TABLETS
A New & Improved Form of Aspirin A Product of the Ovaltine Research Laboratories
IN 'Alasil' tablets the 'Ovaltine' Research Lab. oratories have found a way to make aspirin more effective and acceptable, thereby achieving
■ notable advance in the relief of pain.
'Alasil' tablets contain the normal supply of the highest quality aspirin plus 'Alocol', an affective antacid and stomach, sedative. This special scientific combination of aspirin and 'Alocol makes 'Alasit tablets acceptable to everyone— even to those with sensitive digestions. Thus it helps to make the painrelieving qualities of the aspirin more effective.
Because of its special advantages 'Atanil' is widely prescribed by Doctors, Dentists and Specialists. "Alasil tablets break up at once in water, are pleasant to take and quick in action. They soothe the stomach and do not affect the heart.
Koup 'Alasil' tablets by you and next time you need an aspirin take an 'Alasil' and realise for yourself why thousands are switching to "Alall.' Taku 'Alasil' fors Headache, Toothache, Neuralgin, Colde and Chills, Rheumatic Palna, Sciatics, Lumbago, Steeplesiness and Periodie Paint,
