EVER sAL|vATED BY
CAL0MEL? HORRIBLE!
CalOmel is quicksilver and acts like

Calomel loses you day! You

crashes into sour bile like dynamite
cramping and sickening you. Gallo
mel attacks the bones and should
never be put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all knocked out and
believe you need dose of dangerous
calomel just remember that your
druggist sells for so cents a large
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which
is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and Is a perfect substitute for
calomel. 1t is guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up
inside, and can not salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t makes you
sick the next day; it loses you days
work. Dodson's Liver Tone straight
ems you right up and you feel great.
