If your skin is yelloW-complex- ion pallid-tonguc coated-appetite poor-you have q bad taste in your mouth-a lazy, no-good feeling you should take Olive Tablets.
 Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets-a substitute for calonel--were pre- pared by Dr. Edwards after 20 years of study.
 Olive Tablets are a purely vcgc- table compound mixed with olive oil. Know them by their olive color.
 To have a clear, pink skin, bright eyes, no pimples, feeling of buoy ancy like childhood days you must get at the cause.
 Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets act on the liver and bowels like calomel- yet have no dangerous after effects.
 They start the bile and overcome constipation. Take nightly and note the pleasing results. Millions of boxes sold yearly. 15c, BOG, 60c All Druggists.
