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

: DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets-the
substitute for calomeEare a mild but
sure laxative, ard their effect on the
liver is'aImost instantaneous. They
are the result of DIR. Edwards deter
mination not to treat liver and bowel
complaints with calomel. His efforts
to Danish 1t brought out these little
olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no
bad after effects. They don't injure
the teeth like strong liquids or calo-
mel They take hold of the trouble
and quickly correct it. Why cure the
liver at the expense of the teeth?
caIomel sometimes plays havoc with
the gums. So do strong liquids. II is
best not to take calomeI, but to let
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets take it's
place.
