Salvation Lady
Couldn't Drink
Any Cold Water
Greensboro Worker Tells
How Dreco Wiped Out
Stomach Trouble.

Everyone knows that to live vs
must have food. Food is the fuel
that Keeps the human furnace burn
ing. Stop eating and the tires of life
will soon die out. It is any wonder
then that when the system is not be-
"s properly fed a person becomes
thin, pale, listless, run down and the
days work becomes a drudgery. It is
worse than useless to try to tempt the
appetite with delicacies IL The stomach
is unable to digest the food it receives
Most boldly ills can be traced to
just this course. The stomach is out
of order and the other organs, tissues.
and muscles are not receiving the nee
essary food to build UP the ravages
of the day. The result is these organs
tissues and muscles become weak, op-
ening the door to kidney trouble, con-
stipation, rheumatism and host OF
distressing complaints. These disor-
ders can be relped only by treating the
cause, the stomach.
'I have suffered 20 years with pain"
in the limbs, and rheumatism" says
Mrs. France Cox who is perhaps ono
of the most generally known and best
loved ladies Of Greensboro..s Salvation
Army in a signed statement just
made for publication.
II couldn't even drink cold water,
she continues, ''as it would sour and
Dome back up hot as fire. All my
troubles are very much benefited now
because I have taken that wonderful
new herbal medicine called Dreco.
"Dreco surely has done me lots of
good and want three more bottles"
Dreco, the medicine mentioned by
Mrs. Cox, is a compound Of the juices
extracted from roots, herbs and ber-
res, natures own remedy for natures
own remedy for natures ills. Hun
dreds of testimonials like the above
are coming in all stating that Dreco
seemed to so direct to the seat Of
the trouble and to wipe out aches and
pains
If you are suffering why not go or
send at once FOR bottle Of this won
derful medicine? Surely it is worth q
trial.
Dreco is sold by almost any we'll
stocked druggist and may be secured
in Lexington at Geiger Drug Co.

WALTER |. NAUMAN
dies OF pneumonia
IN ALABAMA CAMP
Prominent Young Business Man Falls
In Prime Of Life Victim to
PneumOnia-Was In the Ser.
vice Of His Country.

A message was received here this
morning announcing the death Of Ser
geant Walter l. Nauman yesterday af-
tcrnoon at 4:30 o'clock at the base
hospital, Camp McClelland, Admission,
Ala. His father, mother and wife were
at his bedside when the end came.
Sergeant Nauman entered the SER
vice Of his country on May 20, 1918,
and had been stationed at Camp Nc
Clelland for several months. He had
recently undergone successfully two
surgical operations but shortly after
Ills apparent recovery from the last
operation he contracted influenza
which later developed into pneumonia.
The announcement Of Mr.. Nauman's
death in Maysville this morning
caused great sorrowing among hun
dreds of his friends and acquaintances
for there were few young men in
Maysville more popular. Besides po-
sessing fine character which was adj
mired by everyone, he was a young
man of bright future. A self made
young man who in a few years had
built up one Of the best grocery busi-
nesses in the city and who was re-
spected and honored because of his
hustle and straight forwardness, his
death is a great loss to the community.
Maysville can i'll afford to lose such
young men as Walter Nauman for they
are rare.
Besides his wife Mr.. Nauman, who
Is about 25 years Of age, is survived
by his father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles E. Nauman, of this city, four
sisters, Misses Helen, Stella anG
Freida Nauman and Mrs. w. o. Davis,
all Of this city, and three brothers
Charles E., Jr., of Huntington, w. Va.
Richard L.. now in France with the
colors and Ernest, Of this city.
The remains will be brought to
Maysville on c. & o. Number Four Sat
urday evening and arrangements for
the funeral will be announced later
| Besides being successful young
business man, Mr.. Nauman was in the
best sense Of the word Christian
gentleman. His Christianity extended
beyond the walls of the church in
which he worshiped and was plainly
Visible through his every day life. Ev.
cry one honored him for the sort Of
life he lived and it can be truly said Of
him that his candle was not hid under
a bushel but 1t so shined that all who
came in contact with him cnuld sat
and read him.
He was member Of the !Thir(
Street M. E. Church and also mem
Der Of the local Masonic fraternity.
He was successful business man
a dutiful son, good brother, a tru,
Christian gentleman, a patriotic sol
dier and splendid example for tn,
young manhood Of the community.
The entire city mourns with tn
loved ones the loss of a truly goo,
man.
