Says DR.. Edwards, WeiI-known Ohio
Physician.
DR.. F. M. Edwards for II years
treated scores of women for liver and
bowel ailments. During these years
he gave to his patients a prescription
made of a few we'll known vegetable
ingredients mixed with olive oil, nam
ing them DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets,
you will know them by their olive col
or.
These tablets are wonder-workers
on the liver and bowels, which cause a
normal action, carrying off the waste
and poisonous matter that ones sys.
tenn collects.
If you have a pale face, sallow look
dull eyes, pimples, coated tongue
headaches, listless, no-good feeling
all out of sorts, inactive bowels, you
take one of DR.. Edwards Olive Tab
lets nightly for a time and note the
pleasing results.
