ABBOTSFORD, 8U “AND MA'TSQUL

as

NuWS

Because of its proximity to the coast
and to local, but diminishing, stands of
merchantable timber, the resident in
this valley is in an enviable position
in the matter of building lumber,
Whore shingles, for instance cost $3
to $5 per M. and milled lumber from
$10 to $20 per M. more in the northern
parts of this provinee and on the
prairies, the loca] resident is able to
obtain for his use the very widest sel-
ection of materials at absolutely first

cost.

This is an advantage more consider-
able than most people realize.

Food Made Him
Miserable.

Victoria man could not enjoy his
meals and was weak and run-down
for lack of nourishment. Tells how
Dreco put him on hig feet.

“For several months my system was
in a badly run-down condition,’’ says
Mr. W. Nicolet, of 911 Blanchard
Street, Victoria, B.C. ‘‘T continually
had a tired feeling and no energy to
do my work. I suffered from indiges-
tion and stomach trouble and my food
would ferment and form a gas that
made me miserable. My whole system
was in bad shape and I couldn’t get
anything to Build it up,

*‘One day I saw in the papers what
Dreco was doing for others and got a
bottle right away. I have now taken
two ; bottles all told and feel like a
different man. That tired feéling has
gone entirely and I am no longer
troubled with indigestion, I gladly

recommend Dreco to anyone suffering |’

as I did.’”

reco ig Nature’s own remedy for
complaints that faulty
digestion, It soothes the stomach and
induces its normal funetions besides
the liver, kidneys and bowels to per-
form their work. Dteco is purely herb-
al and contains no mercury, potash or
habit forming drugs.

Dreco is being specially introduced
im Abbotsford by E.\T. Weir, and is
sold by all good druggists everywhere.

Abbotsford Board
Questions Moe Route

Representatives of Sardis and Chilli-
wack Board of Trade attended the
meeting of the Abbotsford Board on
Thursday last and discussed the pro-
posed route of the interprovincial high-
way across Sumas lake asjrecommended
by Engineer Moe of (the reclamation
works. t

In calling the meeting to order A,
McCallum apologized to the visitors
for the sparse attendanes of his mem-
bers, and requested O. Bowman of Sar-
dis to express the case 2f his Board.
This Mr. Bowman did, with the aid of
Maps and* memoranda, along the same
lines as at Huntingdon two days pre-
viously. Mr, Bowman and his associat-
es were not di&satisfied with the pro-
posed route only because it would not
touch Sardis, but because it would en-
tail expensive engineering work and
not adequately serve the districts tri-
butary to it. Messrs. Eddy, Thornton
and Storey expressed themselves along’
the same lines, Mr. Menzies of Chilli-
wack thought the matter might safely
be left to the Hon. E. D. Barrow, who
as the man responsible for the succo-s
oz the dyking scheme would assuredly
see that the road was satisfact rly
routed.

After some discussion a resolution
was passed for despatch to the Dennrt-
ment of Public Works expressing dis-
approval of the Moe route, and asking
thorough re-consideration of the matter
before work| was commenced,

Other than those mentioned the fol-
lowing were present: A. Campbell. W.
Owens, R. H. Eby, W. Blatchford, O >
Bendict, Dr. Ross, H. R, Brown, G. 11.
