CONSTIPATION RELIEVED
Is Free From Rheumatism, Kid
ney Weakness, Sluggish Liver
and Nervousness, Since TAX
ing the New Remedy, DrecO.

For the past ten years I have suf-
fered severely from constipation. kid
ney and liver troubles, writes that
well known and highly respected lady,
Mrs. E. L. Taylor of 916 East DeSoto
street. Pensacola, Fla.
Il often had intense pains in my back
and limbs: frequent attacks of rheum-
atism of the muscles; was extremely
nervous and some nights 1 could
scarcely sleep at all; had no appetite
but simply forced myself to eat, know
ing 1 required nourishment to keep
up my strength, but even then my food
did not seem to do me much good, and
If 1 were not very careful what 1 ate
I'd have attacks of pain and gas in
my stomach afterwards. I frequent-
ly had dizzy spells which made every
thing suggested, trying to find relief,
without success"
Like a drowning man grabbing at
straws, 1 decided to try Dreco on a
chance of it's doing me good. The very
first dose helped me, for 1T soothed
my stomach, and at the end of the
first bottle, it was easy to see the
great change in my condition. The
pains in my back and limbs are about
gone; nerves are steady now. and talk
about sleeping, why the other morning
the alarm clock failed to awaken me.
My appetite is great, in fact I'm like
different woman, and strongly advise
everyone to give Dreco a fair trial, II
they are troubled as I used to be"
All good druggists now sell Dreco
and it is highly recommended. Adv.

Chattanooga's
Industries Facing
Serious Situation

CHATTANOOGA, Oct. 31.-Indus
tries of this city face crisis as re-
suit of the proposed strike of miners
tonight. Many Of the manufacturers
have only enough fuel to last week,
while others could operate for thirty
days. The effect on the lighting sys-
TENS is also disturbing, neither the
electric light or gas companies being
prepared for the strike. Coal yards
have enough fuel to last only a short
time. The miners at Soddy, Durham
and other places in this section have
publicly announced that they will lay
down their picks to a man tomorrow
at midnight and should the strike con-
tinue for any length of time industrial
paralysis would follow.

New Attack
by Villa Soon

MEXICO CITY, Oct 31.--Reports
say that Francisco Villa is ready to
launch his new campaign against the
Carranza government. Another re-
port says the rebel leader holds the
balance of power between Obregon
and Gonzales, rival military candidates
for the presidency to succeed Car,
rama.
1t is learned from these advices
that both Gonzales and Obregon have
made overtures to Villa and Gen
Flipe Angeles, Villas chief Of staff
to gain their support IN the preslden
tial campaign. Most Mexicans in thu
capital fear that if Oregon and Con
zales undertake to eight it out, re
gardless of the elections next August
Villa may have little difficulty IL
walking into Mexico City.
Luis Cabrera, minister of hacienda
has voiced this danger by urging tina
Carranza be maintained in the presi
dency indefinitely on the ground tha
any other arrangement would resul
in another revolution and further dis
rupt the country.
