Try as YOU will, after an application

time. The effect is immediate and
amazing hair will be light, fluffy

abundance; an Incompatible lustre,
softness and luxuriance, the beauty and
simmer Of true hair health.
Get 25cent bottle of Knowlton =
Danderine from any drug store or toilet
counter, and prove that your hair is as
pretty and soft as any-that it has
been neglected or injured by careless
treatment. 4 25-cent bottle will double
the beauty of your hair.-Advt.

THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
stitute for calomcl-are 4 mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit Of DR.. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints with
calomel. His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
good that caiomel 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? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
take calomel, hut 10 let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, dizziness and that
lay feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards
Olive Tablets when YOU feel doggy" and
heavy" Note how they clear" clouded
brain and how they "perk up the spir-
