happy but for the rivalry, at that time, of the child Deanna Durbin, who outshone her — a thing that bred in her a feeling of inferiority and a shrinking into herself. The roles Judy most loved to play were those of the model wife enjoying a happy married life.
It seemed to her that she had gained what she wished for by her marriage to the artist-director Vincente Minnelli, for he loved her dearly and she returned his love, secure in the complete understanding between them. Judy tried her utmost to guard this marriage from any danger that might threaten it, but at last she failed, and news of their disagreement spread through Hollywood circles... Yet even her closest friends do not know the cause of this discord...
What makes the situation hard for Judy is also the presence of the little girl, who has not yet completed her first year. Judy believed that this child would remain a pillar of her marriage, but her dreams did not come true. This failure in her family life, whose cause is still a closely kept secret, brought her long sleeplessness, so that dark shadows appeared under her wide eyes, and she grew so weak that we lately heard of her leaving acting in order to recover her health. And indeed her sleep has improved and her artistic energy has returned to her, and she has now come back to Hollywood, hoping to take up her work anew. May Judy Garland be granted what her kind heart desires.
Quick help from "Aspro" to ward off colds and influenza
The most effective way to defeat attacks of cold or influenza is to "kill them in the cradle" — and to prevent them from getting a hold on the body. Hence it is advisable to resort to the quick action of "Aspro." Taking two or three "Aspro" tablets at the first signs of fever or sneezing produces an immediate and certain result. The headache "goes" at once, and the feeling of weakness and exhaustion disappears. Two "Aspro" tablets at night, with a hot drink, are quickly followed by deep, restful sleep. During sleep your body gives off perspiration, the temperature falls, and you wake refreshed and in good health.
Gargle also with "Aspro" in a little warm water whenever you feel the least pain in the throat.
Everyone who has tried "Aspro" knows its worth! Read these letters:
I was stricken with a severe headache and cold, and so I cannot express to you my sincere feeling when I took your "Aspro" tablets: no sooner had they settled than I felt complete relief, after I had nearly gone mad from the severity of the cold. And how great were my astonishment and my full admiration when I beheld those amazing results, which left me better than I had ever imagined!
