PAINS ARE NOW GONE Dreco Speedily Corrects Digestive Troubles that Were Making Life Miserable for Mr. Mould. The farmer and the banker THOUSANDS of farmers throughout Canada have proved for themselves the value of a connection with The Bank of Toronto. The opening of a small deposit account has, in hun- dreds of cases, been the means of establishing friendship and confidence, and the loans obtained from the Bank fronn time to time for farm operations have been of great assist- ance in helping many a farmer towards success. Farmers' business is as important to The Bank of Toronto as any other business. We welcome the Farmer at any of our Branches. "BANMORONTO Incorporated 18SS BRANCHES: t€. FEVERSHAM MARKDALE 1S4 Mr. Alfer Mould of 40 St. Clarens Ave., Toronto, was a victim of chronic constipation and all tiie distressing sympoms tliat follovirs this unhealthy condition of the bowels. Dreco, how- ever, brought immediate relief and toned up his whole system. "For some time," says Mr. Mould, "I suffered from gas in my stomach, which caused bloating and heartburn. Mr. bowels were terribly constipated and I had to continually take harsh laxatives. ' Headaches bothered me greatly and I would get up in the mornings, tired and drowsy after a night of restless tossing about in bed. Finally, a pain developed in my right side, just over the appendix and with it came » lump. This was so distressing' at times that 1 could hardly carry on with my work. My appetite became very poor and I could hardly eat a thing, the result being that my system became greatly weak- ened through lack of proper nourish- ment. "It was then that I heard about Dreco and decided to try it. I have only taken four bottles but my pains have disappeared. My bowels act regularly, I have a good anpetite and sleep soundly. Dreco has certainly done a whole lot of good." If you suffer from headaches, stom- ach pains, sluggishness and are gen- erally out of sorts, Dreco will help you. This fine tonic and corective relieves constipation, the prime cause of most of these troubles,' and streng- thens and regulates the liver, kidneys and stomach as well. Dreco is pre- pared from herbs, roots, bark and leaves and contains no mercury, pot- ash or habit-forming drugs. Dreco is being specially introduced in Flesherton by C. N. Richardson and is sold by a good druggist every- where. SHIPPED STOCK WITH VALUE OF $124,662 Markdale Shipping Associa- tion Had Good Year Small Advertisements Annual Meeting of L.O.L.
