Why BRO-ASPRIN
is better than
Just Aspirin
Any pain or cold relief med-
icine to be perfect should
do three things: relieve the
pain or cold; remove the
cause of the trouble; and
then leave the system.
BRO-ASPRIN does all
three of these things and
that is why it is so rapidly
replacing plain aspirin as a
pain or cold reliever.

Free From Old Trouble
Auburn, Maine. —“I suffered with
Inward weakness for ten yeara and
had doctored all this long time but
never got any help. One dav I saw
my sister and she told me of Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
and I went and got me a bottle of it.
I took two bottles and a half and I
was just as free from my old troubles
as I could be. I had only one child
and I was afraid that I could neve*
have any more, for I had been told
that I never could have a living child
for I was not strong enough to carry
one. But they were mistaken and I
had a nice baby boy and now I have fiva

¥_TEALTH and good looks go
JL lhand In hand. If you do not
keep clean internally, your looks
and health are undermined to-
gether. A clogged intestine breeds
poisons that reach every
part of the body. These
poisons ruin the complex-
ion and undermine
health. Constipation
brings on such ailments
as headaches, bilious at-
tacks, and insomnia—
each of which sapsyour
health and vitality. Soon much
more serious conditions follow.
In constipation, say intestinal spe-
cialists, lies the primary cause of
more’than three-quarters of all ill-
ness including the gravest diseases
of life.
Laxatives
Aggravate Constipation
Laxatives and cathartics do not
overcortie constipation, say sa noted
authority, but by theircontinued use
tend only to aggravate the condi-
tion and often lead to permanent
injury.
Medical science, through knowl-
edge of the intestinal tract gained
by X-ray observation, has found
at last in lubrication a means of
overcoming constipation.
