HERE'S WHAT THE
MINNEAPOLIS DAILY.
I NEWS SATS:
"Experts from the laboratory of
Thomas A. Edison, with the aid of
Madam Marie Rappold, of the Metropolitan
Opera Company, demonstrated
Friday night in the Auditorium
that the inventor has attained
such perfection in reproducing the
human voice that it was actually
impossible for a large invited audience
to distinguish between the prima
donna's voice and the Edison ReCreation
of it."
"Those in the audience famrlar
with Madam Rappold's voice were a
trifle astonished?the voice they
heard seemed unquestionably hers,
although they faced the visible evidence
of her dosed lips. Then Madam
Rappold's lips opened, and her
. voice poured out. There were two
voices in the Auditorium now. Here
it became evident that, although
I Madam Rappold was singing, her
voice was matched so perfectly by
the voice in the cabinet that it was
impossible to distinguish between
the two."

f
Hi* Kidneys Caused Pain* in His
Bark Also. Claims Dreco Gave
Relief.
Many letters arc received stating
th4 good Dreco has done. We print
this one coming from Mr. S. G.
Deane of 1012 Main St., Columbia,
S. C., which says:
'I suffered awful pains in my
stomach that would draw me double.
My kidneys were deranged, the urine
being of high color, feverish and
painful. I have taken three bottles of
Dreco and all these troubles are
completely eased. My wife is also
taking Dreco now."
I Dreco acts on the kidneys and
I stops the backache, dull, tired dragging
down pains; relieves constipation;
assists the stomach to digest
, the food; ends gas misery; relieves
dizzv spells; biliousness; coated tongue;
bad taste in the mouth; increases
the appetite and induce,
sound sleep.
Dreco is a combination of many
medicinal plants, which hate a direct
effect on the vital organs. Doing a
natural herb medicine, it acts in :
natural way, .so 'hat the effects u:v
permanent.
Dreco is now sold by all good
' druggists throughout the country
and is highly recommended in
