DODSON WARNS USERS OF CALOMEL Saya Drug Acta Like Dynamite on Liver and You Lose a Day's Work. There's no reason why a person should take sickening, salivating calo mel when a few cents buys a large bot tle of Dodson's Liver Tone—a perfect substitute for calomel. It Is a pleasant, vegetable liquid which will start your liver just as sure ly as calomel, but it doesn't make you sick and can not salivate. Children and grown folks can take Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is per fectly harmless. Calomel is a dangerous drug. It is mercury and attacks your bones. Take a dose of nasty calomel today and you will feel weak, sick and nauseated to morrow. Don't lose a day's work. Take a spoonful of Dodson's Liver Tone in stead and you will wake up feeling great. No more biliousness, constipa tion, sluggishness, headache, coated tongue or sour stomach. Your drug gist says if you don't find Dodson's Liver Tone acts better than horrible calomel your money is waiting for you. —Adv. Evidences of Income.
