time to rest. If you can't stop work,
you can stop the pain. Bayer

In every package of Bayer
Aspirin are proven directions for
headaches, colds, sore throat,
neuralgia. neuritis, etc. Garry these

the theatre; spare you a Sleepless
night when nerves are Jumping"
And no modern girl needs time

Aspirin is an absolute antidote for
periodic pain.

Unemployed Of City
 Beautify All Parks

The development schedule of the park department is two years in advance jue to the tremendous work done by the men working for the unemployment committee according to Superintendent of Parks Irving w. Harrison. The ordinary winter staff of 50 men maintained by the department was increased to 463 by the addition of the men assigned by the unemployment committee.
 The parks have benefited to d great extent by the excellent work done under the supervision of Supt. Harrison. Lakewood, for instance. has been transformed from a Verti- able wilderness to a beauty spot. The entire park has been graded, and a number of retaining walls have been erected, work that would take more than two years if done by the limited park staff.
 Washington park, too. received its share of work. Faced by the job of removing large Knob" in the form of large hill, the men sliced it down and with the material filled gaping hole near the wading pool. Stones and stumps were taken up from var,ous spots in the park and much Identification work was done.
 At Fulton Park, seven or eight acres of land were cleared of stumps and juttinS rocks. Retaining walls
