Don’t Let Periodical Spells of Lazy
Liver Ruin Your Temper and
Spoil Your Work.
If your liver doesn’t behave right
all the time—if it sometimes stops
working and you become billons and
“headachy ”*-don’t take calomel, but
try Dodson’s Liver Tone.
You are safe in taking Dodson’s
Liver Tone. It’s a harmless, pleasant
vegetable remedy that starts the liver
without stirring up your whole sys-
tem as calomel often does. It is es-
pecially good for children who need a
liyer tonic once in a while, but who
should not bo dosed with strong drugs.
Dodson’e Liver Tone is sold by Pa-
lacios Drug Co. This store guaran-
tees It with a clean open and shut
guarantee—your money back with a
smile if it fails to satisfy you. Price,
60 cents a bottle, and your money is
as safe as if you had it in your pocket.
If you need the medicine you need it
badly—if it doesn’t satisfy you—your
money back. Buy a bottle from Pala-
cios Drug Co„ today under this guar-
antee.
