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 Hitle water. Genasprin will For soothe your nerves and give you 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 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 Genasprin myself in place of all other asprin, and have also given them to children when the Doctor bas ordered aspirina. I found with myself that other cheaper brands of aspirin did upset my heart and often souhod to give me fodigestion, 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."
