Oil Treatment for
Stomach Sufferers

A simple prescription made up of a
combination of pure vegetable oils is
producing wonderful results for suf-
ferers from stomach, liver and intes-
final troubles. The remedy, which is
said to have originated in France,
where it has been used for years by
the peasantry, was introduced into
this country by George H. Mayr, a
leading Chicago druggist, who cured
himself of severe stomach, liver and
intestinal troubles by its use. Those
who have used it say the first dose is
sufficient to convince anyone of it's re-
markable merit, and that within "a
hours the sufferer feels like a new
person. This medicine, which has be-
come known as Mayr's Wonderful
Stomach Remedy. is now sold BY ffrst
class druggists everywhere. It II
now sold here by Bell q Robinson,
and druggists everywhere.

For week endlng July D, III 4.
Des Moines, Iowa.
Ideal weather prevailed during the
last seven days for haying and har-
vesting fall wheat, rye and early
oats, and the time was well improv-
ed. The average temperature was
about four degrees below the normal
and only few light, scattered show
ers occurred Practically all of the
winter wheat. rye and early oats are
in shock in the southern counties,
and the work is we'll advanced in the
central districts. Haying was gener-
al and the crop is being put up in fine
condition. The yield is however, con-
siderably below normal in southern
districts hut is fair to good over the
central and northern counties. The
bulk of the corn has been laid by in
good condition, and the crop as a
whole, is week to ten day in ad
vance of the average for this time of
the year. Much of it is showing tas-
sells in the southern part of the state
but will soon need rain in those Sec
done Threshing has begun in the
south and will begin in the central
districts during the coming week.
Early potatoes are generally small
and have only a few in hill. Pas
lures are in fine condition, except in
the southern counties, where rain is
badly needed for all growing crops
and to replenish the water supply,
which is getting short.
The following is summary show
ing the average condition of crops on
July LIST, as compared with the aver
age condition on that date in past
years: Corn 1902 per cent; oats "a;
spring wheat 90; winter wheat 95;

Forty-Year-Old Mystery Yet UnsOlv-
ed.

Any person having knowledge of
the whereabouts of Charles Brewster
Ross, aged forty-four, will confer a
favor by nOtifying-almOsta anybody,
anywhere. The whole civilized world
is interested in the fate of Charlie
Ross, who was abducted forty years
ago from his home in Germantown,
Philadelphia. Some of the best de-
tectives and newspaper sleuths of the
United States, Canada and Europe
have sought to solve the mystery of
the disappearance of this four-year-
old boy, but all have failed. Number
less clews have been followed, and
although some of them shed light on
the motives of the child's kidnappers,
Charlie Ross himself was never
found. Both of his parents are dead,
lily continue to receive letters relat-
ing to the mysterious case.
Charles Brewster Ross was the son
of Christian K. and Sarah Ann Ross,
well-to-do and respected Philadel-
phians. On the first of July, 1874,
Charlie was playing with his nine
year old brother, Walter, near the
Ross home. when they were accosted
by two men in buggy, who offered
to give them a ride. The lads were
1T first reluctant, but when the add
cd lure Of candy was held out they
could not resist. After the vehicle
had gone a short distance, Walter
was given some money to buy Fourth
C July crackers, and was told to get
out. That was the last of Charlie
Ross, so far as any certain knowledge
is concerned.
The kidnappers demanded ran
som of $4,000, making their offer
through newspaper advertisements
and by letters. Mr.. Ross found it i'm
possible at that time to raise the
sum asked, but friends, and even
strangers, offered to contribute to
the fund The whole world sympa-
thizcd with the bereaved parents,
and if money could have saved Char.
lie Ross. it would have been forth
coming in almost any amount. The
abductors were frightened by the
storm of public wrath they had rails
cd, and realizing that they could not
get the money without risk of arrest,
they finally dropped the negotiations.
Most of the communications were
mailed in Trenton, Newark and
Elizabeth, but it was the belief of
the police that the child had been
taken to Canada, or possibly to En-
gland. The police of Canadian and
English cities Joined in the search.
Not day passed without its clew,
and the distracted father made trips
to Canada, Europe and California to
see boys who were thought to be his
son.
In the December following Charlie
Ross abduction two New York river
pirates were shot while engaged in
burglary in Brooklyn. One of them
was instantly killed, but the other
survived a little while, and with his
dying breath said something of
which only Charlie Ross" was intel
|ligible. 1t was then found that the
police of New York and Philadelphia
had suspected these two criminals.
