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

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the substi.
tute for calomel - are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the result
Of DR.. Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
His efforts to Danish it 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 calomel. 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. tbs best not
to take calomel, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, "dullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver Take DR.. Edwards
