OF HEADACHE
Aspironal Elixir Relieves Right
Now—Tablets and Powders
Must Wait To Be Digested—
Absolutely Safe. .
The next time you have a headache
go to your nearest drug store, hand
the clerk half a dollar for a bottle
of Aspironal and tell him to serve
you two teaspoonsful, in a little wa
ter. With your watch in your hand
count off two minutes and call for
your money back, as per manufac
turer’s guarantee. If you can’t feel
your headache fading away within
the time limit.
Doctors recommend and druggists
guarantee Aspironal because they .
know it acts so much quicker, with- i
out the slightest danger to the heart
and because it removes the cause of
bilious and sick headaches by its gen- *
tie action on the liver. Aspironal i,
corrects biliousness and constipation, '
thereby preventing the return of
your headache next day. All drug- ;

Aspironal, so don't be bashful. Ev

Have you tried the famous reme

ciate the wonderful virtues of Che-i
ney’s Expectorant and how delight- j
ful a cough and cold mixture may be |

been the wonder cf the drug trade
I for over 30 years. Its sales have
steadily increased from year to year,
i During the “Flu’’ epidemic last year
■ the sale of Cheney’s Expectorant was I
' so great that the manufacturers could
hardly supply the demand. Physi
cians recommend Cheney’s Expec
torant for all kinds of coughs, colds,
sore throat, whooping cough, asthma,
headaches from colds, runnings of
1 the nose, and that generally miser
able feeling which coughs or colds
afflict us with. They tell us that the
