FINDS RELIEF
FROM CATARRH
Was Always Trying to Clear n
''FrOg" From His Throat.
Breathing Was Heavy; Nos
trils Stopped Up, and Severe
Headache Only Thing to
Help Hin Was Dreco.

For years I've had a bad case Of
nasal catarrh, and tried all the RENEE
dies, and was treated by specialists,
but II remained for Dreco to knock 1t
out for me-" says Mr.. J. c. Gabbert, Of
Staun on. Va, who is superintendent
Of the CITY Electric Light Co.
i seemed to always have a dripping
into my throat from the back of mY
nose. and Was always trying to clear
out a frog My nostrils were stopped
up and y was breathing heavy. My
breath was foul and 1 often suffered
from headaches. 1 have tried about all
the cstarrh jellies. creams. powders
and sprays that any one uses. but they
did me no good at all.
"One day I read about what Dreco
did for bad case of catarrh, so I got
bottle. 1 have now taken three bot
ties and my catarrh is relieved; my
breathing is full and easy; no more
frogs in my throat, and the dripping
has ceased. My breath is pure and
sweet, and I have not had a headache
since 1 finished the first bottle. Tell
them all that Dreco will relieve their
catarrh."
Certain roots. herbs, barks and ber-
ries are known to act directly on ca
tarrh. Dreco seems to be the righ.
combination OF those herbs, from the
signed statement given by persons who
claim 1t has relieved them.
If you suffer from catarrh, begin
today on Dfeco. You can get 1T at all
