Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds, coughs.

Until the liver is made thoroughly ac-

the treatment is the new, nausealess
calomel tablets called Calotabs, which
are free from the sickening and
weakening effects of the old style
calomel. Doctors also point out the
fact that an active liver may go a
long way towards preventing ipflu-
enxa and colds and is one of the most
important factors in enabling the pa
tient to successfully Withstand an at
tack and ward off pneumonia.
One or two Calotabs on the tongue
