paper about Dreco, got bottle.
Remember, before she started on
Dreco she had been in bed a month
and was nearly helpless.
"Today my wife Is out of bed and
going all over the place; hungry
all the time; all the swelling gone
from her back and side; not trou-

Dreco acts ON the liver, gives
strength to weak kidneys, produces

are so entirely changed from a war to
a. peaceE basis that the former appro-
priations are not applicable To- the pres
ent conditions. This, IT IS believed, will
make necessary sntir9ly new apropria-
ton bills, requiring considerable time
for their elaboration.
The fact that. the transport George
Washington has been ordered to proceed
to Brest has given rise TO the suggestion
that it was the situation at home, rather
than in Europe, which might require the
early return of President Wilson to
America. But, according to the view of
those in the confidence of the Presi-
dent, his physical presence in Washing
ton is not essential to the meeting of
congress. or until the end of June, when
the appropriation bills will be ready
for his signature. It is contended that
the call for an extra session can be lis
sued here and that the work of the new
congress can proceed without the Presi-
ident s attendance.
It is pointed out that presidents had

to assemble in perfect organization by

the usual period for assembling, but il
Is not known that it will prevail, for
while the President is listening to these
counsels, he has given no intimation OF
the course he intends to pursue.
