END LIVER TROUBLE
WITHOUT CALOMEL
UntrustwOrthy Drug, Thought to
Loosen the Teeth, Now Made
Absolutely Unnecessary.


DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the
substitute for calomel-are the mild
est but surest laxative known, 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. DR.. Edwards has been
calomel's uncompromising foe. His
efforts to Danish it brought out these
little olive-oil-colored tablets, a rare
combination Of vegetable compounds
mixed with olive oil. These pleasant
harmless little tablets do all 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. Why cure the liver
at the expense Of the teeth? Gallo
mel sometimes plays havoc with the
gums. So do strong liquids. It is best
not to take calomel at all, but to
let Olive Tablets take their place.
Most headaches, "dullness" and
that lazy feeling come from constipa-
tion and disordered liver. Take
Olive Tablets when you feel "loggy"
and heavy" Note how they clear"
the clouded brain and how they "perk
up" the spirits.
