QUININE IS NOT ENOUGH

Though quinine is essential in the treatment of Malaria, Genasprin is of wonderful benefit in relieving the pains in your muscles and joints. Genasprin, the absolutely pure and therefore safe brand of aspirin, soothes the nerves, induces deep restful sleep and so helps to reduce the temperature. Genasprin and quinine may be taken with perfect safety at the same time.

Temperature Gone in 2 Hours.

A frequent victim of Malaria writes: "In Eases of Malaria I take 10 grains of Genasýrin (2 tablets) followed 10 minutes later by. 10 grains of quinine. I then BOOK begin to perspira --- having, of course, gone to bed under plenty of blankets-- and in a couple of hours my temperature has gone and there is no need to continue the Genasprin. Pisin quinine by itself is not effective and only results in a severe headache. The Genasprin not only excites a healthy perspiration, but also banishes the ill-effects of quinine -- headache, dead- ness, dizziness and weakness.”
