SIMPLY GETTING
ALONG FINE NOW"
Richmond Man Was Badly
Rundown and Very Nerv-
Gus - Tells How Dreco
Built His Body and Health,

Mr.. Robert Gresham, living at Al
West Sixth street, Richmond, Ind,
has a message for every man and
woman who suffers from stomach dis
orders, nervousness, constipation, dir
zy spells, and general rundown condi.
ton of the system. 1t is interesting
reading. Here it is:
Stomach trouble was undoubtedly
the cause of my suffering. l suffered
all the pains of indigestion after
every meal. | also was constipated
and had bad dizzy spells. l couldn't
sleep at night and was always very
nervous. OF course l became greatly
rundown, and things looked pretty
black for me, but l heard so many
people speak highly fthe new herb
remedy, Dreco, and l saw 80 much
about it in the newspapers, that l de-
cided to give it a trial | took just
one bottle of Dreco, and it did wonders
for me; | have never seen its equal,
One dose of it buoycd me up wonder
fully; l am taking it right along, and
l am simply getting along fine, now.
You can add my recommendation to
the hundreds of others"
Dreco has time and time again
proved its worth in all human all
ments, which had their inception in
the digestive tract. 1t seems to be
just the right thing for such ailments
as indigestion, gaStritis, dyspepsia,
biliousness, constipation, sleepless-
ness, headaches, rheumatism and sim,
liar ills. Dleco is not a new tangled
patented medicine. 1t is simply a
combination of roots and herbs put
up according to an old fashioned
recipe, in a modern, scientific way
1t contains no dangerous mineral
salts, or acids, and is safe and sure
in its action.
Dreco is now sold by all good
druggists and is highly recommended

SAFE kNAESTHETlC
INVENTION CLAIMED
BY SOVIET HOSPITALS
(By Associate: press)


PARIS, Dec. Am anaesthetic with
relatively no danger and pleasant to
take is said to have been produced
and used in the hospitals of Soviet
Russia. DR.. Marcou, once an inferno
of the Paris hospitals, describes the
process in an article written for
Information. He asserted that he
watched the new method used in Pet
rograd hospitals. He attributes its
experimental use on animals to Pro-
lessor kravkoff and it's application to
operations on persons to Professor
Fedovoff, formerly surgeon to the
emperor.
Dr. Marcou says the patient awakes
from the sleep produced by it little
heavy in the head but without nausea
or i'll effects.
1t is methylpropylcarbino in the
proportion of one to 100 parts OF
warm, salty water that does the bust
ness, he says. This is injected direct
ly into a large vein in the elbow and
the hollow tube is left in the vein
so more may be pumped in as needed.
When from 100 to 200 grams of the
liquid have been put in the blood the
patient sleeps but there still remains
reflex action in the eyes, which is
taken as the standard of anaestheti-
Zation.
Patient Sleeps.
AS more of the sleep-producer is
used, sensitiveness leaves the eyes
end the surgeon operates, testing the
eyes from time to time so as to keep
the blood-system supplied with the
fluid. The patient sleeps several
hours after the completion of the op-
Grafton.
Hundreds of operations, says DR..
Marcou, "were performed in Russia
during my stay. l watched some of
them. Not one case of death has yet
been reported"
The anaesthetic is said to be par
ticularly valuable for head and neck
operations where the use of ether or
Chloroform mask interferes with the
surgeons work. In such diseases as
make the introduction of salty solu-
tons into the blood undesirable or
dangerous. says DR.. Marcou, salt may
be replaced by glucose or bicarbonate
Of soda.

The whole miserable affair, at this'
time, and in the light of develop

conceived in a. lawless resort, carried
out by hooHlums and permitted by al
weak and incompetent police depart-|
ment.
Getting down to bit Of analysis,|
many things in this case do not ring|

Although claiming to have been|

was apparently in normal condition.
Young Sullivan, the II year old del

BLACKS ORGANIZE
COOPERATIVE STORE
in OMAHA, NEBRASKA
Especial to The Tribune)

OMAHA, Neb., July THE organi-
zation of the Cooperative Workers
of America. 100000 buying and
selling corporation, marks the begin
ming of a new era in business for
colored people in the central west.
This company is incorporated un-
der the laws of the state of Nebraska,
and abs received permission from the
bureau of securities to sell 500 900
worth of its capital stock.
The company has purchased the
business block at 1916 and 1913 North
Path street, which the department
store will occupy
The store will open just as soon as
the necessary remodeling has been
completed
Only six hundred and twenty per-
sons can purchase stock in the com
pany. Stock has already been re-
served for 40 persons, leaving the
number of $50. No person can pur-
chase more than five shares of stock
nor less than one share. The stock
is 500 per share, and may be pur-
chased by a payment of 10 per cent
when the subscription contract is
signed, and $40 or more per month
until the stock is paid for.
The money paid for the stock shall
be applied on the purchase price of
the building and paid for stock which
shall be sold in the store, making due
allowance for expenses allowed by
law in companies of this character.
In this way the company will have
real value back of every certificate of
stock it issues.
One Of the reasons for forming a
company of this character was not
only to get into the commercial world.
Lut to get in there to stay. There
will be $40 persons financially inter-
ested in the enterprise, which will
mean, including their families, that
there will be 1900 persons wno will
buy from the stor4 TSe average
daily expenditure for each person
will be, for food and clothing, about
81, or a gross income from the own
ers of the store of $500 per day
This alone assures the success of the
enterprise, but we will also sell to
the whole public, which, added to the
certain income, will make big bust
ness, or not quite $1,OOO,OOO per
year gross. This, of course, depends
upon efficient management
The company is engaging a general
manager for this enterprise who has
had fifteen years of successful expert
ence in the mercantile business. 1t is
also joining central buying agency

The REPUBLICAN PARTY
NEED NOT FEEL TOO
SURE OF COLORED Vote
lBy Asgociated Negro Press


Sometime ago The Associated Negro
Press announced that the big slogan
for political 1920 is "Where Do We
Come In?" That slogan is yet in
force, and the question has by no
means been satisfactorily answered,
according to the most reliable infor-
nation it is possible to get
If the republican and democratic
national conventions are supposed to
have answered the question, there
are several billion colored people
Throughout the country who are dis
pleased with the answer and hun
dreds of these are asking The AS
sociated Negro Press to give their
In keeping with the policy of ''above
board frankness" it is regarded as
duty to make public, and call special
attention to this condition. Party
Nominees and party leaders may take
the opinions for what they are worth,
but there is no question of the para
mount significance of the situation.
The people are filled with determina
tion, and they are speaking out as
never before.
Out of the hundreds of interviews
and letters received by The Associ-
ated Negro Press, this one from Wal
ter c. Balenger, 2297 Seward Avenue,
Detroit, Michigan, is typical. ct will
be remembered that Detroit now has
nearly $4,000 Negroes and they are
easily the balance of power in Michi-
gan since the migration). Mr.. Bal
enger says:
We have been following the G. o.
P. through thick and thin and we
don't seem 10 get any more from
them THAN we do from any other
party. l think that the chief reason
is that they feed us on promises.
Would it be a bad idea for us to
have an understanding before send
ing thousands and thousands of our
race to the polls to vote? Now,
would it not lie fair to ourselves to
support the man who supports us?
Let it be the third or fourth party.
We have bought our last pig in the
bag and demand that they play the
cards on the table"
The feeling seems to be that the
political parties have used the Negro
voters as tools, footballs, and political
playthings; that in many instances
disrespect of the most glaring kind
has been demonstrated, and that the
time for a real show down is here
politically; come what will.
