Pain T
Some folks take pain for granted.
They let a cold "run its course."
They wait for their headaches to "woar off.".
If suffering from neuralgia or from neuritis,
they rely on feeling better in the morning.
Meantime, they suffer unnecessary pain.
Unnecessary, because there is an antidote.
Bayer Aspirin always offers immediate relief
from various aches and pains we once had to
endure. If pain persists, consult your doctor
as to its cause.
Save yourself a lot of pain and discomfort
through the many uses of Bayer Aspirin. Pro
tect yourself by buying the genuine. Bayer Is
tajt. Always the same. All drugstores.
