Physicians Advising Their Patients
To Take Two.Grain Doses Of

Physicians are now advising their
patients to begin early in the Spring
taking occasional two.grain doses of
calomel. to keep the liver active and
the system pure and clean. Calomei
not only stimulates the flow of bile
but also acts as an intestine antisep-
tic. This gives the system the need

The safest and best way to take
calomel is in Axor Liver Tablets.
Each tablet contains exactly two
grains of pure calomel, combined
with vegetable ingredients which act
as purge, sweeping the calomel from
