put in it now can be taken out next

they are relatively cheap, for use

they are relatively scarce and

Greatly Helped by the New
Remedy, Dreco, Which Is

ACUTE LIVER TROUBLE
Pains in Her Back, Aching

aches and Stomach Trouble at
Last Overcome.

MY grand mother, who is 50 years
old, has suffered severely for the past
five years, and we had been unable
to find the right thing to relieve her."
are the words of Miss Jennie John
son, of 2021 North Ninth avenue. Pen
eacola, Fla Miss Johnson is a well
known and highly esteemed trained
nurse of long experience.
"She had stomach trouble, pains in
her back and limbs. and her joints
were extremely painful. She was so
nervous that she did not get much
sleep, and frequently had bad head
aches. She had an acute attack of in
flammation of the liver. and went to
New Orleans for treatment by a spe-
cialist, but did not seem to get more
than temporary relief. She tried
everything she heard of that might
give her relief, but without much
success.
Since taking two bottles of Dreco,
it is surprising how she has improved;
she sleeps well. the constipation Is
relieved. the pains in her back, limbs
and joints are most all gone. 1t is
wonderful how she is improving on
the treatment.
''Dreco surely must be Natures own
remedy, for it Is the first thing in five
years of trying that has given such
relief, and we are going to have her
take several more bottles, to make her
strong and well again"
For elderly persons Dreco has prov
en- its powers to restore the strength,
increase the appetite; induce sound
sleep; overcome constipation, rouse
the liver, give strength to weak kid
neys and relieve rheumatism and
painful Joints and muscles
All good druggists now sell Dreco
