Outspoken in | PRAISING "DREC0"! i], Often Had To Get Up 4 or 5 j Times in Night on Account of His Kidneys?Everything he Ate Caused Gas. Pains and Diarrhoea. _ v, ' : j "You certainly have a fine medicine in I>reco," said a well known traveling man Mr. L. A. Todd, of 705 East 9th . Street, Charlotte "It has 'done me worlds of good and I am glad of a chance to publicly endorse it, he conP$:-. tinued. I "Everything I ate would sour on my ; stomach, form gas and bloat me up, cause awful griping in my stomach and diarrhoea. My kidneys were in bad shape and the doctor had ordered I \. 'me to stop eating meat and I couldn't, : . eat vegetables on account of my stom ach, so I was 'up against it' strong. "I frequently had to get up four or J five times during a night on account j ; of my kidneys. My urine was nighly; colored, feverish and had bad odor ,. and the pains in my back were almost ( , unbearable. I've waked up ,many a , night from these pains to roll and toss j till it-was about getting up time. Then I'd b9 all worn out and felt like sleep , ing, more tired than when I went to bed the night before. . f 1 "After taking two bottles of Dreco ; I am happy to say I am feeling better i than in many a day. My stomach is < as well as ever in my life, and I now eat corn, beans, potatoes in fact any- , thing I crave and it never gives me a j pain or diarrhoea. My kidneys are , all right 1 go to bed and never wake up a single time. The pains in my back are gone, urine is normal again and I am gaining strength every day. I certanly recommend Dreco to the peo - pie for it is a medicine possessing *1 gTeat merit. ' Dreco is sold at most t-ood drug stores and is strongly recommended in Lexington by Geiger Drug Store. * 11,000,COO MANPOWER MAY HAVE REGISTERED - "Washington, Sept. 13.?The wireldss flashed the news to General Per- , shir.g today that America had again gone "over the top" in her registration of man-power and that her armies would be limitless to crush the German hordes. Provost Marshal Gen E eral Cowder sent this message to Gen ; eral Pershing. i The nation responded yesterday with an endorsement which promises to exceed all estimates thus assuring an uninterrupted flow of man-power to the army under you." With the calls for men at the rate 1 of 250,000 a month as is now the schedule, this goup will supply the calls for six months while the entire class of yesterday's registration will meet the demands for ten months, when a^ new regstration of 1,000,000 men be- j coming 18 yeas of age may be ordered j If the local boards are able to keep | their schedule in sending out the ques tionnaires to the first group of regis- ; trants to be classified for call the t v; I dawing probably will be held in Wash ; ington on October 2.

Y CUBA'S FAMILY AT MES; sPoTAMIA: This letter was written by Jesus Christ, and found under a erreat stone both round and larsje. at the Toot of Tir. ovr.i-^ r>iiv'htnoii miloc frnni Tooni um, near a village called Mesopotamia: upon the stone was written and engraved: "Blessed is ho that shall turn nie over." All people who saw it, prayed t? God earnestly, and desired He would make known to them the meaning of this writing that thcy might not attempt in vain to turn it over. In, the meantime, there came j a little child, about six .or seven years old, and turned it over without help, j to the admiration of all the people that stood by. and under this stone . was found a letter written by Jesus , Christ, which was carried to the city of Iconium, and there published by I a person belonging to the Lady Cuba, j and in the letter was written the 1 "Commandments of Jesus Christ, j signed by ' the Angel of Gabriel, twenty-eight years after our Saviour's birth: "Whoever worketh on the Sabbath day shall be cursed. I command you to go to church, and keep the Lord's day holy without doing any manner of work. You shall not idly misspend your time in bedecking yourselves with superfluities of costly apparel and vain dresses, for I have ordained it a day of rest: I will have that day kept holy, that your sins may be forgiven you: you shall not break 'my Commandments, but observe and keep them, written with my own hand: write them in your hearts, and c+K' nlino- thic WQC TLTittPfl OC^ClV41.ClOi,I V V/ilUf5 CV ? vw ?. ? *v w.. j with my own hand, spoken by my own j mouth. You shall not only go to church yourselves, but also your man servants and your maid servants, nnd observe my words and learn my Commandments; you shall finish your labor every Saturday in the afternoon by 6 of the clock, at which hour the preparation of the Sabbath begins. I advise you to fast five days in every year, beginning with Good Friday, and to continue the four Fridays immediately following in remembrance >f the five bloody-^vvounrls I received for all mankind. You shall diligently and peaceably labor in your respective vocations, wherein it hath pleased God to call it. You shall love one another with brotherly love, tnd cause them that are not baptized to come to church arid hear the Holy -'acrament, viz: Baptism and the Lord's Supper, and be made members thereof; in so doing I will give you long life and many blessings, and comfort you in the greatest temptations, and when be that doeth to the contrary shall be unblest and unprof- i itable. I will also send hardness of j heart upon them, till I have destroyed j them, but especially upon hardened and impertinent unbelievers. He that hath given to the poor, he shall not be unprofitable. Remember to keep holy the Sabbath day, for the seventh day I have taken to myself; and be that hath a cop^- of this letter, writ- , ten with my own hand, and spoken j with my own mouth, and keeps it without publishing it to others, shall { nn+ nrnsnpr' hilt bp that oublisbeth ! it to others, shall be blest of mc. nntrthough his sins be in number as the stars in the skys, and he that believes in this shall be pardoned and if he believes not this writing and my Commandments, I will send my plagues ur.on him. and consume both him and j his children and ins cattle; and whom ! soever shall have a copy of this letter, written with my own hand, and keeps it in their houses, nothing shall hurt them: neither pestilence, lightning nor thunder dc them any hurt; and if a weman be with child and in i la! or, and v. copy of this iette?' be I a'-out her, and sue firmly puts her j trust in it, she shall safely be deliv- j ercd of her birth. You shall have no news of me but by the Holy Spirit till the day of Judgment. All goodness and prosperity shall be in the house where a copy of this letter shall be found." 1 HOW'S THIS?
