Get Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets That is the joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced 01iv Tablets, the substitute for calomel. Dr. Edwards, a practicing physician for 17 years and calomel s old-time enemy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic constipation and torpid livers. Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, but a healing, soothing vegetable laxative. No griping is the "keynote" of these little sugar-coated, olive-colored tab Jets. They cause the bow els and liver to act normally. They never force them to unnatural action. If you have a "dark brown mouth" bad breath a dull, tired feeling sick headache torpid liver constipation, you'll find quick, sure and pleasant re sults from one or two of Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets at bedtime. Thousands take them every night jmt to keep right. Try them. 10c and 25c. NEW HAIR after BALDNESS IF YOU ire lofknc hilr. ha dandruff, or r failJ, In It bft kminn tint K0TALK0. mniaiu.
