CENTRAL DRUGS
Why Ar-Pan-Ex Help*
Ar-Pan-Ex, a formula recently perfected by
a noted Eastern Scientist, contains seven ac-
tive ingredients, scientifically "Film-Coated"
to prevent useless and distressing action in
the stomach. The "Film-Coating" dissolves in
the small intestine where ALL pain-relieving
medicine is then quickly released into the
blood stream. Uric ocid is reduced and long-
lasting comfort is swiftly carried by the
blood stream bringing fastest known relief to
every pain-wracked muscle, joint and nerve.
Lot Ar-Pan-Ex Help You
Do what Mrs. Creamer did. Enjoy a new lease
on life with tafe, powerful Ar-Pbn Ex, com-
oounded exclusively for relief of deep-seated
pain. Take this article to any good drug-
store and ASK FOR GENUINE AR PAN EX.
If your druggist is out of it, he will be glad
to order it for you. {’rofeesicnally poeeri

woman knows light Karo is best for cooking... and on the table.. •
it’s Karo for me, the best-tasting

Yes, indeed... biscuits go like hot cakes when
you pour on plenty of delicious Karo waffle
syrup. There’s nothing like it for good eating.
Satisfyin’ flavor. So rich it stands right up on
top of biscuits (keeps ’em light and fluffy).
Keep Karo on your table morning, noon and
night... it tops anything!
Ask your grocer for Karo waffle syrup, in pints and quarts
