GREAT RELIEF FOR
K0K0M0 MAN after
YEARS OF TORTURE
Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Gas in
the Stomach, Pains in the
Bowels, Heartburn and
Dizzy Spells Bothered Him.
ALL GONE NOW
''Dreco Has Put an End to
Them and | Feel Fine
Again." He Says.

'Ive had stomach trouble for over
two years and 1t seemed | could not
obtain relief, but fortunately | read
about Dreco" and now am one of it's
strongest boosters" said Mr.. Ezra NJ.
Warfield of 70S n. Bell ST., kokomo,
Ind.
while in the army these ailments
annoyed me very much. I'd fill up with
gas, which made me very uncomfort-
able; often had gripping pains and felt
like | was choking, yet / could not
swallow it down nor spit 1t out. My
back often ached and l was nervous
and couldn't sleep sound-would get
dizzy and have spots before my eyes.
One of my friends said Dreco would
90 me- good and he was right, for I've
taken two bottles and my troubles
have passed away. The gas does not
collect any more: my food seems to
do me good, giving me strength; pains
In my back, over my kidneys, are all
gone. My bowels act regularly and l
never have dizzy spell. Dreco brought
relief after other things had failed.
Dreco, the herbal tonic, aids the
stomach in digesting the food properly,
puts a stop to gas, strengthens the
Kidneys, rouses Sluggish liver: keeps
the bowels moving and overcomes
rheumatism and catarrh.
All good druggists now sell Dreco

GLADYS
(Copyright)

Though popular in the chorus and
frequently In use as the heroine OF
popuar fiction, where Gladys de Mont
morency was considered the heighth
of feminine elegance, Gladys comes
from a dignified old Roman family,
the Claulian gems. The Claudli gave
much fame In early Rome and figure
in most of the tragedies OF the city
and the Emperor Claudius, through
his conquests in Britain, spread his
name throughout Europe.
r The first feminine Claudia was the
daughter of a British prince who sent
her greetings to st. Timothy in St
Paul's epistle. The masculine form
Cladus or Gladus, as 1t was sometimes
Spelled, became popular in England
and was taken over by the Wesh, who
are responsible for the feminine
Gladys.
Gladys came to be considered the
equivalent for Claudia and rs such
was reverenced, but her name never
achieved the popularity of it's equ;va
lent because of its harsh sound
Though recognized as Gladys, it wa:
more often given in baptism as Clau
dia or Claude, as the French call It.
France rejected Gladys completely
preferring the softer Claudine ant
Claude, while Italy and Spain chose

FOR YOUR ACID:STOMACH.D J

Think of i'll Over 70 non-or-
ganic diseases get their start IN
an Acid Stomach. Too much
acid causes the food to pass on,
a sour, fermenting mass. This
sends poisonous germs and
harmful acids ali over the body,
instead of strength and life. You
might say-1t makes the body
sour" Day and night it goes
on, doing ceaseless damage.
Get rid of your Acid
Stomach. It's the first step to
good health. Eminent chemists
after years of work-have
found a harmless way to take
up and carry this excess acid
right out of the body.
This is the secret of the sue
cess of this wonderful remedy
called EATON1C. It takes
the acid up-carries it out

this painful disease

Victims of Rheumatism, that
most painful and torturing of all
diseases, feel that with the ap-
proach Of balmy springtime they
may expect some relief from the
pangs of suffering which they
have endured all winter.
And this is an excellent time
to get rational results from the
right sort of treatment for this
painful ailment. Just now the
system is ready to throw off the
impurities that have been &C,
cumulating throughout the win
ter season, and nature is ready
to help in the eliminating pro-
cess that is so essential in pre-
pairing the system for the chang.
