calomel robbed
of ITS NAUSEA
Medicinal Virtue* Retained and Im
proved— Unpleasant -and Sicken
ing Qualities Removed. New Tab
let Called “Calotabs.”
The latest triumph of modern
pharmacy is a “de-nauseated” calo
mel tablet known to the drug trade
8S “Calotabs.” Calomel, the most
generally useful of all medicines thus
enters upon a wider field of popular
ly. purified and refined from those
objectionable qualities which have
heretofore limited its use.
In biliousness, constipation and iu
digestion, and a great variety of liver,
stomach and kidney troubles calomel
was the most successful remedy but
its use was often neglected on ac
count of its sickening qualities. Now
it is the easiest and most pleasant
of medicines to take. One tablet on
the tongue at bedtime with a swal
low of water, —that’s all. No taste,
no griping, no nausea, no salts. A
good night’s sleep and the next morn
ing you are feeling fine, with a clean
liver and a big appetite. Eat what
you please. No danger.
Calotabs are sold only in original,
sealed packages, price thirty-five
cents. Your druggist offers to re
fund the price as a guarantee that
you will be throughly delighted with
Calotabs. — (adv.)

Scorched!
It will happen at times under the eyes, even, of the most
responsible of housewives.
It may be an overheated iron, or momentary forgetfulness
—but the damage is done. The garment may be scorched
beyond all further usefulness. At the very least a mark is
left that no washing can ever erase.
Such scorching occurs in the home because irons must be
heated by fire and electricity that attain high temperatures
But it cannot take place when you send your Dry Cleaning
and Pressing to us.
Our presses are all heated by steam which never becomes
hot Enough to scorch. If you were to hold a gossamer silk
over the steaming spout of your hot water kettle, the
steam would not damage the fabric. We use the same
steam in our laundry.
With its help we are able to give a beautiful lustre to your
work with never a brown tinted scar to mar it.
We do your Dry Cleaning and Pressing this steam-heated
way if you send your bundle to us.
