NOVASEPTIC does this within lo seconds. When an antiseptic is taken into the mouth it becomes diluted with saliva, Many mouthwashes effective when "undiluted " become. useless or very slow in action when diluted.

NOVASEPTIC KILLS STREPTOCOCCUS—HAEMOLYTICUS, SCAELATINAE, B. DIPHTHERIA, B. PNEUMONIA, B. INFLUENZAE, AND OTHER MICRO-ORGANISMS WITHIN 15 SECONDS EVEN WHEN GREATLY DILUTED.
