The TIME TEST and
'ASPRO
THE old idea that a dozen
medicines were needed for a
dozen complaints-that laying up for indefinite periods was necessary—that it was also necessary to take dangeroas drugs and narcotics-was an illusion. 'ASPRO' has dis- pelled it. For it is the medicine that takes the place of a dozen medicines, because. after ingestion in the system. it is an internal antiseptic-an anti-pyretic or fever reducer --an anti-periodic-a powerful germicide. and a solvent of Uric Acid. and, therefore. banishes the causes of numerous complaints. That's why ASPRO banishes beadaches in five minutes. It's the time test for quick action, and it stands the test of time. 'ASPRO' soothes the irritable--brings sweet sleep to the sitepless-relieves rbeumatism in one night-smashes colds and influenza at inception. Furthermore, 'ASPRO' does not harm the heart or the stomach. It can be taken by all. from child to parent. anywhere, any time. The price is within the reach of all.
