DON'T Jet Headaches lower your powers of resistance. Two or three 'ASPRO' Tablets, taken with a' drink of water, will banish most Head- aches in a few minutes. It's a mistake to think that because it's hot and humid you must endure a Headache. Even the most healthy suffer at times: heat, sun-glare, humidity and steeplessness all help to reduce physical, resis- tance, with the result that a Headache attacks you. 'ASPRO' will quickly clean it up before it has time to sap your vitality, make you listless, irritable. nervy and out of sorts. 'ASPRO relieves in a perfectly soothing way, and is not harmful, because it is a pure medicine, containing no questionable or dangerous antidotes. Keep 'ASPRO' in the house to check Colds, Influenza, Rheumatism, Dengue. Neuritis, etc. It is safe insurance against everyday summer ills; it gives quick, certain relief and doc, not harm the heart,
