You Too, May Say "Good-bye' To III Health, Misery and
 Pain, Says Dreco Man

In talking with the man at Jacobs pharmacy, he said it Wa remarkable how many people were ill., some of them are not really sick, but weak; nervous all run down; some can hardly get about for weakness; some think they have dys- pepsia, others kidney, liver and bladder trouble. Many cant sleep at night. Then some feel tired and drowsy after every meal, again others have high blood pressure. fat some irritable, nervous, eX- citable, and all lack of vim, vitality. en- ergy and ambition; many take stimu- lants, strychnine, iron, nux vomiea, ar senic, pepsin, digestion aids, cathartics, mineral salts, castor oil and other strong drugs which whip up the system for the present at the expense of the future. All this is foolish and unnecessary. A table spoonful of Dreco at meal times will fix these troubles completely in sort order. Just try it for few days and see if you can't do your work twice as easy and walk twice as fast without tireing.
 If you are ailing all the time, try Dreco fairly, just once. No matter what others may say, what claims they may put for ward, we have the proofs, and they are here among your own home people. Pso-

 l am told that the apartment that has been prepared for the Ramsays in Paris is going to be very charming, and great deal of the beautiful furniture and lac quer that was among the wedding pres ents is being sent over to adorn their home. Lady Patricia inherits from her mother, the late Duchess of Connaught, a taste for antique furniture and fine cid lacqued. The late duchess was a keen furniture collector and when the duke had his Irish command they managed to pick up a quantity of old satin- pod furniture in Dublin, as we'll as some valu- able old mahogany of the Chippendale period. l am told that one of the Duke of Connaughts special hobbies is the col lection of glass.

This neighbor of royalty, Miss Stewart Fraser, has a mania for glass and she has ali entire tea set and dinner service made or old Irish glass, that has been handed down for generations in her family.

CAN GERMANY PAY
 FOR WARS COST ON
 FIGURES OF ALLIES?
If She Pays in Manufac- tured Good Is Will It Not Cause Serious
 Injury?
By MAJ. BRYAN COOPER


 Paris, March 12.--lt is common grounG among the allied powers that Germany is to be compelled to make such reparation as lies in her power to France Belgium. Italy and Serbia for the devastation that she has wrought in their territory. The powers that have been longest engaged in the war, such as France and Great Britain, also hope that she may be forced to contribute something in the nature of an indemnity to help liquidate the heavy burden of debt incurred by these countries during four years of hos- tilities. The justicb of this claim seems incontestable. German aggression forced war on Europe; Germany by military preparedness and interruptions violation of treaties succeeded in having the war waged outside her own territories. The blame for all the copious waste of blood and treasure lies Oh her shoulders She should pay the price of her crime; but can she?

 The Dreco man says no matter how skeptical you are, he invites you to come in to see him. He invites you to try this medicine just few days and watch the results. He wants to tell you the names of some of the people who suffered just the same as you are now suffering now, perhaps. He says some of those people may be known to you personally; they may be near neighbors of yours, people whom you may see walking on the street any day, perfect pictures of health. Ana they acknowledge they owe it to Dreco.
 Stop in and see the Dreco man at Ja- cobs' pharmacy. Give him fair chance to explain this medicine to you. You'll not regret it,

Princeton students are confident of
