BETTER THAN CAL0MEl
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
colored tablets are the result of Dr..
Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomei.
The pleasant little tablets do the
GOOD that calomel does. but have no
bad after effects. They don't iniure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
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, 1t is best not to
take caloneL Let DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets take its place.
Headaches. dizziness" and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a
disordered liver. Take Dr.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel "logy" and
heavy" They clear" clouded brain
and "perk up" the spirits.
