CALOMEL
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes Into Sour Bile Making You
Sick, and You Lose a Days
Work

Calomel salivates! It's mer-
curry. CalomeI acts like dvna-
mite on a sluggish liver. When
calomel comes into contact with
sour bile it crashes into it, caus-
ing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy,
constipated and all knocked out,
just go to your druggist and get
a so cent bottle of Dodson's
Liver Tone. which is a harmless
vegetable substitute for danger
GUS calomel. Take a spoonful
and if it doesn't start your liver
and straighten you up better and
quicker than nasty calomel and
without making you sick, you
just 90 hack and get your money.
If you take calomel today
you'll be sick and nauseated to-
morrow; besides. it NAV salivate
YOU. while if you take Dodson's
Liver Tone you will wake up
feeling great, full of ambition
and ready for work or play. It's
harmless. pleasant and safe to
give to children; they like it. A
