But as the old style cal- tl omel has some very unpleasant and 8' dangerous qualities physicians and 1* druggists are row recommending the al improved nausealess calomel, called hi "Calotabs" which is purified and re m fined from the sickening and dangerous effects and whose medicinal virtues are vastly improved. | One Calotab on the tongue at bedj time with a swallow of water,?that's ; all. No salts, no nausea nor the! slightest interference with your d^et, j pleasures or work. Next morning | ypur cold has vanished and your en-1 tire system is purified and refreshed | Calotabs are sold only in original sealed packages, price 35 cents. Your druggist guarantees Calotabs by refunding the price if you are not delighted.?Adv.
