Iron OK Tablets relieve constipation
by stimulating the stomach and bowels
to natural action. They tone up the
entire digestive system, causing per-
feet digestion, perfect assimilation, and
a natural flow of fluids. This purga-
tives and cathartics cannot do.
BY curing indigestion and constipa-
ton, and causing normal action Of the
liver and kidneys, Iron-Ox Tablets
purge the blood of impurities which
produce disfguring skin eruptions and
disease.
Besides this. they contain in con-
yenielt form the active principle OF
nerve and brain food SO that they are
l,neaualed system builders.
Remember, Iron-Ox Tablets are not
nl1rgative or cathartic in their effect;
q they are tonic-laxative; they cure by
building up the entire system. They
grow increasingly effective with con.
finued use. Purgatives and cathartics
rive only temporary relief by violen

the murder of Mabel Bech.c, .---. Oc-

to be Miss Bechtel's accepted sutton
The indictment charges him with be-

said that Eckstein will be acquitted
and that he will be used as witness
against the members Of the Bechtel
family. District Attorney Lichten-
walner said to-day:
ST must confess that our case
against the Bechtels is not as strong
as I expected it to be-. Furthermore,
/ must admit that our case against
Eckstein was purely circumstantial.
Rather than take the chance of losing
all we decided to relinquish our fight
against him and give him his freedom
on condition that he would testify to
what occurred in the home Of the
Bechtels the Sunday night Mabel came
home after she left Weisenberger. We
have the promise of Mr.. Stiles and
Mr.. Freeman that their client will
take the stand when called upon to
do so, and now have hopes of being
