YOU MUST SLEEP
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 you deep, restful sleep. For Genasprin is the purer, safer brand of aspirin, which neither upsets your digestion nor endangers your heart. That is why you can take Genaspeln with perfect confidence for all head- aches, fevers and nerve-pains.
For Your Children, Too. A practising Hospital Nurse, in
England, writes: "For years now. I have taken Gennspris 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 Genasprin never seems to have any ill-effects whatever, and certainly does relieve headaches very speedily. I never hesitate to take it and find it gives great relief."
Take no Risks-Take
GENASPRIN
The SAFE brand of Aspirin
To relieve the pain of Headache, Malaria, Dengue, Toothache, Heatstroke and Neuralgin, and to soothe the nerves in cases of Sleeplessness, Over- exertion, Excitement and Irritability,
W. R. LOXLEY & Co. Agents,
To obtain the best results, Genasprin should be dissolved in a little water.
