Presbyterian Church Dedicated
1,
A most interesting and instructive a
service was that held at the Presby- c
terian church here last Sunday g
morning. It was the didicatory ser- h
vice, and the sermon was preached f
bv the former pastor, the Rev. S. P. p
McChesney, of Anderson. There were
present to participate in the delight- n
ful service, the pastor, Rev. J. G. b
Herndon. Rev. E. A. McDowell of the I
Baptist church, and the venerable L
divine, W. Cuttino Smith of Reids- t
ville, who was pastor of the Wil- r
liamsburg Presbyterian church here o
thirty years ago, and who had not s
since visited the community. The
sermon by Mr. McChesney was an c
able discourse based on a part of the
16th chapter of St Matthew rela- u
r ri,n'cf<
live 10 fever s uuiucaaiuu VI vrniov. I
* * * * Thou art the Christ, the g
Son of the living God. And I say un-1 n
to thee that thou art Peter, and upon 'i
this rock I will build my church, and j]
the gates of nell shall not prevail j.
against it."
The church was well filled and
every one seemed to enjoy the occasion
to the fullest Mr. McChesney j
prefaced his sermon by expressing j
his appreciation of the invitation o
and the profound pleasure it gave s
him to be with his old congregation a
again. Special and appropriate mu- d
sical selections by a choir composed h
of singers fromt the several churches a
here was an enjoyable feature of the v
service, as were also the inspiring t
invocations offered by Revs. McDow- a
ell and Smith.

Dreco the
Best Medicine
He Ever
Took.
"I have suffered for 15 years from
kidney trouble, lazy liver, dyspepsia,
nervousness and rheumatism',' stated
Mr. T. Root of New York and
Palmetto, Fla. "I thought the Florida
climate would do me good so invested
in an orange grove, and now
spend the winter months there.
"When I came down this season I
heard every one talking about the
new medicine, Dreco, and the wonders
it was doing. I bought a bottle
and it is the greatest medicine I
ever encountered. It went right after
my troubles, and I am feeling better
than I have in a long time. I am go
ing to take some Dreco back to New
York with me for fear I cannot get
it there."
Dreco acts upon the vital organs
and restores them to healthy action.
It is soon noticed that the food digests
beitter without the gas forming.
The liver gets active, the kidneys become
regular and the bowels normal.
Sleep becomes full and refreshing
and the whole system feels rejuvenated.
'
Dreco is highly recommended in
