Get some genuine tablets of Bayer
Aspirin and take them freely until
you are entirely free from pain.
The tablets of Bayer manufacture
cannot hurt you. They do not depress
the heart. And they have been proven
twice as effective as salicylates in
relief of rheumatic pain at any stage.
Don’t go through another season
of suffering from rheumatism, or
any neuritic pain. And never suffer
needlessly from neuralgia, neuritis, or
other conditions which Bayer Aspirin
will relieve so surely and so swiftly.

bowels to healthy regularity. It helps
“break-up” a cold bv keeping the

mucus waste.
You hare a famous doctor's word
tor this laxative. Dr. Caldwell’s record
of having attended over 3500 births
without loss of one mother or baby
is believed unique in American
medical history.
Get a bottle of Dr. Caldwell’s
Syrup Pepsin from your drugstore
and nave it ready. Then you won’t
have to worry when any member of
your family is headarhy, bilious, !
gassy or constipated. Syrup Pepsin
is good for all ages. It sweetens the
bowels; increases appetite—makes
digestion more complete.
