BAD BREATH
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets Get

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the SUBJ
stitute for Calomel, act gently on the
bowels and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets. The pleasant, sugar-coated
tablets are taken for bad breath by all
who know them.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets act gen
tly but firmly on the bowels and liver,
stimulating them to natural action,
clearing the blood and gently purifying
the entire system. They do that which
dangerous calomel does without any of
the bad. after effects.
All the benefits of nasty, sickening,
gripping Cathartics are derived from
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets without
gripping, pain or any disagreeable effects.
DR.. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years of prac-
tice among patients afflicted with bowel
and liver complaint, with the attendant
bad breath.
@Olive Tablets are purely vegetable
compound mixed with olive oil; you
will know them by their olive color.
