WHY HESITATE?
An Offer That Involves no Money
Risk If You Accept 1t.

We are so positive our remedy
will completely relieve constipation,
no matter how chronic it may be,
that we offer to furnish it free OF
all cost if it fails.
Constipation is commonly caused
by weakness of the nerves and mus
cles of the large intestine. TO ex-
pect cure you must therefore tone
up and strengthen those organs and
restore them to healthier activity.
We want you to try Rexall Order
lies on our guarantee. They are
eaten like candy, and are particular
ly good for children. They seem to
act directly on the nerves and mus
cles of the bowels. They apparently
have a neutral action on the other
organs. They do not purge or cause
other Inconvenience. We will re-
fund your money if they do not ov-
ercome chronic or habitual consti-
patton and thus aid to relieve the
myriads of associate or dependent
chronic ailments. Try Rcxall Order
lies at our risk. Three sizes, 1Oc.,
Csc, and soc. Sold only at our
store-The Rexall Store. Bell &

OKLAHOMA CITY, Jan. 10.-Hold-

corporation commission for telegraph
business within the state of Oklahoma
would not yield a fair return to the
companies, the oklahoma supreme
court today set aside those rates and
put back In force the rates formerly
established by the companies, which
were held to be reasonable and remun-

company is entitled to a fair return
and that rate which does not admit
of It, is in violation of the fourteenth
amendment to the federal constitution.
1t is further held that the reasona-
bleness OF rates is to be determined
only on a basis of intrastate business
and the revenues derived from it.
