The Stomach Is the Man.

A weak stomach weakens the man
because it cannot transform the food he
eats into nourishment. Health and
strength cannot be restored to any sick
man or weak woman without first re-
storing health and strength to the stom'
ach. A weak stomach cannot digest
enough food to feed the tissues and re-
vive the tired and run down limbs and
organs of the body. Kodol Dyspepsia
Care cleanses, purifies, sweetens and
strengthens the glands and membranes
of the stomach, and cures indigestion

ance from Senator Stone of Missouri,

petrifactions in the shape of bones ;}ld
other things ever discovered in the
West. The bones are of great size, and
although petrified, the marrow in them
shows plainly. With the bones are fos-
SLICED fishes of all kinds and of ire

the scales show plainly. In several
cases the ,vertebrae are larger than are

petrifactions and the fossils. These
finds came to the ears of Mr.. Somes and
he made an investigation, with the re-
suit that he found evidences of Oil in
large quantities. The company now
owns nearly 1900 acres of land and
will sink several wells at once. Noted
biologists have decided that Oil, such
as is found in these fields, is the
product of decomposed animal matter
that was left in the region at the time
Of the great upheaval, thousands of
years ago. and the finding of these fos-
sils is considered a certain indication
that oil is there in large quantities
The oil shale, too. found in the region
shows plainly the impression of shells
and Of sea animals. which seem to bear
out this theory.

PITIFUL APPEAL GOES UP
FOR HARVEST HELP
Wheat Crop in Parts of Kansas May
Rot for Want of Toilers.

Special to The Globe.
TOPEKA. Kan. July Hundreds
of letters from Pratt. Stafford and
Rush counties. in the western part of
the state. appealing for help to save
the crop have been received here. In
the last named county alone 1000 men
are called for. Over 100000 acres of
overripe wheat are ready for the har-
vester, and but a small fraction of 1t
has been cut.
Unless assistance is soon secured a
large part of this acreage, containing
over 100000 bushels of grain, will be
total loss. Many of the appeals are
pathetic. The district mentioned does
not represent more, than Is per cent
Of the state, but is the farthest re-
moved from the help that has recently
been imported.
