Ever Salivated by
Calomel? Horrible!
Calomel is quicksilver and
acts like dynamite
on your liver
Calomel loses you!a day! You
know what calomel is. It’s mer
cury; quicksilver. Calomel is
dangerous. It crashes into sour
bile like dynamite, cramping and
sickening you, Calomel attacks
the bones and should never be
taken into your system.
When you feel bilicus, sluggish
constipated and all knocked out
and believe you need a dose of
dangerous calomel just remember
that your druggist sells for 50
cents a large bottle of Dodson’s
Liver Tone, which is entirely
vegetable and plesant to take
and is a perfect substitute for
calomel. It is gauranteed to start
your liver without stirring you
up inside, and can not salivate.
Don’t take calomel! It makes
you sick the next day; it loses
you a day,s work. Dodson’s
Liver Tone straightens you up
and you feel great. Give it to
the childreh because it is per
fectly harmless and does not
gripe.
The registration books of the
city of Bainbridge are now open
in the office of the Clerk. All
qualified voters are given notice
that the books will remain open
during the month of November.
