KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Big If You Know Dr. Edwards'
Olive Tablets
The secret of keeping young is to
feel young l —to do this you must watch
your liver and bowels—there's no ne«d
of having a sallow complexion —dark
rings under your eyes—ptmples—a bil
ious look in your fate—-dull eyes with
no sparkle.
Your doctor will tell you ninety per
cent, of all sickness comes from inac
tive bowels and liver.
Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetnble compound
mixed with olive oil to act on the liver
and bowels, which he gave to his pa
tients for years.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action, yet always effective.
They bring about that exuberance of
spirit, that natural buoyancy which
should be enjoyed by everyone, by ton
ing up the liver and clearing the sys
tem of impurities.
You will know Dr. Edwards' Olive
Tablets by their olive color. 10c and
25c per box. All druggists.

Says No One Need
Remain Thin Now
Physician's Advice for Thin, Unde
veloped Men and Women
Thousands of peoplo suffer from ex
cessive thinness, weak nerves and
feeble stomachs who, having tried ad
vertised tlesh-makers, food-fads, physi
cal culture stunts and rub-on creams,
resign themselves to life-long sUinni
ness and think nothing will make them
fat. et their case is not hopeless. A
recentty discovered regenerative force
makes fat grow after years of thinness,
aud is also unequaled for repairing the
waste of sickness or faulty digestion
and for strengthening the nerves. This
remarkable discovery is called SargoL*
Six strength-giving, fat-producing ele
ments of acknowledged merit have been
combined in this peerless preparation,
which is endorsed by eminent physi
fians and used by prominent people
everywhere. It is absolutely harmless,
inexpensive and efficient.
A month's systematic use of Sargoi
should produce flesh and strength by
correcting faults of digestion and liv
supplying highly concentrated fats to
tlie blood. Increased nourishment is ob
tained from the food eaten, and the
additional fats that thin people need
are provided. G. A. Gorgas and other
leading druggists supply Sargol and snv
there is a large-demand for it.
While this new preparation has give#
splendid results as a nerve-tonic and
vitalizer, it should not be used by nerv
ous people unless they wish to gain at
least ten pounds of flesh.—Adv.
