DAILY HABIT FOR
A PENSACOLA LADY
To Take Pills, Salts or Some Such
Medicine to Keep Her Bowels Nov
ing. Liver Was Very Sluggish;
Had Headaches and Dizzy
Since Taking DrecO, the Root and
Herb Juice Medicine, All These
Troubles Are Gone
"Hardly a Day Passed But What |
Had to Take Medicine to Keep
My Bowels Moving" Said Mrs.
A. Benson, OF 1911 East
Strong st., Pensacola,


SITOHk St.s ItuSdCOlu,
Florida
"For the past eight years I've been
o half-sick, dragging woman, with nc
energy to do anything, and I believe
il was all on account Of constipation
then the other troubles followed. My
liver got lazy and I became very bill
ious, having giddy spells; spots be-
fore my eyes, and bad headaches. My
back ached and could hardly attend
to my housekeeping
9 Asore spot cafe in my back, which.
if I'd happen to strike, would almost
cause we to faint. My nerves went
to pieces, and to get any sleep at all
I'd have to take a quieting medicine.
Things are so different now, for
Dreco has done me so much good :.
In few days my bowels began acting
regularly. and | haven't taken dose
of pills, calomel nor salts since. My
liver became active, which gave relief
from the headaches, dizziness and
spots before my eyes. My kidneys
seemed to be strengthened, and the
soreness and backache left me- !
sleep sound every night, and am gain
ing weight and flesh every day.
rity any woman suffering as is once
did, so hope when they read this, II
will be the means of bringing them
health and happiness
| Dreco is composed of the juices and
extracts of many different roots
herbs, banks and berries which act
on the stofach, kidneys, liver and
bowels, and purify the blood. II
relieves constipation, prevents gas
forming in the stomach, increases the
appetite, insures sound refreshing
sleep, banishes catarrh Of the heat
and takes the pain out of rheumati,
joints.
Dreco is now sold by all up-to-dat'
druggists throughout the country, an.
is highly recommended in Lakeland
by Red Cross Pharmacy.

RETURNED HEROES SPEAK
RIGHT UP IN AUSTRALIA

MELBOURNE, Australia Dec. 1.-
(By Mail )-The men who represent
ed Australia in the war are not going
to be bashful about asking for what
they consider their rights when they
get back.
An indication of what may be ex-
pected in this line is contained in de-
mands formulated by the Returned
Soldiers and Sailors Imperial league.
This organization has about $500
members. 1t demands:
That all property and money owned
by German born pearsons In Austria
liza be confiscated.
That returned men and dependents
of fallen men be freed from taxation
in income derived from personal ex-
ertion for years.
That men from the fighting forces
be selected to represent the common
wealth at the peace conference.
That fit men employed at home by
the defense department he replaced
by returned warriors.

This is the warning being sent

is opposed to spanking. and points out
that the alleged biblical authority SO

have been universal. They are now

Possibly shame prevents parents

according to the severity of the attack.
EXTERNAL AFFILIATIONS
In order TO stimulate the lining or
the air passages to throw off the
grip germ, TO aid In loOsening the
phlcgm and keeping the air pIacases
open. thus making the breathing eas
Ter, Nick's VapoRub will be found ef-
fective. Hot, wet towels should be
applied over the throat, chest and
back between the shoulder blades to
open the pores. Then NapoRub
should be rubbed in over the parts uh
til the skin is red, spread on thickly
and covered with two thicknesses of
hot flannel cloths. Leave the cloth
ing loose around the neck as the heat
of the body liberates the ingredients
in the form of vapors. These vapors,
inhaled with each breath, carry the
medication directly to the parts affect
ed, At the same time VapoRub is abb
sorbed through and stimulates the skin
attracting the blood to the surface,
and thus aids in relieving the conges-
ton within.
HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE
Evidence seems to prove that this
is n germ disease, spread principally
by human contact, chiefly through
coughing. sneezing or splitting. SO
avoid persons having colds-which
means avoiding crowds--common
drinking cups, roller towels, etc. Keep
lup your bodily strength by plenty of
exercise in the open air and good
food
| KEEP FREE FROM COLDS.
Above all, keep free from colds, as
colds irritate the lining of the air
passages and render them much bet
ter breeding places for the germs.
/ Use Vick's VapoRub at the very first
sign of coId.' For a head cold melt
a little VapoRub in spoon and in
hale the vapors. or better still, use
VapoRub In benzoin steam kettle. If
this is not available. use an ordinary

water, put in half teaspoon of Vapo.

Kettle Just slowly boiling and inhale
the steam arising.
NOTE: Vicks VapoRub is the
