Mr. Stanley Baldwin, replying in the House of Commons, to a sugges- tion that the Stock Exchange should be given a charter empowering them to take more disciplinary measures in the matter of prospectuses, said: "There is no charter that "could be devised by the wit of man that could prevent the fool and his money from being soon parted." -

YOU MUST SLEEP
For
However wide-awake you feel, however over-tired or excited, you will go quickly to sleep if before going to bed you take two tablets of Genasprin, dissolved in a little water. Genasprin will' soothe your nerves and give your deep, restful sleep. Genasprin is the purer, safer brand of aspirin, which neither upsets your digestion nor endangers your heart. That is why you can take Genasprin with perfeci confidence for all head- aches, fevers and nerve-paing.
For Your Children, Too. A practising Hospital Nurse, in
England, writes: "For years now I have taken Genarprin myself in place of all other asprin, and have also given them to children when the Doctor has ordered aspirins. I found with myself that other cheaper brands of Aspirin did upset my heart and often seemed to give me indigestion, but Genneprin never seems to have any effects whatever, and certainly does relieve. headaches very speedily. I never hesitate to take it and find it gives great relief,"
