MAYNARD TALKS
Says, "After Spending Lots of
Money | Found Relief
In Dreco."

Our bodies as well as our homes, re-
quire thorough cleansing and sanitation.
The headaches, dizziness, gas and bloat-
ing of the stomach. coated tongue, foul
breath, pains in back and limbs, general
rundown" condition or any OF the
symptoms Of sickness that you are ex-
periencing are Natures signals that the
organs OF the body need overhauling,
cleaning out, and toning up. These
outward signs are only the "eSects' and
there has to be an underlying cause"
There is no remedy on the market that
can accomplish this as well as Dreco,
the herbal system tonic. The action is
remarkable in all cases where the run
down system needs rebuilding, cleaning
out and toning UP, or where 1t is being
weakened by liver, kidney, or bladder
troubles.
Recent testimonials Of people right
here in Washington have proven that
this notable remedy has been rema rkably
successful as a tissue builder vitalizer,
and a builder-up Of wasted organs. Be-
low we print the signed statement of
a highly respected Washington citizen,
who has for ten years been employed
in the U. S. Navy Yard. He is Mr.
| ]. r. Stephenson, of 10 Fourth street
southeast, who says: For many years
l have suffered from Constipation Head
| aches, Indigestion, Biliousness, and could
not sleep well at night. After eating
would have a very uncomfortable fesl-
ing like I was bloated, and gas would
| form. My liver was very inactive and
I had spent lots of money on different
medicines trying to get relief from my
troubles, and finally decided to give
Dreco a trial, as 1t was being SO highly
| recommended by Washington people
who had used It. Right from the first I
seemed to improve. 1t relieved my in
digestion, headaches constipation and
made the liver take on new life. 1t also
put a stop to the bloating and gas in
my stomach. I now sleep fine and wake
up of mornings feeling refreshed and
full OF energy. I think Dreco a splendid
remedy and am glad to add my words
Of praise for it"
Dreco is purely vegetable, being an
extract from roots, herbs, barks and
berries from many medicinal plants. It
gives prompt relief In many cases and
continued use gives permanent results.
