TWO BOTTLES OF DRECO DID-
MORE FOR ME THAN $500
WORTH OF OTHER MEDICINES
Says Prominent Proximity Machinist. Severe Case of Kidney
- Trouble Reported Reached by New Herbal Medicine. Noted
Fraternal Member Tells Wonderful Story.
Almost everybody in this section
knows C. L. Teal, the prominent frater
nal worker and machinist in the Prox
imity Mills, and whose home address is
Boi92, Proximity.
Mr. Teal is an active member of the
Redmen, and has the distinction of hav
ing gone through all the chairs of the
Woodmen of the World. His popularity
is due in no smell measure to his active
interest in the affairs of his community
and his advice on social and political
matters -is much sought.
Mr. Teal has been afflicted for a long
time with a particularly malignant form
ot stomach trouble which seemed to defy
all treatment until a friend of his, Mr.
Basinger, told him of Dreco, the new
herb medicine which he said helped him
wonderfully.
Here is Mr. Teal's story of his experi
ence with Dreco. It will prove interest
ing reading for the hundreds of men and
women in this section who think their
case are iyond relief. Read every
word: (. .
'"I have been suffering for years and
the doctors said I would not live six
months longer if I wasn't operated on.
They made an X Ray picture and said I
had a 'kidney stone.'
"I bare spent between $600 and $600
trying to get cured and two bottles of
Dreco have done me more good than
everything else put together. I suffered
such pains in my back that I could not
bend nor stoop over.' When I had taken
three-quarters of the first bottle of Dreco
every pain had left me.
''the reason I ever bought the first
bottle was because it had helped my
friend, Mr. Basinger so much.
"I expect to take a half doien bottles
before I stop an-1 feel that I will be per
manently cured." r "
Dreco is the purely herbal medicine
that is causing such a furor throughout
this section. Fund reds of men and
women are taking it regularly and re
porting remarkable result? in cases of
stomach and kidney disorders, liver com
plaints, constipation, rheumatism, ca
tarrh and similar, troubles.
Dteco Is dispensed by most good drug
shops and is particularly recommended
in Greensboro by Fariss-KliiU Drug Co.
serve in a similar capacity, for La
layette. . ...
(Vwine to the fact that but few inter
collegiate debates arc held- in Oroens-1
loro, tonight's contest will be of un
usual interest 1 Fayette is one of the
best known Pennsylvania college and
Davidson is one of the leading North
Carolina institutions, therefore it is ex
pected that the argument will he spirit
ed. The debate will be held' in the eol-H
lege auditorium and the public la cor
dially invited.
