SICKENED BY CALOMEL
If you ever saw anyone made
sick by calomel you won’t want
anymore calomel yourself. There’s
no real reason why a person should
take caiomel anyway, when fifty
cents will buy a large bottle of
of Dodson’s Liver Tone a good
remedy that perfectly and safely
takes the place of dangerous calo
mel, which is only another form of
deadly and poisonous mercury.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is a pleas
ant-tasting vegetable liquid which
will start the liver just as surely as
calomel, and which has absolutely
no bad after-affects.
Children and grown people can
take Dodson’s Liver Tone without
any restriction of habit or diet.
The Newark Drug Co. sells it and
guarantee it to take the place of
calomel, and will refund your mon
ey at once if it fails in your case.
