Medical science knows that poison

the liver is our most important organ
the body's wonderful purifier.
Science now understands how the
liver prevents the formation OF body
poisons that cause diseases Of the
kidneys, and blood vessels and are
chiefly responsible for premature old
age.
When the liver becomes weak, the
poisons are sucked up by the blood
and health is broken down. Guided
by this knowledge, medical science has
found the only way to help the liver
create the purifying bile without which
no human can live. Physicians know
that the liver cannot be regulated by
drugs. but safe Nature substance
has been discovered which will at once
increase the vital bile supply. The dis
covery is purified OK gall.
Get from your druggist package
Of ,Dioxol. Each tablet contains ten
drops of purified OK gall. In twenty.
four hours the poison toxins will be re-
moved. Your liver will be regulated.
Blood publication will begin. Sallow
skin will clear. You will feel so much

q
Figures Prove Exhibits Slim
UIate Business in Indiana.

Importance of the annual Indian

the automotive industry of the State
Is proved conclusively by statistics,
according to George o. Wildhack.
president Of the Indianapolis Auto
mobile Trade Association.
asst year, Wndhack said, records
of the office Of the secretary of State

Then came the automobile show.
Immediately automobile sales began
to jump and records for March showed
that 1884 passenger automobiles had
been sold during the month, an in
crease of almost 5000 over February.
In April sales jumped to 1880.
This affords conclusive proof that
the annual Indianapolis show is not
an amusement but a realS business

GERMAN SITUATION
|SDESPIERATE, But
HOPE ISNOT GONE
Quaker Relief Worker Tells
of Conditions-French
Arms Not Feared,

Conditions in Germany are worse
than you can imagine, and not so bad
as you would think"
That's the first thing John p.
Fletcher of London, England Quaker
relief worker. visiting in Indianapolis,
tells you. Then he explains the
paradox:
You cannot imagine 10000 900
people so hungry that even a little
mishap can throw them into
starvation. Yous cannot imagine pay
ing 100000 marks for trolley fare,
as I did just before I left Germany
in October, or paying 20,o0O,000 marks
for a newspaper.
"And yet despite these prices, people
ride the trolleys and buy the news
papers"
Palace Is Food Office
Fletcher spent three years in Ger
many. Quaker relief feeding offices
in Berlin are in the palace Of the
former kaiser.
The Englishman is making a nine
months tour of tho United States.
He is visiting Cornell Hewson, 1860
N Meridian ST, also former Quaker
relief worker in Europe.
Germany is more afraid Of the
restoration of German miltarism than
of French militarism," Fletcher said.
THE French is considered the lesser
of two. evils.
Evidence that the German spirit is
not militaristfc now is shown in i'm
mense no more war demonstrations
held every july, on the anniversary
of the beginning of the World War.
Federation Seen as Hope
1.-THE situation in Europe is desper-
ate, but not hopeless. The hope l see
is that out of the chaos will be born
the Federated States Of Europe, found
ed on friendliness.
Glass war is tho greatest danger
to the world right now"
Fletcher will speak tonight at a
public meeting at the Athenaeum, on
Changed and Changing Europe" He
will address employees Of the Columbia
Conserve Company, at which Hewson
is employed, Thursday noon. Thurs
day night he will speak on "Adven-
lures in Quakerism," at the Friends
Church, Thirteenth and Alabama SITS.
Friday evening he will address group

FRIENDS KILL HIM
This Is Theory of Companion
With Couple on Night
of Murder,

By United Press
CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-John Daugh.
erty, alias Duffy, Philadelphia gunman
killed Maybelle Exley Duffy, his bride
of two weeks and then was slain by
his wife's friends, William Engelcke,
who said he was with the couple on
the night of the killings, told police
today.
Engelcke, who was sought in con-
nection with the murders, was ar
rested today.
Duffy and Maybelle and 1 were
having a drinking party that night, ="
Engelcke said.
Got Into Argument
Duffy and Maybelle got into an
argument because she refused to eat
lunch with him. Duffy pulled a gun
and shot Maybelle. He forced me to
stay with him for nearly twenty-four
hours and often threatened to kill
me.
The last L saw of Duffy was when
he got into an automobile with sey-
eraI strangers. 1 believe these men
killed him and threw his body from
the car"
Dufy's body was found near the
outskirts of the city Friday morning
A few hours later police went to his
apartment and found the body of his
wife.
Story Seems Plausible
Although declaring Engelcke's story
was plausible and might be true, po-
lice announced they would hold him
until more details of the double kill
ing were made clear.
Mrs. Exley Duffy was known in the
underworlds of several cities. Her
husband was a notorious police char
acter in Philadelphia and several Ohio
cities. .
