CMIEL DYNAMITES
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes into sour bile, making
you sick and you lose
a day’s work.
Calomel salivates! It’s mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into it,
causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, consti
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get a 50 cent bottle
of Dodson’s Liver Tone, which is a harm
less vegetable substitute for dangerous
calomel. Take a spoonful and if it
doesn’t start your liver and straighten
you up better and quicker than nasty
calomel and without making you sick,
you just go back and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides,
it may salivate you, while if you take
Dodson’s Liver Tone you will wake up
feeling great, full of ambition and ready
for work or play. It’s harmless, pleas
ant and safe to give to children; they
like it.
