WHAT IS #
LAX-FOS
LAX-FOS IS AN IMPROVED CASCARA
A Digestive Laxative
CATHARTIC AND LIVER TONIC
Lax-Fos is not a Secret or Patent Medi
cine but is composed of the following
old-fashioned roots and herbs:
CASCARA BARK
BLUE FLAG ROOT n
RHUBARB ROOT A
BLACK ROOT 4 \
MAY APPLE ROOT f \
SENNA LEAVES
AND PEPSIN
In Lax-Fos the Cascara is improved by
the addition of these digestive ingredi
ents making it better than ordinary Cas
cara, and thus the combination acts not
only as a stimulating laxative and cathar
tic but also as a digestive and liver tonic.
Syrup laxatives are weak, but Lax-Fos
combines strength with palatable, aro
matic taste and does not gripe or disturb
the stomach. • One bottle will prove
Lax-Fos is invaluable for Constipation,
Indigestion or Torpid Liver. Price 50c.

Calomel is quicksilver and acts
like dynamite on
your liver.
Calomel loses you a day! You know
what calomel is. It’s mercury; quick
silver. Calomel is dangerous. It
crashes into sour hile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never be
put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish, con
stipated and all knocked out and believe
you need a dose of dangerous calomel just
remember that your druggist sells for
50 cents a large bottle of Dodson’s Liver
Tone, which is entirely vegetable and
pleasant to take and is a perfect substi
tute for calomel. It is guaranteed to
start your liver without stirring you up
inside, and can not salivate.
Don’t take calomel! It makes you
sick the next day; it loses you a day’s
work. Dodson’s Liver Tone straightens
you right up and you feel great. Give
it to the children because it is perfectly
harmless and doesn’t gripe.

The trouble is mainly in the liver, it is torpid. A
torpid liver allows impurities to accumulate in
the system which hamper every organ in the
body. The result is biliousness, low spirits, bad
digestion, a tired languid feeling, the head feels
dizzy, the appetite poor and the bowels irregular
—generally constipated. Herbine clears out all
bilious impurities, revives and strengthens the
torpid liver, tones the stomach and digestion and
restores regularity in the bowels. After the
system has been relieved of the impurities there
is an immediate improvement. Appetite returns,
the spirits rise, the mind clears of gloomy dis
couragement and everything looks bright and
cheerful. Try it.
