If your skin is yellow-complexion

you have bad taste in your mouth-a
lazy, no-good feeling-you should take
Olive Tablets.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-a sub
stitute for calomel-were prepared by

with his patients.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil. You will know them by their

childhood days you must get at the cause.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets act on the
liver and bowels like calomel-yet have
no dangerous after effects.
They start the bile and overcome con-

are sold annually at 10c and Csc per
box. All druggists. Take one or two
nightly and note the pleasing results.

take teaspoonful of pure BISURATED
magnesia in half a glass of hot water
Immediately after eating, they would soon

ton Of these words a we'll known New

stomach trouble are due to stomach acid-

Of the stomach combined with an INSULT

water increases the blood supply and
BISURATED magnesia instantly neu-
tralizes the excessive stomach acid and
stops food fermentation. the combination
of the two, therefore, being marvelously
