BETTER THAN CALOMH
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub- stitute for calomel-are a mild but sure laxative. and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. Theselittle olive colored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints withcalomel.
 The pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel 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 its place.
