Every druggist in town?your
druggist and everybody's druggisthas
noticed a great falling-off in the
sale of calomel. They all give the
same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone is
taking its place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people
know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone
is perfectly safe and gives better results,"
said a prominent local druggist.
Dodson's Liver Tone is personally
guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle costs 50
cents, and if it fails to give easy relief
in every case of liver sluggishness
and constipation, you have only
to ask for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasanttasting,
purely Vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults,
lake a spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or constipat-.
