ALL MY TROUBLES WERE OVEI-

Seaboard Air Line Foreman Could
Not Attend Business on Account OF
Dizzy Spells Caused by Stomach
Disorder-Now, He's Well and
Happy.
Nowadays people with any common
sense refuse to belive that indigestion
and other forms of stomach trouble
are incurable. There are so many iu-
stances, right here in this section.
where every day men and women
willingly come forward to testify that
they have found grateful relief even
in the most stubborn cases that it.
would really be hard to doubt their
word.
When one sSops to consider that
stomach trouble, no matter how slight
is apt to develop into other and more
serious organic disorders, such as
kidney and bladder disease, liver
complaint, acute constipation, etc., it
is not strange that hundreds are tax
ing advantage Of the grateful help
and curative powers which they find
in the famous root and herb medicine
I-Dreco.
Here is what ]. H. RADON, the well
known foreman for the Seaboard Air
Line, who resides at Blaney, s.. c., has
to say:
81 suffered from gastritis, head
aches and liver complaint. I often
had to stop my work on account os
the dizzy spells. I seemed to feel
miserable most of the time and didn't
have enough energy or ambition to
work hard.
"All my troubles have been over
come through Dreco. I took just one
bottle of Dreco and am glad to tell
my friends that it was just the thiHss
I needed. I am better in every way
and am grateful for this wonderful
medicine"
Dreco is purely an herbal medicine
for constitutional ailments arising
from the digestive tract. 1t has won
considerable praise in this section foi
it's prompt and efficient action in con-
stipation, rheumatism, catarrh and
similar ills.
Dreco is dispensed by modern drug
stores everywhere and is particularly
recommended in Newberry by Glider
& Weeks.

HAS NEGRO BLOOD
Douglas MCCarry Traces An
cestry of Mrs. Clara Dwyer
in Divorce Suit; Disputes
Her S0n-in-LaW.

Douglas McCarry, the father OF
Mrs. Clara Dwyer. was the star wit
ness yesterday in District Judge
Troup's court in the hearing of the
suit of Mrs. Dryers husband,
Francis P. Dwyer, to have their
marriage annulled on the ground
that negro blood flows in her veins.
The case was begun last Thurs
day. but continued because Mr.. Nc
Carry was not present. Judge Troup
announced yesterday that he would
give his decision in the case this
afternoon. Mrs. Dwyer and the
child were not in court.
He was the center of all eyes in
the crowded court room. A man of
very swarthy complexion, the front
half of his head bald, the back half
covered with straight grey hair.
He denied that there is any COL
ored blood in his veins. He testified
that his ancestry was as follows:
Traces His Ancestry.
Father, a politician in Mississippi,
postmaster of the city of Natchez
for four years and sheriff of the
county for ten years and a slave
holder.
Mother, a white woman, living
now in Washington, D. C., 1923 Co.
lumbia street. Her maiden name,
Matte Balfour.
Mothers mother, a schoolma' am
in Massachusetts,, who went south
to teach school.
Fathers father, a "red-headed
Irishman."
All other grandparents and great
grandparents pure white.
Opposed to this testimony regard
ing his being pure white, are the
following admissions OF Mr.. Nc
Garry:
He was cashier Of the Capital and
Savings bank, Washington, D. c., an
institution operated by colored peo-
pie for colored people.
He stated that he didn't remember
whether he had registered his name
as white" or "colored" in applying
for civil service position.
Attorney Yeiser for Mr.. Dwyer
asked Mr.. McCarry whether he
would consent to have his photo
graph taken to go in the record of
the case if it goes to the supreme
court. Mr.. McCarry said he would
not consent.
The testimony given by Mr.. Dwy-
