Alásil
The New &improved form of AspinN
Endorsed by Thousands of enthusiastic users
DELIGHTED USERS EVERYWHERE ARE LEARNING FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE THE EXCEPT- IONAL ADVANTAGES OF "ALASIL" TABLETS FOR THE RELIEF OF PAIN.
'Alasit" tablets contain the normal supply of the highest quality aspirin plus Alocol', an effective antacid and stomach sedative. Thus Alasi will do anything that uspisin will do and MORE.
This special scientific combination of aspirin and "Aloco!" makes Alasll' tablets acceptable to everyone-aven to those with sensitive digestions. Thus it helps to make the pain-relieving qualities of the aspirin more effective.
It is for this reason that 'Alagil'. has been so widely prescribed by the medical and dental professions.
| Keep "Alašil", by you and next time you need an "aspitin take an "Alasil” and realise for yourself. why thousands are switching to "Aluil.*
