Were the HELENE well up in base

Beyond the shadow of a doubt. the

OIL PRODUCTION is BOOMING.
Last Year the Largest i'm History of
Industry.

Washington, Oct 2O.-The petro-
leum production of the United States
in 1907, says a geological survey report
issued today, was characterized by a
total output far in excess of any pre-
vious year as unparalleled accumula-
ton of stocks, in spite of which the
price of all grades of oil was kept at
a high level.
The sensational developments were
the great increase in the new Illinois
field and the phenomenal yield in
Oklahoma together with increase in
both quantity and price in California
The total product was 166, 095,355 bar
rels in 1907, an increase over 1906 of
39,601,399 barrels or more than the
total products of any year up to 1889.
The total value increased from $92.-
444,735 in 1906. to S12O,16O,74e in
1907. The average price decreased
only slightly.
During 1907 a total of 1S,s55,6s1
barrels of oil were consumed as fuel
by the railroads of the United States
as against 15,557,677 barrels in 1906.
Most of the oil consumed was crude

New Discovery Cures Eczema and
graduates Minor Skin Troubles
Over Night.
A Few months ago the dispensers Of
posIam, the new discovery for the cure
OF eczema, decided to allow the drug
gists OF the country to handle it. Pre-
vious to that time it could only be
obtained direct from the laboratories.
Since this change in the method OF
distribution, poslam has met with the
most phenomenal success of anything
introduced to the drug trade In the
last 80 years. All leading druggists,
including Fred A. Snow, in Topeka
are now carrying the special 50-cent
size recently adopted, also the 81 jar
The great success is not surprising
when 1t is remembered that. in eczema
cases, poslam stops the itching with
first application. proceeds to heal i'm
mediately. and cures chronic cases in
few weeks. In minor skin troubles,
such as pimples, blackheads. acne,
herpes. blotches, rash, etc, results
show after an overnight application
Experimental samples of poslam are
sent to anyone by mail free of charge,
by the Emergency Laboratories. 80

WIND NO IMPEDIMENT
FOR HIM

During the recent windy weather,
many Topeka bicycles found it exceed
ingly hard pumping. One man was
seen with his head down. gritting his
teeth and coat tails flying. pumping
with all his might. Immediately ahead
of him was, mere boy, riding along
with seemingly perfect ease, cutting
the wind like an arrow
The boy was mounted on a new liver
johnson bicycle which he had purchas-
ed few weeks ago. for $35, at u S.
Cycle company. The man had one of
those old time wheels of cheap make
with oddly constructed frame and fray
ed out seat.
Moral: A rightly constructed wheel of
late design, makes all the difference

him to doctor and tried half dozen
other treatments, all with the same
result: no improvement at all. The
disease gradually spread until nearly
every part of his body was quite raw.
We had to strap him down in bed, for
he used to tear himself dreadfully in
his sleep. The agony he went through
is quite beyond words. No one thought
we would rear him. The regimental
doctor, a very clever man, pronounced
the case hopeless; at least, he said the
only hope was that he might. If he
lived long enough, outgrow it to some
times and he was pronounced one of
the worst cases, if not the worst, ever
admitted. From each he was dis
charged as incurable; in fact he got
worse under the successive treatments.
At enc hospital they incased him in
plaster, and this seemed to aggravate
the soreness terribly. He looked so
baGly that no one liked to go near him
and his life was burden to him. We
kept trying remedy after remedy, but
we had got almost past hoping for
cure Six months ago we purchased
q set OF Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and
Resolvent Pills and persevered with
them The result was truly marvellous
not having a blemish on it anywhere.

TWO GIRLS STOLEN.
Last Seen of Them They Were Swing
ing in a Hammock.

Kenosha, Wis, Aug. 20.-Detee-
tives today are trying to clear the
mystery surrounding the disappear
ance of Gertrude and Dorothy Behn'
daughters of Jacob Behn, one OF the
weaithiest residents of southern WIS
consin. The girls, IL and IL years
old respectively have not been seen
since their parents =sleft them swing
ing in a hammock on the lawn al
home Monday night.
It is thought they were kidnapped
and are held for ransom.
Another tangle is the receipt by
Mrs. Behn. who is the step-mother of
the missing maids. of a note several
weeks ago warning her that a plot
was on foot to steal the girls.
Members of the household say that
Monday night a closed carriage was
driven up to the Benin gate. IL Is
declared that voice was heard
sharply commanding the girls to en-
ter and that they obeyed. me
horses then were whipped and the
victims rapidly carried away. After
an unsuccessful search by relatives
and local authorities Mr.. Behn came
to Kenosha and engaged detectives TO
work on the case.
Several years ago the girls mother
died. Twelve months ago their
father married Mrs. Anna Schenken-
berg of Milwaukee. The step-mother
appears to have been well liked by
the children and not word of dis
satisfaction with their home life has
ever been uttered by them in public.
