If your liver gets lazy you need a
tonic, not merely a laxative for the
bowels. Many people take a simple
laxative when the liver gets sluggish
rather than take calomel, whioh they
know to be dangerous. But a mere lax-
ative will not start a sluggish liver.
What is needed Is a tonic that will liven
up the liver without forcing you to
stay at home and loose a day from
your work.
You have such a tonio in Dodson’e
Liver Tone. Dodson’s Liver Tone is
all that Is claimed for it, because the
druggists who sell It agree to hand
back the money with a smile, to any
person not satisfied with the relief
Dodson’s gives.
Dodson’s Liver Tone le a vegetable
liquid with a very plesant taste and is
a prompt and reliable remedy for
conetipation, bUliouenese, soar
stomach and torpid liver.
