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

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets--thc SUBJ
stitute for calorncl-a7e mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They arc the re-
suit of Dr.. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints with
calomel. His efforts to Danish il brought
out these little olire-cotored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
GOOD that calomcl does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't iujure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomcl::
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, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
