BETTER THAN CALOME[
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets
 are a Harmless Substitute

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub stitute for calomel-are mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. These little olive eolored tablets are tn result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
 The pleasant little tablets do the good that calon1cl does, but have no bad after effects. They dent injure the teeth like strong IsuiGs or calonnel. 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, It is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take it's place. -,
 Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets when you feel '1oSy" and heavy" They 'clear" clouded heain md "perk up" the spirits. l5c and BOG
