There are but very few medicines
that have any permanently beneficial
effect upon real nervous dyspepsia,
because most medicines are made &c
ulgest your food art;fcialy instead OF
your stomach doing it. This treat
ment is wrong. Il helps but for the
time being and as long as you take it.
Nervous dyspepsia and gas is of ner-
,vous origin, which lnhabits the diges-
tive process and not a lack Of gas
trio :ilice. Upon this true me1,cal
fact very few medicines are prepar-
ed, and one of these few is Dreco,
the new herb-and-root medicine.
Why Dreco helps nervous dyspep-
sIa is easily understood when you re-
member that the digestive glands in
the stomach are operated by nerve
force, and Dreco contains natural m
gradients which urge these stomach
neves to action. This feature makes
Dreco an unusually successful rem
edy for the permanent relief of gas IN
the stomach and nervous dyspepsia,
where ordinary dyspepsia medicines
give but temporary relief after Il
meal

Dreco4 is harmless. It is easy TO
get pleasant to take. and its effec.s

drug stores in this section dispense
Dreco and it is particularly recon-
naended in Sumter by Sibert's Dru;

LIBERTY loan NOTICE.

10 The public:
a meeting OF The Executive Com
slittee OF the Fourth Liberty Loaf
Eampaign, iasld today, nescommst !,
tee being composed of the following:
&c. G Rowland, Chairman; Neill
sOsDonneIl, a. G.. Phelps, j. P. Booth.
Bland and G. A.. Lennon, the
following resolution was adopted ;tf-.
terra full discussion Of the conditions
attending th. Fourth Liberty ioaa
campaign:
That it is the sense of the commit
tee who are familiac with the tinan-
scial standing Of the citizens Of this
county. tfsat the names of all who dc
not subscribe to Liberty bonds in pro-
portion TO their means, or who do
not subscribe atssaI, be published in
the newspapers and regarded as slack
ers.',
IN accordance with the above reso-
luton it is therefore my duty as
chairman Of the Fourth Liberty Loan
campaign for Sumter county to notify
oar citizens that they are expected to
make sacrifices on their part and sub
scribe TO the limit Of their ability to
! the new issue Of Liberty bonds.
You are no doubt familiar with the
! fact that the allotment for Sumter
county Is heavily II. excess OF the
Third loan. From information have
been able to obtain up to the present
tirile it will probably be around
$3.50, 10000 and the time for raising
this amount has been cartailed from
Eve weeks to three weeks. The task
Imposed upon the patriotic commit
tees who are willingly sacrificing thci-
valuable time and ability is, there
fore, a heavy one and earnestly asa;
the citizens of Sumter county to bear
this fact carefully in mind and sub
scribe promptly so that our aliotnen
can. be raised at the earliest possible
moment. 1T must be done and it IS
going to be done.

If the state subscribes its full quota
in the campaign which opened this

have gone to the support of the gov
eminent in the sum Of $50. 500, 900 in
