CALOMEL SALIVATES 1 AND MAKES YOU SICK. Acts Like Dynamite on a Sluggish Liver and You Lose a Day's Work. There's no reason why a person should take sickening, salivating calomel when 50 cents buys a large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone?a perfect substitute for calomel. It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid which will start your liver just as surely as calomel, but it doesn't make you sick and cannot salivate. Children and grown folk can take Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is perfectly 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 tomorrow. Don't lose a day's work. Take a spoonful of Dodson's Liver Tone instead and you will wake up feeling great. No more biliousness, constipation, sluggishness, headache, coated tongue or sour stomach. Your druggist says if y6u don't find Dodson's Liver Tone acts better than horrible calomel your money is waiting for you. "Gentlemen of the Jnry." The following men were drawn by l."
