“ASPRO' Tablets, taken with a drink of water, will banish most Head- aches in a few minutes. It's a mistake to think that because it's hot and humid you must endure a Headache. Even the most healthy suffer at times; beat, sun-glare, humidity and sleeplessness all help to reduce physical resis- tance, with the result that a Headache attacks you. "ASPRO' will quickly clean it up before it has time to sap your vitality, make you listless, irritable, nervy and out of sorts. "ASPRO3 relieves in a perfectly soothing way, and is not harmful, because it is a pure medicine, containing no questionable or dangerous antidotes. Keep ‘ASPRO' in the house to check Colds, Influenza, Rheumatism, Dengue, Neuritis, etc. It is safe insurance against everyday summer ills; it gives quick, certain relief and does not harm the beart.
