BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets
are 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 tn result of DR..
Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the
good that 4calomel does, but have no
bad after effects. They don't injure 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. It is best not to
take calomel. Let DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets take it's 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. 15c and 3oc.

Health Wrecked Is Years says

today, thanks to the new aniii,ai
gland treatment, I feel practicaiiy

strength and vitality"
This is the remarkable statement
made by Mrs. Carrie E. Dickey OF
7414 Hermitage ST., Pittsburgh, fa''
when questioned regarding her eA-
perience with Glandex Compound
the new animal gland tonic, when
has suddenly attracted nation-Wlde
interest through the apparent mira
cles it is performing. especially In the
treatment of rum down conditions.
During the last few years." con-
unued Mrs. Dickey, my condltloIi

of my nervousness. Glandex Com
pound has certainly been of great
benefit to me and I gladly recon-
mend it to others who may be suffer-
ing as 1 once did"
Brings Almost Incredible Results
Reports, similar to Mrs. Dickey's,
are constantly appearing in ever-in-
creasing numbers of the remarkable
results brought about by this new
tonic. Weak, worn-out men and
women everywhere say that Glandex
Compound is not only valuable as a
health builder and nerve restorer, but
that it often. seems to bring back the
vigor and strength of youth.
The reason for these amazing re-
suits is that while other tonics treat
only the symptoms Of run down con-
dition, such sas thin blood, nervous
ness. loss OF weight, weaknesses, ETC..
Glandex Compound attacks the cause,
which in many cases is found to be
run down glands.
The reason so many of us grow
old at forty. and the reason men and
women become anamic and run
down is because our ductless glands
which supply a vital secretion neces-
sary to the proper building of our
billions of muscle and nerve cells, be-
come unable to do their work. So
to build them up, what could be more
natural than to go to life itself and
use extracts from the glands OF
healthy and vigorous young animals
to supply the substance needed. This
principle in itself is not new-pepsin,
which also comes from animals. has
been used for years in the treatment
of indigestion.
Glandex Compound contains ex-
tracts from the glands of healthy
sheep and cattle, combined with iron
and other health builders, and is
guaranteed to bring results that are
entirely satisfactory in very few
DAYS, or the money viii be refunded
GIandex Compound is sold by prac-
ticaliy all drug stores.-Adv.
