Thousands Have Discovered
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute .
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets?the sub
stitute for calomel?are a mild Jjut sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
"almost instantaneous. These little olive
colored tablets are the result of Dr- _
Edwards' determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
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.
Ihey lake hold of the trouble and
qutfkly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
.^pmetimes plays havoc with the gums,
bo do strong liquids. It is best not to
take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards' Olive
Tablets take its place.
Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a

and remained there when the place
closed at night. After overcoming
