A Shampoo That Will
Not Whiten The Hair
The serious objections to cheap
shampoos are that they contain im
purities and alkalis. They burn and
deaden the hair, deprive it of life
and color, make the scalp and hair
dry and eventually white. Only
natural blends of the purest and most
highly refined Cocoanut and Palm
oils as blended in Shuco Shampoo
should be used. Shuco Shampoo is
a perfect saponification suspended in
a solution that easily changes into a
bushed of rich, creamy, bubbling and
sparkling lather.
Apply to the moistened hair and
rub well adding water and shampoo
as needed. It vanishes all dirt, dust
and dandruff, rinses out quickly and
perfectly, leaving the hair soft as
velvet, light and fluffy. Your mirror
will tell you why Shuco Shampoo
makes hair with a thousand lights.

BACK ACHED ALL
IHE TIME SAYS
WELL KNOWN
MAN
Kidneys Did Not Act Freely,
And Rheumatism Attacked
Him—Tells How Dreco, the
Herbal Remedy, Gave Quick
Relief.
To all who are troubled with the twist
ing, dragging pains of rheumatism, or
the distressing, painful symptoms of kid
ney disorders, here is a message from a
fellow “ufferer that will carry its own
lesson
This is what Mr. J. E. Lee, 2028 Key
nolds street, Brunswick, Ga., says:
"FOr a number of years I have suffered
from rheumatism and awful pains in my
back and limbs. Sometimes it seemed I
could not keep at work for those terrible
pains. My appetite fell off, I didn't sleep
well, and was bothered with constipation
very much. Recently my joints and
hands began to swell up and were very
painful, and my muscles ached. I had
about decided that I couldn’t ever get
straight again, as everything I had tried
failed. A friend asked me one day why
I didn't give Dreco a trial, as it was
working wonders with many people. I
bought a bottle, and it helped so much I
got the second, and it is truly wonderful
the good it has done me. The swelling is
all gone and the pains have left me Mv
appetite has returned : I sleep sound, and
am entirely relieved of constipation
Dreco has surely helped me when other
things have failed, and I don’t hesitate
to speak a good word for it.”
Dreco is a combination of juices and
extracts of many different roots, herbs,
barks and berries, which act directly
upon the liver, kidneys, bladder, stomach
and blood, and banishes from the system
many ailments, such as rheumatism, ca
tarrh. biliousness, nervousness, head
aches, loss of appetite, indigestion, gas
on the stomach, eczema, skin eruptions
gout, epilepsy and constipation, when
given a fair trial
Dreco is sold by all druggists and is highly
rcommended in city bv
Americus Drug Company.
Alice Baxter trophy. Many young
women of the state have already of
fered themselves as members.
It has been shown that young wom
en of this age are fully capable of
sharing responsibilities of the older
women connected with this impor
tant branch in Georgia, and it is also
pointed out that whatever interests
the young women of any community
the young men will also adopt.
If the chapters all over the state
busy themselves in securing enlarg
ed memberships, it is entirely possi
ble that Georgia, through the Ameri
cus chapter, may win the Alexander
Allen Farris membership trophy of-’
sered to the state registering the
largest membership of young women
Mrs. Frank Harrold, as state presi
dent, is ver much interested in this
movement, and is enlisting the in
terest of the young women of Ameri-1
cus in this important work.

Loredo, Texas, will arrive in Ameri-’
