Be Better Looking—Take
Olive Tablets
If your skin is yellow—complexion
pallid—tongue coated—appetite pdor—
you have a bad taste in your mouth—
a lazy, no-good feeling—you should
take Olive Tablets.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets—a sub
stitute for calomel—were prepared by
Dr. Edwards after 17 years of study
with his patients.
Dr. Ed wards'OliveTabletsare a purely
vegctablecompoundmixedwitholiveoil.
You will know them by their olive color.
To have a clear, pink skin, bright eyes,
no pimples, a feeling of buoyancy like
childhood daysyoumust get at the cause.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets act on the
liver and bowels like calomel—yet have
no dangerous after effects.
They start the bile and overcome con
stipation. That's why millions of boxes
are sold annually at 10c and 25c per box.
All druggists. Take one or two nightly
and note the phasing results.
