HOW DOCTORS
TREAT COLDS
AND THE FLU
First Step in Treatment Is a
Brisk Purgative With Cal
otabs, the Purified and Re-
fined Calomel Tablets that
Are Nausealess, Safe and
Sure.

Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds, coughs, sore
throat, and influenza can be depended
upon for full effectiveness until the
liver is made thoroughly active. That
is why the first step in the treatment
is the new, nausealess calomel tablets
called Calotabe, 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
20 a long way towards preventing influ-
enzu and colds and is one of the most
important factors in enabling the pa
tent TO successfully Withstand an at
tack and ward off pneumonia.
One or two Calotabs on the tongue
Mt bed time, with a swallow Of water
that's all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with your eating,
pleasure or work. Next morning your
cold has vanished, your liver is active,
your system is purified, and you are
feeling fine, with a hearty appetite for
breakfast. Genuine Calotabs are sold
only in original sealed packages. price
thirty-ffve cents for the large, family
package; ten cents for the small, vest
