Don't Let
High Blood Pressure
Shorten Your Life
How to Stop thread This.
Take Norma.

1t may surprise you to know high
blood pressure is SO serious that in
0urance companies refuse to issue
policies to those who have it. All
because it shortens life.
High blood pressure gives little
warning and until certain symp.
toms take hold, you do not know
II. They are head pains, flushed
face, hot flashes, dizzy spells, short
ness of breath, sleeplessness, and
nervousness:\4
Only a purely vegetable medicine
like Norma that drives out the
waste matter which clogs the sys-
tenn and forces the heart to do ex-
ira work can reduce high blood
pressure. Often one bottle Of Nor
ma will bring reduction enough to
stop the symptoms which distress
and worry you.
Norma Is a physicians prescrip.
ton. It worked so wonderfully in
his personal practice that it has
now been placed in drug stores so
that people everywhere can obtain
Il. Check the uncertainty of high
blood pressure. by reducing 1t with
Norma. Peoples Drug Stores or
your favorite druggist can supply
you.
