WANT TO LOOK YOUNG ?

The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this you must
watch your liver and bowels
there's no need of having a sallow
complexion--dark rings under your
eyes-pimples-a bilious look in
your face-dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
frc m inactive bowels and liver.
Dr. Edwards. a wellknown ply.
sician in Ohio, perfected vegetable
compound as "a substitute for calo-
mel to act on the liver and bowels.
which he gave to his patients for
years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are
gentle in their action yet always
effective. They help bring about
that natural buoyancy which all
should enjoy by toning up the liver
and clearing the system of impur-
tiles.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are Known
by their olive color. 15c. soc, soc.
