It's eXasperating when men don't understand-and embarrassing when they do. Women who have learned of Midol don't have painful periods.
 Midol is not a narcotic. It acts only on the organs affected. Per feCtly safe, but swift; it brings com- plete comfort in five to seven min- utes, No matter how hard a time you've always had. Midol will dispel every particle of pain. It is only common sense to use it, for it does nothing 10 hinder the normal. na- tural process of menstruation; but makes it painless.
