The pleasant little tablets dothegood that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like etrpng liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc withthegums. Sodo strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets take its place. Most heHaches, "dullness" ana that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver.
