CALOMEL SALIVATES
AND IK (00 SICK
Acts like dynamite on a sluggish
liver and you lose a
day’s work.
There’s no reason why a person should ;
take sickening, salivating calomel when
50 cents buys a large bottle of Dodson’s
Liver Tone—a perfect substitute for cal- ;
omel.
It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid which ;
will start your liver just as surely as
calomel, hut it doesn’t make you sick and
can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is per- I
■otly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug. It is
icroury and attacks your bones. Take
dose of nasty calomel today and you
ill feel weak, sick and nauseated to
iorro\v. Don’t lose a day’s work. Take
spoonful of Dodson’s Liver Tone in
tern! and ' on will wake tip feeling great,
o n - re biliousness, constipation, slug
s' n -s. hodache, coated tongue or sour
oninch. Your druggist says if you
•n’t find Dodson’s Liver Tone acts bet
r than horrible calomel your money is
liting for you.
