People are often too patient with pain.
Suffering when there is no need to suf­
fer. Shopping with a head that throbs.
Working though they ache all over.
And Bayer Aspirin would bring im­
mediate relief!
The best time to take Bayer Aspirin
b the moment you first feel the pain.
Why postpone relief until the pain has
reached its height? Why hesitate to
take anything so harmless?
Read the proven directions for check­
ing colds, easing a sore throat; relieving
headaches and the pains of neuralgia,
neuritis, rheumatism, eta.
You can always count on its quick
comfort.
B u t if pain is of frequent
recurrence see a doctor as to its cause.

F you don’t think your whole life
can be changed by chance, read
thia. I t is the story of a young man
who was pretty well down and but,
bu t he figured he might win a prize
i f he took some advice.
“ As far back aa I can remember
I had been a weakling,” says Mr.
Calvin L . Floyd of Orlando, Florida.
“ A headache, it seemed, was to be
m y life companion. I was always
dizzy in the mornings. Nothing I
a te seemed good for me. Then I
attended a health lecture in a sana­
torium and the physician talked on
‘faulty elimination.' T h a t was cer­
tainly my trouble. One of the patients
asked him about Nujol. He recom­
mended i t highly. 1 decided t o try
one bottle to see if there was any­
thing in what he said about natural
lubrication for the human body.
“ Long before I had finished the
first bottle my ‘companion-headache’
was gone. No more tired out feeling.
I get a real lack out of life now. B y
the way, I almost forgot to tell you
I found a new life companion, too!”
Perfectly simple, wasn’t It? Mr.
Floyd Just learned the normal nat­
ural way to get rid of bodily poisons
(we all have them ) and nature did
the rest. W hy shouldn’t you be well?
Nujol is not a medicine. I t con-
tains no drugs. I t is effective, so
you will be “regular aa clock-work.’’
You can buy it a t all good drug
stores in sealed packages for leas
than the price of a couple of good
cigars.
Many a life changed by a
message like this one.
Begin today. Millions have found
th a t Nujol makes all the difference
in th e world. Nujol will make you
feel fine and you can prove it.
