BETTER THAU CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets the sub
stitute for calomel are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. These htlle olive
colored tablets are the result of Dr.
Edwards' determination not to treat
liverand bowel complaints with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the
pood that calomel does, but have no
Bad after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
Jhey take hold 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'

Vegetable Compound,
Danville, 111. "My daughter was
very delicate and we thought wo could
not raise her. bne
was troubled with
irregularity and she
was not able to go
to school. For a
year we gave her
all kinds of tonics
but to no good. One
day one of your little
books was thrown
on our porch and I
saw what Lvdia E.
Pinkham's V e g e -table
Compound had
done for others and what it might do
for her. Now she is getting fat and
goes to school every day. You can tell
every mother what the Vegetable Com
pound has done for mv daughter."
Mrs. J. H. Boyd, 1002 K. Jackson St.,

has neither the sympathy nor support of the overwhelming majority of railroad
employes.
