Dr.. Edwards Olive Tatlats-the su5ssi.

laxative, and thc;r effect o.. the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the result
of DR.. Edwards determination not to treat
liver ami bowel complaints with caloEnei.
His efforts TO banish it brought out these
little oiNe-colored tablets.
These pleasan. little tablets do the good
that calonel does, but have no bad after
effects. They don't injure the teeth like
strong liquids CT calcrel. They take hold
of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why
cure the liver at the expense Of the teeth?
Calonei sometimes plays havoc with the
gums. So do strong liquids. 1t is best no,
to take calomel, but to let Dr.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
