Delightful Taste, Immediate
 Relief, Quick Warm-Up.

The sensation of the year in the drug trade is Asprional. the two-minute cold and cough reliever. authoritatively guar anteed by laboratories; tested. approved and most enthusiast tcally endorsed by the highest authorities, and proclaimed by the common people ten times as quick and effective as whiskey, rock and rye. or any other cold and cough remedy they have ever tried.
 All drug stores now supplied with the wonderful new elixir. all you have to do to get rid of that cold is to step into the nearest drug store. hand the clerk half dollar for a bottle of Aspironal and tell him to serve you two teaspoonfuis in a glass. With your watch in your hand. take the drink at one swallow and call for your money back in two minutes if you cannot feel your cold fading away like . dream within the time limit. Don't be bashful. for all druggists invite you and expect you to try it. Everybody's doing it
 When your cold cough is relieved take the remainder of the bottle home to your wife and babies. for Aspironal is by far the safest and most effective. the easiest to take and the most agreeable cold and cough remedy for infants and children--Adv.
