WONDERFUL CURE
OF SORE HANDS
By CutlcuFa After the
Most Awful Suffering
Ever Experienced.
EIGHT DOCTORS
And Many Remedies Failed
to do a Cents Worth
Of Good.

"About I'VE years ago was troubled
with sore hands, so sore that when 1
would put them in wkter the pain would
very nearly set me crazy, the skin would
peel or and the flesh would get hard
and break. There would be blood fiow-
ing from at least fifty places on each
hand. Words could never tell the suf
8ering / endured for three years. 1
tried everything that I was told to use
for fully three years, but could get no
relief. 1 tried at least eight different
doctors, bat none Of them seemed to do
me any good, as my hands were as bad
when 1 got through doctoring as when
first began. I also tried many rene
dies, but none of them ever did me one
cents worth of good. 1 was discour-
aged and heart-sore. I would feel so
bad mornings when got up. to think
had to go to work and stand the pain
for ten hours, and often felt like Civ
ing up my position. Before / started
to work mornings 1 would have to
wrap every finger up separately. so

NIL the time. But thanks to Cutlcura,
the greatest of all great skin cures.
After doctoring for three years, and
spending much money, Soc box of

fngs. It's been two years since used

PACKING UP.
Busy Scene on the Worlds Fair
Grounds Today.

ST. Louis, Mo-, Dec. 2.-From a
scene of enjoyment and festivity to
the busy turmoil of packing exhibits
and demolishing structures, the
Worlds fair changed in one night
Putting switch engines shunted cars
throughout the grounds today convey
ing packing materials to the different
exhibit palaces and the sound of the
hammer was heard everywhere.
It is estimated that probably three
months will intervene before the ex-
position has been depleted of exhibits.
The work of clearing up and restoring
that part of Forest park used for the
fair will be begun with the advent of
spring.
Large forces of workmen were dis
tributed through the grounds today
and these will be augmented as the
days proceed. Every effort will be
made to clear away the exposition with
dispatch. United States soldiers
paraded the grounds today guarding
the exhibit palaces, foreign and state
buildings, and assisting the Jefferson
guards.

KELLY SAYS KEEP 1T.
Oil Inspector Wouldn't Pipe Gas Out
of State.

M. c. Kelly, state oil inspector, sug
gests a new idea in connection with
the agitation to keep Kansas gas with
in the state and prevent its being
piped out
"How is the oil business" Mr.. Kelly
was asked today.
1.-THE oil business is all right" he
said. Its f1ourishing, but we ought to
have a law to prevent its being piped
out of the state. We ought to compel
people who want to use oil to move
into the state and use it where it is
produced. Why should we let our oil
be piped out of the state and used to
build up industries elsewhere, when we
might compel these industries to come
into the state to use our oil.
That's the kind of argument the
gas belt people are putting up in op-
posing the piping of gas out of the
gas fields" continued the oil inspector
with a peculiar smile. why won't 1t
apply to oil as well gas. 1t might
interfere with marketing much of the
oil, but won't it work the same way
with gas?"

'It is satisfactory in every way. Not

are also. Lolita can walk easily and
well. She still limps slightly, but that
will go away in time. Such an opera
from.
DIR. Lorenz has not decided when
he will again come to this country
he hasn't time now at least. He has,
however, expressed to me his desire to
visit once more his many friends in
the United States, and I have no doubt
he will come over again some day"

MORRISON'S
JeWeIry Store
63I KANSAS AVENUE

The county commissioners, who acted
as viewers in the benefit district, or
dered that the Ennis tract, and a few
other outlying tracts be made a. part
of the benefit district for the purpose
of building the dyke.
The petition for the dyke in dyke dis
trict No. was fled with the county
commissioners August %. E. c. Ar
mold was named as the commissioner 10
serve notices on the property owners in
the benefit district of the move TO
build the dyke. On October % the three
commissioners, Haynes, Sterne and
Harrison, viewed the property in the
benefit district to decide on the extent
of the dykes and the assessment.
The dykes in district No. will be
along the north side of the Kansas riv-
er and the south bank of Soldier creek.
All the dykes contemplated are:
Dyke district No. 1 is on the north
side of the Kansas river, south of Ross
vile.
Dyke district No. will be North To-
peka and will include the dykes on the
north bank of the river and the south
bank of Soldier creek.
Dyke district No. is north of town
and the dyke will be along the north
bank of Soldier creek a mile north of
North Topeka.
Dyke district No. is east of town
and the dyke will be on the south bank
of the river midway between Topeka
and Tecumseh.
The commissioners expect that before
the board meeting Monday that County
Surveyor Rodgers will complete the es-
Inmates for the dyke in district No. g.
The board will not advertise for bids
for the completion Of dyke No. until
the plans for dyke No. are completed
in order that the contract for both
dykes may be let at the same time.
Dyke No. 2, the North Topeka dyke,
will be II feet wide on top and will
have a slope of two to one, which
means that where the dyke is ten feet
high, and II feet wide at the top, the
base will be 80 feet wide. ~.4
The specifications for the dykes will
call for the construction of a dirt
grade where specified by the levels
made by the county surveyor. Where
possible ''gumbo' soil will be used and
it is expected that the gumbo will
harden and offer resistance against wa
ter washing the dykes. In some places
where there is particular danger of
washing and cutting, broken stone will
be used and in other places willow and
cottonwood logs and branches will be
made use of.
BY the first of next week the COM
missioners expect to have the plans
and specifications for dyke No. on
file and then to advertise for bids and
then be able to let the contracts for the
dykes before the first of January in
order that the dykes may be compile
ted before the spring rains.
