, but thrived wonderfully directly he was put on Mellin's. Yours faithfully, Marion Fryer. 6, Nova Scotia Place, Hotwells, Bristol. November 16th, 1897. Messrs. Mellin's Food, Ltd., Dear Sirs, I am sending you a picture of our little boy, who is just 14 months old - and he is a very healthy little fellow. He has been brought up on Mellin's Food and cow's milk from a month old, and we have not had any trouble whatever with him. Yours faithfully, Mrs. Murphy. Mellin's Food when prepared is similar to Breast Milk. Samples post free, from Mellin's Food Works, Peckham'. [NHS advice: Cows' milk can be used in cooking or mixed with food from around 6 months but should not be given as a main drink to babies until they're 12 months old. This is because cows' milk does not contain the right balance of nutrients to meet your baby's needs. February 2026]. From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
