SAYS DRINK WATER IF YOU WISH
TO GROW FAT AND PLUMP.
Thin Men and Women, Do You Want
to Get Fat and be Strong?

The trouble with, most thin folks
who wish to gain weight is that they
insist on drugging their stomach Or
stuffing it with greasy foods, rubbing
on useless "flesh creams or following
some foolish physical culture stunt,
while the real cause Of thinness goes
untouched. You cannot get fat Until
YOUR digestive tract properly assinil-
ates the food you eat. Drink a glass
of cold water four or five times day
and take the following preparation
known to reliable druggists almost
everywhere, which seemingly embodies
the missing elements needed by tae
digestive organs to help them convert
food into rich. fat-laden blood. This
preparation is called tonoline, ard

Results She Obtained From New
Herbal Medicine.-She Gains Five
Pounds.

"Dreco has done more for me than
any other medicine I ever took in all
my 65 years of life,'' declares Mrs

ly esteemed resident of 1112 East 11th

Life was a constant misery to me
on account of stomach trouble, rheu-

2 constant hiliousness. I had terri
Bile dizzy spells which made me help
less for the time being and altogether
I was in a terrible condition. I had
been reading in the newspapers so
much about what this new herb mec-

Dreco acts like magic in stomach
trouble, gas fermentation, dizziness,
bloating, rheumatism and liver dis

conditions of the organs and restores
them to normal health and strength.
Dreco is dispensed by best drug
stores everywhere and is particularly
recommended in Newberry by Glider
and Weeks.
