Bui it's just as important to know that there is only one genuine Bayer Aspirin. The name Bayer is on every tablet, and on the box. If it says Bayer, it’s genuine; and if it doesn’t, it is not! Headaches are dispelled by Bayer Aspirin. So are colds, and the pain that goes with them; even neuralgia, neuritis, and rheumatism promptly relieved. Get Bayer—at any drugstore— .vith proven directions. Physicians prescribe Bayer Aspirin; it does NOT affect the heart trig la tb> trad» m art of Barer M aoofartm a o f M oBoaotU addaatrr of S a llc/Ilaaeti
