Washington.-—Behind the apparent

Marne salient the high command of
tho allied and German armies may b«|
"setting stag* for tho decisive battle of
the war. In that event It seems more
than likely to observers here that
the fourth anniversary of the begin

flame of fl«?htlng raging from east of

WKLI. ON HOAI) TO RGCOVUHK.
Any remedy tlmt restore* tho
natural functions of the human
body is a health-making remedy.
The use of Dreeo, the great herb
medicine, tends to restore the ap
petite, to procure natural diges
tion, which is followed by an in
creased circulation and nutrition
of the whole body. Lean, haggard,
bloodless people begin to gain
weight, strength and flesh atonoe,
from taking Dreeo, as they them
selves declare in signed' testimo
nials. For instance, Mrs. Maud
ISlaekwell, tho well known resi
dent of Greenville, says: "I was
one of the worst run down women
in Greenville. My water was
itwuys Woody, would liu.t and
burn. 1 suffered from female
troubles, and when I would eat
there would be a lump come in
:iny stomach. I would have to gasp
for breath. I have taken one bot
tle of Dreeo. 1 have gained sev
eral pounds already but as I am
not entirely Well yet I am takine
my second bottle and expect tg
keep it up for it is helping mo
very much. I'm sure it's the
grandest medicine ever sold in
Greenville and I'm telling every
body about it."
People who are run down, tired
out, debilitated, no matter what
the cause, are advised to try this
simple little test. Get from any
well stocked J rug store a bottle of
Dreeo. Take a spoonful with
each ineal for it few days and
watch how the chango works
through the entire body. Tho ap
petite increases, everything you
eat seems to taste better. There
is no dyspepsia or gas lifter every
meal. The bowels, kidneys, liver
and stomach work in harmony
ind the rich red blood goes cours
ing through tho veins. This is
what hundreds of men and women
of this section sty Dreeo has done
for them. Isn't it ieasonable4o
expect it can do the same for
