Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute.

Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the substi.
:utc 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 calomcL
His efforts to Danish it brought out these
little olivc-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the good
that calonel does, but have no bad after
effects. They don't ;njure the teeth like
strong liquids or calor1cl. 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. tits best not
to take calomel, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take it's place.
Most headaches, "duliness" and that
