BETTER THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute. Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets the substitute for calomel are a mild but eure laxative, tad their effect on the liver is almost inatantaneouB. 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 Btrong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why 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 up" the epirita, 10c and 25c a box. All druggists.
