COST: 1 ICE CREAM
SODA A DAY
If your doctor proscribed an ice cream soda a day for ten days to get yon out of a sick bed, you'd take your ‘medicine’ gladly . . . with little thought of its cost.
When figured on the basis of tha quantity of medicine the doctor asks you to take usury 24 hours, today’s prescription rarely costs you more than a daily ice cream soda. But it does something no ice cream soda can do. It cures disease
Today’s prescription is the biggest bargain in history.
