I, A few years ago, men, women and
■Children took calomel for a sluggish
■Mver and for constipation. They took
■'risks when they did so, for calomel is a
■ dangerous drug. Your family doctor
■! will be the first to tell you this if he
Ij discovers you dosing yourself with
If calomel.
|j But the drug trade has found a
I cafer, more pleasant remedy than calo-
| me I in Ddoson’s Liver Tone.
I Crighton Drug Co. tell that their
I.1 drug store sells Dodson’s Liver Tone
! in practically every case of biliousness
j and liver trouble where calomel used
i to be taken.
f DodBon’s Liver Tone is a vegetable
Iter tonic that is absolutely harmless
for children and grown people. It
tells for 50c a bottle and is guaranteed
to be entirejy satisfactory by Crighton
Drug Co., who will refuqd your money
with a smile if it does not give quick
gentle relief without any of calomel’s
anpleasant after-effects.
