The Remedy That Replaces Calomel
Causes No Restriction of Habit
Or Diet
It is a mistake to take calomel
when your liver Is lazy and needs
toning up. Hundreds of people, in
this section have discovered taat
Dodson's Liver Tone is a thousand
times better and safer and its action
is just as sure. There are, none of
the bad after-effects of calomel to
Dodson's Liver Tone and no danger
of salivation.
For attacks of constipation or bil
iousness one or two teaspoonfuls of
this mild, pleasant tasting vegetable
liquid are enough and the Seminole
Pharmacy gives a personal guarantee
that every bottle will do all that Is
claimed for It. Money back In any
case where it fails.
Dodson's Liver Tone costs only 50c
for a large bottle. Remember the
name because there are any number
of remedies sold In imitation of Pod
son claims. Some of them have names
very similar to Dodson's Liver Tone
and are In same color package. These
imitations are not guaranteed and
may be very harmful. Go to the Sem
inole Pharmacy and you will surely
get the genuine. apvebtisbmbnt
