It's EASY to Catch COLD or FLU

'ASPRO'

WILL PROTECT YOU

GERMS are no respecters of persons. Wherever you travel you cannot tell the moment you are likely to catch a cold or even the 'Flu. The proved protection is ASPRO. At the slightest sign of sneezing ——sore throat-feverishness, etc... take 'ASPRO" according to the directions in the packet. Quick relief is assured, because "ASPRO' expels the body poisons through the pores of the skin, and, therefore, restores one to normal health by eliminating such poisons and nor suppressing them. Furthermore, 'ASPRO' is safe,

sure and certain-it neither harms the heart nor stomach, di conforms to the standard of purity laid down by 'e British Pharmacopoeia—the guiding authority of the medical profession.
