WE DIG OUR GRAVES WITH

OUR TEETH

The very food you eat either de velops or destroys you. What you cat, how much you eat, when and how, is recording every day, every night whether you are climbing up or digging down. Millions of people are digging. down, deeper and deeper, into their graves.

Why? Because the things we eat, the things we drink are continually creating acid poisons in the system. When this acid becomes excessive, we get stomach distresses, dangerous acid Indigestion, sour stomach, wind, colds, headaches,neuralgiaorrheumaticpains.

It is dangerous to neglect this sit tan- tion. What you need at once is to ease the paja and neutralise this excess acidity..

Alka-Seltzer

is the cały pomedy of its kind that does exactly these two things two results accomplished· at one and the same time.

Dissolve one or two tablets of ALKA-SELTZER in a glass of water and drink it. Your pain will ense and your relief from distress will be amazingly quick and refreshing. Then in case, you make the error of over-eating or orat-drinking, ALKA-SELTZER will always come to your rescue. Try

le today. It is guaranteed to set- isfy you.

Alka-Seltser is not a laxative, You can take it as often as you

like, without inconvalence..
