Calomel is a
Dangerous Drug
Next Dose ma< Salivate You,
Loosen Teeth or Start
Rheuma~tism
Calomel is mercury; quicksilver. It
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never be
put into your system.
if you feel bilious, headachy, consti
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get a bottle of Dod
son's Liver Tone for a few cents which
i a harmless vegetable -substitute for
dan-gerous calonel. Take a spoonful and
if it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
Ihan nasty calomel and without making
you sick, you just go back and get your
Ioney.
Don't take calomel! It makes you
sick the next day; it loses you a day's
work. Dodson's Liver Tone straightens
you right up and you feel great. No
salts necessary. Give it to the children
because it is perfectly harmless and can
not salivate.
