How to Use Alka-Seltzer as a Housekeeping Tool

Late during the 1920s, a local newspaper prevented its staff from getting influenza during an epidemic with a unique combination of baking soda and aspirin. The head of Dr. Miles Laboratories decided to put his best chemist on creating a product containing the two ingredients. This was the beginning of Alka-Seltzer. Little did they know that Alka-Seltzer could be used for other things besides medical treatments.
