TOTHING is more enervating than humidity, excessive heat and sunglare, which seriously saps the human vitality. Such a strain

on the nervous system weakens the powers of resistance, resulting in headaches, conditions of lassitude, nerviness, debility, etc. During hot trying periods 'ASPRO' can prove invaluable, particularly due to the fact that after ingestion in the system in promotes skin action and poison elimination through the pores-the natural function of the body. Furthermore, 'ASPRO' quierens and soothes the nerves and is the ideal medicine for minor complaints during sweltering hot weather conditions and heat waves.
