There are none of the bad after-effects of calomel t) Hudson's Liver Tone and no dangjr of salivation. Fo; attacks cf constipation or bi 1 io-isnoss fine or two spoonfuls of this tnild, pleasant tasting vegetable liquid are enough and Norton Drug C gives a personal guarantee that every bottle will do all that- is claimed for it.
