CALOMEL DYNAM|TEs
4 SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes into sour bile, making
You sick and you lose
q days work.

Calomel sa1ivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a
sluggish liver. When calorlel comes
into contact with sour bile it crashes
into it, causing cramping and nausea.
If You feel bilious, headachy, con-
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get a bottle of
Dodson's Liver Tone for few cents,
which is a harmless vegetable sub
stitute for dangerous calornel. Take
a spoonful and if it do esn't start
yonr liver and straighten you up
better and quicker than ma sly calomel
and without making yo'a sick, you
just 60 back and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseatcd tom orrow; be-
sides, it may saiivate you, while if
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you
will wake up feeling q eat, full of
ambition and ready for work or play.
1t is harmless, pleasant and safe to
give to childre1x thev like it.

WONDERFUL STUFF!
LIFT OUT YOUR c0RNS
Apply . few drops then lift eorns or
ealluses of with fingero-
no pain.

No humbug! Any corn, whether hard,
soft or between the toes, win loosen
right up and lift out, without particle
of pain or soreness.
This drug is called freezone and is a
compound of ether discovered by q Gin
cinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for q small
bottle of freezone, which will cost but
q tride, but is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn or callus.
Put few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. Instantly
the soreness disappears and shortly the
corn or callus win loosen and can be
lifted of with the fingers.
This drug freezone doesn't eat out the
corns or calluses but shrivels them with
out even irritating the surrounding skin.
just think! No pain at all; no sore
ness or smarting when applying it or
afterwards. If your druggist don't have
freezone have him order it for you.
