KEEP

GOING

Don't let headaches spoil your efficiency in the office or interfere with your evening's amusements. Always keep Genasprin al hand and take two tablets dissolved in a little water the moment you feel pain coming on. Genasprin is far purer than ordinary aspirin and therefore far safer. Quickly and surely it makes pain fade away, and leaves no after-effects whatever. Genasprin retains its wonderful, pain-relieving powers "in spite of repeated administration."

Immediate Relief."

The famous racing motorists, Mr. J. J. Hall, writes: "Through severe vibration and banging about I have suffered from seute, headaches. I have tried almost every known make of remedy, and I definitely state that I have found Genasprin infinitely superior to any. thing else. In addition to bringing immediate relief, Genasprin loaves no unpleasant after-effects whatsoever, soothes the nerves and doen 'all and more than is claimed for it."

Doctors themselves use

GENASPRIN

The SAFE brand of Aspirin】

To relieve the pain of Headache, Malarta, Dengue. Toothache, Heatstroke and Neuralgis, and to soothe the nerves in cases of Sleeplessness, Over- exertion, Excitement and Irritability.

W, R. LOXLEY & Co. Agents.

To obtain the best results, Cenasprin should be dissolved in little water.
