BETTER mi CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute
I)r. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—the sub
stitute for calomel —are a mild be. 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. They take
held 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.
Headaches, “dullness" and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a
disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards’
Olive Tablets when you feel "logy” and
“heavy.” They “clear" clouded brain
and “perk up’’ the spirits. 15c and 30c.—

TURN HAIR DARK
WITHSAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur It
Darkens so Naturally
Nobody can Tell.
The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked
and faded hair is grandmother’s recipe,
and folks are again using it to keep their
hair a good, even color, which is quite
sensible, as we are living in an age when
1 a youthful appearance is of the greatest
I advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don’t have the
troublesome task of gathering the sage
nnd the mussy mixing at home. All
drug stores sell the ready-to-use pro
duct, improved by the addition of other
Ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound." It is very popular
because nobody can discover it has been
applied. Simply moisten your comb or a
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by.morning the gray
hair disappears, but what delights the
ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur
Compound, is that, besides beautifully
■darkening the hair after a few applica
tions, It also produces that soft lustre
and appearance of abundance which is
so attractive.—Advertisement.

many years; then he sustained a bad
double rupture that soon forced him
