WON'T MIND
Taking
Cod
Liver
Oil
THIS
WAY

c. o. d. Tablets present cod liver oil
to youth the form of dry, easily swal-
lowed tablet which leaves no unpleasant
or sickening taste in your mouth. All
the good qualities of the best Norwegian
Cod Liver Oil are contained in these
tablets and all the Objectionable qualities
of the oil are absent. These tablets excel
the plain oil in many ways, a few Of the
most important of which we list below.
C. o. d. Tablets are easy to take in
asmuch as they have no repulsive taste
or odor The plain oil Is very hard to
take because of its disagreeable odor and
taste.
c. o. D. Tablets never cause that rising
taste or gas such as very often follows
the taking OF the plain cod liver oil.
c. o. D. Tablets never upset the stom-
ach or disturb digestion. The continued
use of plain cod liver oil is certain to maui
seate the stomach and seriously retard
the processes of digestion.
C. o. d. Tablets not only possess all
the valuable principles of cod liver oil
but they also contain the Hypophos-
phites of Lime and Soda and sufficient
quantity of that gentle laxative, Licorice,
to carry off any excess of oil should you
take more of the tablets than your system
can assimilate.
c. o. d. Tablets are guaranteed to be
better in every way than pure cod liver
oil for the treatment of La Grippe, Weak
Lungs, Consumption, Pulmonary Com
plants, Wasting Diseases. Loss OF
Weight, General Debility, Nervous Weak
ness, Malnutrition and all other ALL
ments caused by an impoverished con-
dition of the blood. Sold in SOC and
