HEADACHES
NEURITIS
NEURALGIA, COLDS
Whenever you have some nagging ache
or pain, take some tablets of Bayer
Aspirin. Relief is immediate!
There's scarcely ever an ache or pain
that Bayer Aspirin won't relieve and
never a time when you can't take it.
The tablets with the Bayer cross are
always safe. They will not depress the
heart, or otherwise harm you. Use them
as often as they can spare you any pain
or discomfort. Just be sure to buy the
genuine. Examine the box. Beware of
imitations.
