The makers of Alka-Seltzer bring you love and abner. You know friends, I think one of the big reasons why so many of you enjoy these broadcasts
is because, well, life down in Pine Ridge is so quiet and peaceful. So different from the life many of us are forced to live these days. We hurry to work in the morning. We hurry through our work during the day and we hurry home at night.
We hurry through dinner. Then we hurry out for the evening to get some relaxation. I'd say it's no wonder that headaches, nervous indigestion, and other minor stomach upsets are so common these days. Now, if you're one of these folks who's always on the go, I hope for your sake that you're acquainted with Alka-Seltzer.
If you are Alka-Seltzer-wise, you already know how quickly and pleasantly it offers relief. And if you don't know from experience how helpful Alka-Seltzer can be, don't put off trying it any longer. Take Alka Selser for headaches, for nervous indigestion, distress after meals, muscular aches and pains and fatigue, and morning after misery.
You'll feel better fast. Never be without a package of Alka Selser tablets in your home and at your place of work. Get it at any drug store. And now, let's see what's going on down in Pine Ridge.
