Thousands of men and women past 40 face the dangers of heart, trouble and paralysis because of High Blood Pressure. High Blood Pressure is a mysterious dis- exso that causes more deaths than cancer, largely because people mistake the symp- toms for Indigestion or some simple trou-- ble. Common symptoms are: Pressure in the head, headaches at top and back of head and above eyes, dizziness, short breath, nervousness, ?poor sleep, heart pains, drowsinam, loss of memory and energy. If you suffer any of these Bymp- toms, do not delay a single day, for your life may be in danger. Start treatment at once with Hynox, which reduces High Bloed Pressure with the first dobu, takes a heavy load off the heart, and makes you feel yourO younger in a faw days. Gať Hynex frera your chemist today. It' in gunrmnteed. te make you fsal fit and strony or money back.
