PIMPLY? WELL, DON'T BE!
People Notice It. Drive Them Off
With Dr. Edwards' Olive
Tablets
A pimply face will not embarrass you
much longer if you get a package of
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets. The skin
should begin to clear after you have
taken the tablets a few nights.
Cleanse the blood, the bowels and the
liver with Olive Tablets.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are the
successful substitute for calomel—
there's never any sickness or pain after
taking them.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets do that
which calomel does, and just as effec
tively, but their action is gentle and
safe instead of severe and irritating.
No one who takes Olive Tablets is
ever cursed with "a dark brown taste,"
a bad breath, a dull, listless, "no good"
feeling, constipation, torpid liver, bad
disposition or pimply face.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil, you will know them by their
olive color.
Dr. Edwards spent years among pa
tients afflicted with liver and bowel
complaints and Olive Tablets are the
immensely effective result.
Take one or two nightly for a week.
See how much better you feel and look.
10c and 2oc per box. All druggists.
