INDIGESTION.


Perfect digestion means pure blood.
Pure blood means clear complexion,
Il bright eye and an elastic step. In
digestion is always the result of negli-
gence. To fail to assist nature in rem
edying defective system and to bring
about harmony in the natural functions
of the body, is worse than unwise-it Is
a crime against nature and self. Ov-
ercrowding the stomach, or eating food
difficult of assimilation. is one of the
main causes of indigestion. Indiges-
ton is known by sallow, spotted or
pimpled skin; dull and lusterless eyes;
disagreeable taste, with coated tongue;
fretful disposition and Ill temper. DR..

and is a complete cure for all forms OF

Former Assistant Postmaster
Pleads Guilty on Being Ar.
raisned at Des Moines.
Case Continued for Sentence for
Indefinite Period and May
End the Matter.
Is Released on His Own Bond
and Given His Freedom
Friends Interfere.

kilograms to the T.-R. from Des
Moines this afternoon announce that
Max kruskopf, former deputy postmas-
ter in this city, was arraigned in the
plea of guilty to the indictment, which
charged the Withholding of postal funds.
and that sentence was continued indefi-
nitely, Mr.. Kruskopf being released on
his own bond.
Friends who accompanied Mr.. Krus-
kopf to Des Moines interceded in his be-
half, and the continuance of the case for
sentence and the releasing of MIR. krus-
kopf on his own bond means that no
further action will be taken in the mat
ter SO long as Mr.. Kruskopf's conduct is
acceptable to the court. This out
come of the case is gratifying to
Mr.. Kruskopf's friends, who have
teen working earnestly in his behalf.
Kruskopf was indicted on the charge of
failing to deposit postoffice money. in
stead of failure to account for funds.
The penalty for this crime is not so Sc
we're as for embezzlement.
Postmaster John @. Saint, DR.. H L.
Getz. Mr.. D. I. Denmead and Mr.. Max
Kruskopf went to Des Moines this
nsrning, where matters pertaining to
the Indictment in the federal court yes
terday of Mr.. Kruskopf will be looked
after.
Mr.. Denmead goes especially to look
after his own interests as one of Mr..
Kruskopf's bondsmen. he, with p. S..
Balch. N. A. Carmean and w. j. Fort
having been on Mr.. kruskopf's bonds
for $4,000, for his appearance before the
grand jury.
Mr.. Kruskopf's failure to appear on
Wednesday Is explained as being an
oversight on the part of friends who had
been intrusted with the matter of let
ting him know that his presence was
desired in the federal court. He was to
have been informed, and was not, and
consequently did not deem it necessary
to go until called upon.

HUGE BOXES OF JEWELS
Holiday Goods by the Box and
the Crate Arriving at
Hellberes.
Silverware His Forte This Year
diamonds in Stock.-Every.
thing There.

Anyone visiting Hellberg's jewelr,
store early this morning would have
seen huge boxes and crates OF goods
just received, ready to be unpacked
When asked what was in them Heilbers
replied, "oh! everything. But mostly
silverware. I'm going to have in my
store this season anything and every
thing person can ask for in holiday
goods. And If anyone asks me what to
get for Christmast I'm going to tell
them silverware. 1t is the most salts
factory in the long run. Silverware is
always in style, always useful and de-
sirable. lasts a lifetime and gives more
value for the money expended than any
other article that can be bought"
Hellberg certainly has an enormous
stock of silverware, in the cupbsards
under the cases and everywhere he has
the little boxes stored. Knives and forks
by the hundreds instead of dozens, solid
spoons even by the hundreds and every
conceivable piece OF silverware ever
sold in a jewelry store. Hundreds OF
shown. Those artistic pieces Of statu-
airy in oil colors have been attracting
much attention. They are odd, artistic
and not too expensive to be beyond the
reach OF anyone desiring beautiful
home ornament
This year Hellberg will have dia-
monds. 1t is always risk for dealer
to carry much of supply of these
stones in town the size of Marshall-
town but Hellberg has them this year,
a large assortment and none but per-
sonally selected stones in the lot. He'll
berg is always supplied with desirable
mountings and Is prepared to put up a
fine ring to order on short notice. II
ample capital, unlimited nerve and long
experience don't make Hellberg's stock
marvel this year the day of wonders
will surely have passed away.

The outcome Of the cases depends
largely upon the vigor with which the

the people, and especially of republicans,
is that no man who has been guilty of
wrongdoing should be whitewasheG in
the trial of the case instituted against
him.

Gems National bank, on which the draft
was drawn.
