DRECO DRIVES DISEASE away.
SAY MANY LOCAL PEOPLE
Every mail brings 4 mass of signed testimony to
Dreco headquarters from all over the country.

Every mail brings additional tes-
timony to the Dreco Laboratories,
telling of seeminglys miraculous re-
lief from stomach, liver and kidney
troubles. chronic constipation and
the long list of ailments to which
human flesh and blood is heir.
One mail brings the story of a
once hardy mountaineer. back in
the hills of Kentucky, but of recent
years crippled and tortured by
rheumatic palms. At a little cross
roads store he purchased Dreco,
and a short time later he writes
that he is improving every day and
the aches and pains are all gone.
Why shouldn't he write us with a
heart overlooking with gratitude? =
In the same mail a letter from
a Boston business man describes
how pressure of work, close con-
finement and over indulgence in
tobacco had caused a slowing up in
the function of his vital organs. A
bottle or two of Dreco and he
hasn't felt better in years.
Its not much trouble to drop us
line and he does so-glad to tell
as OF his return to health. And
so the story goes. Mail after mail,
day after day. r
We don't ask you to write lis a
letter, but in fairness to yourself
we suggest that you give "Dreco''
the new herbal remedy a trial., Just
as thousands of folks right here in
washington have. done.

Federation OF Women's Clubs at the

: The younger people are treating
the eighteenth amendment too

" as. any other amendment to the

The law against liquor is being

LOS ANGELES, Cal. March 81.
"A new royal road to riches has
been. discovered!
why do 1 read the advertising
in the daily newspapers? Because
by so doing, feel the pulse Of the
business world"
That is the value placed upon
the financial and other advertising
in the newspape rs by A T. George,
formerly proprietor of a whole
sale bakery in Los Angeles who,
through his foresight of diligently
reading the newspaper advertising
has been able to retire on a com.
petence and is taking 1t easy''
after a busy life.
1.-THE financial advertising espec-
tally, Keeps me posted on trade
urers, markets and fluctuations
and gives me information as to
general conditions throughout the
country. ;.
Gets Lower Prices.
"I am able to save from 80 to IS
per cent on my purchases by buy
ing from live merchants who adj
vertise and are not afraid to pub
liSh prices which / may compare
with the wholesale quotations CIV
en- nthe financial news columns.
True, all merchants do not adj
vertise and we are not permitted
thereby to learn the facts about
their goods, but these do not last
long in business.
II found, when was in bust
ness, that it paid me to advertise
the facts about my concern and
play square with my customers.
Continuous persistent advertisers
are reliable and are soon known
as SUCH"
George declared that advertise
ments are of great educational
value because merchants, finan-
ciers, industrial leaders and all
classes of business men make 1t
a point to advertise the latest in
ventions and marketable articles.
BY reading bond advertising and
display descriptions Of great in
dustrial developments, the reader,
according to Mr.. George, is in the
forefront of educational progress.
By studying these ads George
claims that he is able to profit
actions.
Reads News Also.
'I think can truthfully say"
declared Mr.. George, that IS per
cent Of all my purchases are made
from newspaper advertising. / also

desirable locations for real estate

II suppose there are some people
who expect to gain all their facts
from the reading matter; but /
suggest that these read the ads too,

what they will find therein to

Society, Clubs Of Imperial Valley
Mrs. Burdetfs Book
About Husband Popular

Time did not permit an extended
mention of the book written by Mrs.
Clara j. Burdett at the meeting OF
the club yesterday and many iu-
quired Of it after the meeting. Its
title is "Robert J. Burdett-His
Message 1t was prepared by Mrs.
Burdett with the one idea of pass
ing on to the world the story of her
late illustrious husband, gathered
from his sayings and writing and
his experiences during long and
useful life. 1t is not the usual bio
graphy but is what the man thought
and said in letters to and from
friends, diaries, lectures, speeches,
newspaper articles, sermons. 1t
contains his sweet and wholesome
philosophy of life and is doubly at
tractive because Of the whimsies
and subtle wit that distinguished
Bob Burdett as an American humor-
ist.
The book may be ordered through
any book store or from the Clara
Vista press, Pasadena. Its price is
$3.50, and in the opinion Of literary
critics it is well worth a place in the
family library. A copy Of it is in
the city library and the county IL
brary also has it so that its branches
may secure it for circulation.

BARD, March 16.-Mrs. Sylvia
Feldman of Holtville who is the
county president Of the W. c. T. U.
paid US an interesting visit last
week. She attended the meeting of
the Ladies Aid which was held at
the church on Thursday and gave
an interesting address. Mrs. Field
man feels that in the interest of law
enforcement, there should be q
local chapter of the w. C.. T. U. in
this district, and her talk was along
this line. However as her visit was
unannounced, the suggestion came
as a surprise and most Of those
present seemed to want to think
the matter over before committing
themselves. The dry sentiment is
in the majority in this district as
indicated each time there has been
an opportunity TO vote on the ques-
ton but il was realized by all that
8 more emphatic stand for law en-
forccment should be made.
