VERETAN HADTO
GET Up 5 TIMES
Has Been Taking Dreco One Week
and Last Night He Had to Get Up
Only Twice, According to His
Own Statement.

Il am a veteran "a years old and
for the past 40 years have been en-
ployed by the City of Macon, Ga A
man my age feels that he is pretty
well worn out when his kidneys 90
back on him and he has to get up
as much as eight times during the
night to relieve himself" SAYS Mr..
Newton Frazier who now resides on
Rural Route No. 3.
MY general health was much run
down and in addition to my kidneys
bothering me, / also suffered dailv
from constipation and my stomach
was very weak SO that most every
thing l ate disagreed with me. I
often had dizzy spells and my
nerves were very shaky and my sleep
was poor"
Il read almost every day in the
papers about the new medicine Dreco
and the good results Georgia people
were getting, so l got a bottle and
it went right to the spot for me
quick. When I had taken it only
week, l only had to get up twice
during the night; my constipation
was relieved; the dizzy spells have
gone; I am sleeping fine and gaining
strength every day. have Just
bought three bottles of Dreco and ex-
pect to take them all and firmly
believe I will be sound and well again.
Dreco is the best medicine I ever
came across in all my years and
think every person should know
about it."
What Dreco has done for this
old gentleman it can do for others
if they will just make up their minds
to get bottle today and start tax
ing it. All druggists sell Dreco and
it is strongly recommended in Am

Half Interest In
Coca Cola Once
Bought For $500

A TLANTA, August 21-The
Arecent sale of the soft drink
plant + Asa G. Gambler to New
York capitalists for $25, 100000
brought out story here today
to the effect that DR.. Hampden
osborne, who for a number of
years past was engaged in the
drug business in Columbus, Miss,
but who a short time ago remoV-
ed to Meridian, Miss, once had
a half interest in the concern
which he sold for $500.
According to this story, Asa G.
Gambler had in some way secur-
ed the formula for the beverage,
but when he attempted to increase
> his sales it was found that the
syrup soured so quickly that it
was impracticable to ship it any
considerable distance. DR.. Os-
borne is said to have added an in
gredient which acted as preserv-
ative and is also said to have been
given a half interest in the con-
Germ as a reward for his work.
He grew tired of waiting for prof
it's, however, and according to
Columbus, Miss, citizens who are
said to have secured their infor-
4nation from him, sold his interest
back to Mr.. Gambler for a beg
carly sum.
Had DR.. Osborne retained his
interest he would now have been
a multi-millionaire, instead of a
travelling salesman for a New Or
Jeans drug firm, which position
he now holds.

COUNTRY DISTRICTS SUFFER-

With hardly an individual exception,
former employees OF the Richmond
railroad shops. who have been on a
strike returned to work yesterday
morning. Speaking of the matter last
night Thomas B. Morton who. as
chairman Of the Richmond Shops Fed
Grafton, headed the local end of the
strike. said:
Everybody returned to work. It
was just as pleasant could be. There
was not a single ripple. The men
went in Just as quietly as they went
out"
Mr.. Morton stated further that yes
terday the local organization received
kilograms stating that all Baltimore
machinists who had been out had re-
turned, that the men of a number OF
shopmen OF the Mobile and Ohio. Mobile
shops along the Missouri and Pacific
had returned TO work and that the
Central and Georgia. and Chicago and
Indianapolis were again back in their
shops.

The Richmond committee informed
the Newport News men as to all fea-
lures OF the labor controversy and par
ticularly as to why the men should
return to work at this time. The con-
ference was held yesterday morning
and when the members OF the Richmond
committee left for home the Newport
News strikers had not reached a deci-
sion as what action they would take.
Practically all passenger and freight
service out OF Richmond was normal
yesterday, although there was still a
slight curtailment of service into the
city. All trains are expected TO oper-
ate on the old schedule today. whether
they are leaving or arriving.
Rural Communities Suffer.
The curtailment OF passenger ser
vice on the Chesapeake and Ohio dur
ing the strike caused as much If not
more Inconvenience at the country
places along the line as II did in Rich
mond. Citizens living in towns on the
main line did not receive their morn
ing papers until late in the after
noon. and in most places it was i'm
possible to receive a letter from Rich
lnond and reply to il the same day.
Many OF these country towns were
without ice for three days. and for
the same period their citizens were
without their customary supply OF
