THE LAWTON CONSTITUTION
PACE THREE
BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands HaveDiscoveredDr.
Edwards'Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets—the substi-
tute for calomel—are a mild but sure laxa-
tive, and their effect on the liver is almost
Instantaneous. They are the result of Dr.
Edwards' determination not to treat liver
and bowel complaints with calomel. His
efforts to banish it brought out these little
olive-cr'.ored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the good
that calomel does, but have no bad alter
effects. They don't Injure the teeth like
strong liquids or calomel. They take hold
of the trouble and quickly correct It. Why
cure tlio liver at the cNpense of the teeth?
Calorm 1 sometimes plays havoc with the
gums. So do strong liquids.
It Is best not to take calomel, but to let
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, "dullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and a
disordered liver. Take l r. Edwards' Olive
Tablets when you feel "logKy" and
"heavy." Note bow they "clear"' clouded
brain and how they "perk up" the spirits.
At 10c ami 25c per box. All druggists.

Anyhow, there is some consolation
for the forty-year-old man in looking
at his t'.venty-year-old picture and
knowing he doesn't look like it now.
WATCH CHILD'S COUGH
Colds, running of nose, continued
irritation of the mucous membrane if
neglected may mean Catarrh later.
Don't fake the chances—do something
for your child! Children will not take
every medicine, but they will take Dr.
King's New Discovery and without
bribing or teasing. Its a sweet pleas-
ant Tar Syrup and so effective. Just
laxative erough to eliminate the
waste poisons. Almost the first dose
helps. Always prepared, no mixing or
fussing. Just ask your druggist for
Dr. King's New Discovery. It will
safeguard your child against serious
ailments resulting from oolds.
