VIRO 
Sedative, Antispasmodic and Carminative 
Compound No. 29 
In tints Daa’ of 
Speed and the Age of 
Turmoil, most of us 
feel occasionally “out 
OM Sorts i or. “on 
edge” as we like to 
express. it, and we 
begin to worry. This 
“worry” occupies 
strongly our mind 
and aggravates the 
condition rather than 
helps it. Yet, we do 
not, in most cases, consider this condition 
serious enough to consult a doctor and 
we try to diagnose the case, or rather in- 
vent a name for our trouble ourselves, 
which, of course, is usually the first step 
in the wrong direction. Next we get an 
advice or two from a friend who recom- 
mends this or that “sure cure that helped 
Mrs. Brown,’ and before we realize, we 
dose, drug and bromide ourselves from 
an inconsequential beginning to a more 
serious hysterical or hypochondriacal con- 
dition. This is the kind of “self-medica- 
tion” so strongly opposed by the medical 
profession, because the powerful drugs, 
chemicals and active principles of poison- 
ous nature and narcotics are safe only 
when administered by a qualified practi- 
tioner—the doctor. 
If our little ills and aches were handled 
sensibly from the beginning a lot of suf- 
fering and many troubles could be avoid- 
ed, so why not start with the right thing? 
Correct your way of living, your diet, and 
if necessary, reach for a plain home rem- 
edy. Yes, indeed, there is relief in harm- 
less, home remedies if you are careful 
enough in the selection of the right kind. 
One of the typical, old-fashioned home 
remedies is our well known Viro, which 
is a combination of well selected herbs 
and roots such as Valerian, Lady Slipper, 
Vervain, Sculleap, Skunk Cabbage, Catnip 
and many others that are known for their 
beneficial sedative and antispasmodic ef- 
fect on the nervous system. Great relief 
is usually afforded in various forms of 
nervousness and excitability due to strain, 
fatigue, exhaustion and lack of restful 
sleep. As a sedative, it exerts a soothing 
influence on the system by tending to 
lower the functional activity and its pal- 
liative effect tends to allay distressing or 
painful feeling resulting mostly from 
physical or mental over-exertion. 
Viro can be used over a longer period 
if necessary without any ill effects, as it 
is not a habit-producing compound. 
Viro Herb Tea or Tablets $1.00 per 
box.
