Des Moines, Iowa, Feb. 1.-The Iowa
legislature has declared itself in favor OF
economy by providing that every appro-
body shall be considered in committee OF
the whole behind closed doors before &C
ton can be taken thereon. The house will
probably adopt similar policy. ..t.$
The first big appropriation to be asked
for will be 100000 for the completion of
the state historical building. This bill will
be introduced this week by the Polk
county members.
The state university will ask for about
a quarter of a million dollars, the state
college of agriculture wants hundred
thousand and the state normal school close
to that. The board Of control institutions
come in for requests, running slightly
over the million mark.

Special to The Journal,


IF you are constipated you cannot
be well-if you are not constipated
there is little chance of your becom-
ing sick.
Nature provides the bowels and
kidneys to free the system from waste
products which, if they remain in the
body, become poisons and produce
disease.
Poisons not carried away promptly
through the bowels or kidneys are
forced into the blood and thus injure
every part of the system.
Ircn-Ox Tablets cure constipation.
They do not give temporary relief by
dangerous cathartic or purgatiVe &C
ton, but go straight to the cause of
the trouble, and by securing bowel
health and normal kidney and liver
activity make constipation impossible
Anything which shocks the system
into activity is dangerous. Do not
expect immediate perceptible effects
from Iron-Ox Tablets. They produce
a natural, regular building up of al
the functions. This takes a little
time, but success is absolutely GER
tain.
Iron-Ox Tablets tone up the entire
digestive system, causing perfect d1
gestion, perfect assimilation, and {
natural flow Of fluids, so that purga
tives and cathartics are unnecessary
