This digestive aid knows when to stop! Jae: 'O relieveafter-dinner distress, many people takealkalies likesoda bicarbonateand prep- arations containing it. And they get the relief they want, because these chemicals neutralize the acidity that usually causes indigestion, heart-burn and flatulence. But the drawback to alkalies of this class is that they don’t know when to “call ita day.” After they overcome the hyperacidity, they keep right on working. Unless you know ex- actly the right amount to take, they are apt to alkalize the contents of the stomach. And that is a great handicap to normal diges- tion, for the stomach should be slightly acid (1-5 of | percent) properly to perform its work. Gastrogen Tablets are free from this objection The commendable thing about Gastrogen Tab- lets is that no matter how many you take, they do just one thing—neutralize the acidity that causes your discomfort. Then they stop. They can’t possibly alkalize your stomach. Any ex- cess that you might take simply passes harm- lessly and unchanged through the system. So, next time you feel uncomfortable after eating, try Gastrogen Tablets. They are mild, effective and 100 per cent harmless. They quickly quell digestive disturbance—within 15 to 20 minutes. They are aromatically pleasant to taste, and they are surprisingly good for sweetening the breath.

Good day.” Mr. Dough growled without look- ing up from his morning mail. “Now watch me closely,” con- tinued the salesman as he struck a dramatic pose and pulled the plunger of the extinguisher. A yellow liquid shot out and settled in a dirty looking puddle on the morning mail. Mr. Dough leaped quickly aside and the salesman smiled in sed way. Lesson No. 1 in his school of salesmanship was to get the attention of the prospect. “Observe,” he went on, “that the liquid will dry, leaving your papers unstained.” Mr. Dough jabbed feverishly at the buzzer on his desk. “You're the fifth salesman ge “T threw the office boy down stairs,” the salesman remarked pleasantly. “Now with your per- mission we will continue the nm. You cannot fail after seeing it. I will now set fire to your waste basket.” “Stop!” cried Mr. Dough, who was by this time only the s! husk of what had been a “How many do I have to buy before I can go back to my work?” —Watter Hotmes 22 comicbooks.com
