1 ■BETTERTHAN CALOMEL' > Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute Jr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets —the substi- f tute for calomel —are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the result of Dr. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets. These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don’t injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. '' hy cure the liver at the expense of the teeth. Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. SO do strong liquids. '• It is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets take its place. Most headaches, “dullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a | disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets when you feel “loggy” and "heavy.” * Note how they “clear" clouded brain and how they “perk tip” the spirits. I At 10c and 25c per box. All druggists.
