I'VE TRIED Them
.ALL, But DREC0
DID THE WORK
Penna. R R. Baggageman for
Twenty Years Is Glad to
Give Credit to Dreco
for Its Splendid
Results.

Mrs. John Roulston, OF e23 Fifth street
n. e. recently volunteered the following
statement:
my husband has been for 20 years
a baggageman on the Pennsylvania
Railroad, running between Washington
and New York. His work and the hours
OF his run makes 1t impossible for him
| TO get his meals regularly, and the re-
nllts were about as bad a case of pains
IN. the stomach. gas, sourness, and slug
gish liver as ever heard of. in addition
to constipation. which nothing seemed
able to correct.
He tried many doctors. and took all
sorts of medicines. till the medicine cab
hnet would not hold the bottles any long
ler. but Mr. Roulston didn't seem to get
a BIT Of relief from any of them.
IT heard about Dreco, through a Wash
inKton lady I know. and thought I'd just
try n bottle anyway for my husband.
He took II, but must admit didn't have
much faith in anything to relieve him.
The second day after he started to take
Dreco he ate his meals and was entirely
comfortable afterward-no pain whatever,
ana no gas on the stomach. His liver is
active and normal again, and the consti-
patton condition seems to be almost en-
tireIy corrected.
AFTER the way I've seen him suffer,
ana the months that I've heard him COM
planning, I'm only too glad to say every
thing can for Dreco, for 1t surely has
made q well man out Of q mighty sick
one, and I'd like everybody to know Just
what It has really done"

GUARD RELEASE MAY
have JOKER" HIDDEN
Interpretation of Department Order
Differs Among Soldiers.

A Joker in the orders issued late
yesterday by the War Department re-
leasing from service all government en-
ployes in the National Guard was basis
for contention by officers of the District
organization last night that the present
ranks of the Third Regiment, District
militia, will not be seriously depleted
The order releases all Guardsmen en-
ployed by the government, the loss OF
whose services would seriously hamper
the bureaus Of those departments"
Opinion at headquarters Of the militia
In L street arrnory indicated that out Of
the 100 or more mihtiamen who are en-
ployed by the government. the majority
may not be withdrawn from military
duty, as 1t may be construed that their
services could be temporarily dispensed
with.
1t Is understood that the discharges
will be up to the government. and that
certificates will be mailed to the chosen
militiamen in the ranks who are needed
by the government now for more valu-
able service they can give At desk than
in the field.
No definite figures as to the number
Of government employees in the District
Guard were obtainable last night. These
will be compiled today from the indi-
Vidual company rolls.
Positive announcement that the Third
will proceed to Fort Myer reservation to-
morrow morning was made last night.
A detail of 124 men Is assigned to strike
camp today on the site where last sum-
mer the batteries and cavalry were en-
camped. This Is on the Fort Myer bar
racks side Of the Old Dominion car
tracks.
The Third will be under canvas and not
in Fort Myer barracks, As previously an
nounced.
II was reported that about 100 Of the
80 men mustered out March u had re-
ported for duty last night. This added
800 to the figure given out Sunday night.
The telegraph wires will be put into
out of the city. Addresses will be OBJ
; agency here, which volunteered to get the
Tiilitiamen jobs on their muster out.
.tThe Third Battalion OF the regiment
Convention Hall last night. They aided
the local police in preserving order.
A vanguard OF pacifists wearing arm
banners, Keep Out Of War" invaded the
vicinity OF Fifth and L streets late yes
terday afternoon, in preparation for the
meeting last night. Groups OF Guards
men were challenged in argument on the
subject of war or peace. They proved
unanimously the subjects of patriotism
and war. to save the country's honor, was
dear to their hearts. Violence was threat
ened on several occasions, but ncpcom-
missIoned officers interceded always and
the verbal olinches were broken.
