dozen complaints that laying up for indefinite periods was necessary-that it was also necessary ta take-dangerous drugs and narcótici-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.
