EVER SALIVATED by
CALONfEL ? HORRIBLE !
Calomel is Quicksilver and Acts Like
Dynamite on Your Liver.

Calomel loses you day! You
know what calomel is. It's mercury;
quicksilver. Calomel is dangerous
1t crashes into sour bile like dyna-
mite, cramping and sickening you.
Calomel attacks the bones and should
never be put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all knocked out and
believe you need a dose Of dangerous
calomel just remember that your
druggist sells for a. few cents large
bottle Of Dodson's Liver Tone, which
Is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and is n perfect substitute for
calomel. 1t Is guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up
inside, and cannot salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t makes you
sick the next day; 1t loses you q
days work. Dodson's Liver Tone
straightens you right up and you feel
great. Give 1t to the children be-
cause it Is perfectly harmless and
doesn't gripe.-Adv.
