Mom had bunches of sayings such as this one based on a very popular and heavily advertised patent medicine. "He has more money than Carter has Little Liver Pills" and other variants are used throughout my childhood and right into my adulthood.
Of course, you must remember this is the same Mom who called the refrigerator the ice box.
glad we finally got rid of the party line...
