October 24. 1923 THE KLESHERTON ADVANCE THE Flestierton Advance W. H. THURSTON, - Editor MOSTI.V AH*T WEATHER The weather is always a prolific topic of conversation when their is little else to talk about. We are all very fond of telling our neighbor that it is a beautiful day, of cold, or .warm, r hot or wet, etc. However, these salutations have been limited in their latitude during the past month to the single phrase, "Its a nice day." Among the thousand." who use these inanities of conversation one oc- casionally finds a man who enters the realm of prophet and attempts to tell us what the weather is going to be, not what it is at the moment. And that man is always listened to with attention and his prophecies carefully weighed. Wo may point out and laugh at his inaccuracies and mis- takes, but we (to right on inwardly believing that he has a little more in- sight into the laws which regulate the weather than the ordinary run of mankind and we preserve his state- ment? carefully throughout the year. And when he hits the nail on the head even once during the twelve months we devote half a column of space to a shouting aloud the fact and gape with the wonder of how he did it The eleven failures go "unheralded and unsung-." We never notice them. Isn't it a funny characteristic in hu- manity "! This county has a wathcr prophet of its own and several times it v.nuld appear as though the gentleman was in collusion with the weather-making i instance when he suid a copy of the authorities and had first-hand infor- , Maford Mirror had been gives him mation as to whnt in coming to ua, and j in Orillia containing an excellent again we arc in doubt, but Btill he hits write-up of the Ford exhibit, and it just right a sufficient number of . what it meant.

It opens up an opportunity for the family without a closed car to get one at prices which will probably not be as low again. This is an opportunity for the man with a large car to relieve the larger car and decrease its depreciation, especially during the coining winter months. H. DOWN & SONS Flesherton, - Ontario . FORD MOTOR COMPANY OF CANADA, LIMITED, FORD, ONTARIO FOUR PEOPLE REAP BENEFIT MK. AiNt) MRS. DAVIS. SON AND 1MKJH.TER REJOICE IN DIS- COVERY OF HERBAL MEDICINE Mrs. W. II. Davis of 1 White Ave.. Toronla, makes the following state- ment on behalf of her family of four, every one of whom is taking Dreco and improving in health "My husband suffered for ten years from stomach and liver trouble. He was chronically constipated, oaus iiiK the constant use of laxatives. His food would not digest properly, it would sour and gas would form in a hard lump in his stomach. He- also had ilk/'.y spells, and severe head- aches troubled him. In bending over, pains would shoot across his back. Nearly evry joint in his body uched with rheumatic pains and it was im- possible for him even to lace his shoes, "We spent hundreds of dollars in 'earch of a good remed*/ that would give good results. I then read of what Dreco was doing for so many people right in our own city and Mr. Davis and I decided to give it a trial. Truly, the results have been very pleasing. "His appetite is good, the pains through his back and joints are much improved. He no longer has that tired, pale, haggard look and doesn't mind his work, as he feels much stronger and has more vitality. "I was so pleased with his growing improvement that I decided that Dreco was just what the chidren and my own system needed As a result, their appetites have greatly improv- ed and they seem to get the proper nourishment from their food, causing vi-ry noticeable benefits in their gen- eral condition^. "My system is in u better condition than it has been for many months. I can tat various foods now that 1 have IWH unable to cat for a long time. In riuiso of indigestion ami gastric spells. 1 also suffered from sick head- aches, nervousness and dizzy spells, which have mai'.y times kept me in bed for two or three days and made it impossible for me to do my house- work. These troubles have been en- tirely relieved by Dreco. "I am vry happy over the benefit my family ha:< derived from Dreco, and gladly do we recommend it. Its merits arc surprising." Dreeo is a reliable household rem- edy endorsed by thousands who have discovered its genuine merit. Com- pounded from the juices of medicinal herbs, roots, bark and leaves, it tones and regulates the whole system und quickly relieves indigestion, gastritis, sick headache, backache, pains in the limbs, constipation, biliousness and many other ailments. Build up your system with Dreco, the pi-oven lemedy that contains no mercury, potash or habit forming drugs. Dreco is being specially introduced in Flesherton by C. N. Itichnrdson and is sold by a good druggist every- where. ROCK MILLS SERVICES Anniversany services will be held in Rock Mills Baptist church on Sun- day, Nov. 4th. Rev.
