Gentlemen: In the course of six years during
which 1 suffered untold agony from Eczema on
the hands and feet, I spent if>00 to $600 with th#
best sum specialists in Chicago. I should gladly
have spent many times that if I could have been
cured, for the constant itching and burning
drove me almost to distraction and made life
not worth living. A brother conductor. Mr.
Edward Cain of West Chicago. 111., who had
suffered from salt rheum and tetter for twenty
years called my attention to D. D. D. I started
to use it and received instant relief from the
terrible itching. This made me happy, but I
found that the Eczema eruption instead of dis
appearing seemed to spread. I was told that it
was sometimes a symptom after D. D. D. was
tir't applied, and so I continued to apply the
remedy and got at least relief from the itch for
the time being. Since then. I am glad to say.
D. D. 1). has worked wonders, for the Eczema
gradually disappeared and I am now completely
cured. SIMON CROWLEY
Conductor Wisconsin Division, Northwestern
Railway.
That D D. D. has cured all these people
whose letters we published there can be
no doubt, and D. D. D. will just as surely
cure you. No matter how severe or of how
long standing your skin trouble may be.
We absolutely guarantee this and will re
fund you every cent you pay for D. D. D.
if you are not cured. Don't delay, fora
minor skin trouble may quickly develop
into fearful itching Eczema. Go today and
get a $1.00 bottle of D. D. D. and your
cure will be assured.

Fate of a Candidate for the Ku Klux
Klan.
(Washington Post.)
An ex-Confederate soldier who serv
ed in the Southern army with disting
uishing gallantry was telling a group
I in the Riggs House some interesting
| stories of the davs that followed the
! surrender of Lee.
T went to Memphis to live,” said

I of those who helped organize the Ku
Klux Klan. I have never been
i ashamed of my connection with the
celebrated organization for it did a
tremendous lot of good in Tennessee.
\ Gen. N. B. Forrest, the greatest cav
alry chief who ever rode into battle,
| was supreme commander of the 'K. K.
! K.,’ and whenever Forrest issued an
! order it was obeyed to the letter. The
! order had a Supreme Court, of which
: Gen. Albert Pike, the illustrious Ma
son, was chief justice, and this court,
I always sifted testimony for and
against any accused person before
punishment was inflicted. Two prom
inent newspaper editors of Memphis
were also members of the court. The
total membership in the regularly or
ganized Ku Klux Klaus of Tennessee
was not less than 72,000, and never in
the history of the world were men
more closely banded or more loyal to
each other.
“I was a member of the ‘klan’ for
at least five years, and my separation
from it was caused by a change of
residence. In that time I am positive
that the sentence of death was in
flicted upon but three men, which
goes to to show that the Ku Klux did
not mete out summary vengeance on
small offenders. Nor were its mem
bers, except in rare instances, citi
zens of low repute. On the contrary,
only men of good character were in
vited to join, and Gen. Forrest was
particular in seeing that only those of
discretion and temperate habits were
made members.
“But Tennessee at the time of the
existence of the Ku Klux was in^ra.li-
cal hands; scalawags and carpetbag
gers ruled the land to its sorrow, and
Parson Brownlow, then Governor, had
a law passed which made it a capital
offence for any man to he convicted
of ku kluxing or belonging to the or
der. He even imported detectives
from Chicago, who were instructed to
find out all about the mysterious band
which sent fort a its warning in let
ters ornamented with skulls and cross-
bones ami daggers, and whose doings
struck terror to the hearts of white
and black miscreants alike.
"One of these detectives came on to
Nashville. He was a bright fellow
and ambitious to make a rqcord.
Brownlow gave him his orders, and
he set out to discover things by pre
tending to l)e a rabid Southerner,
who was keenly anxious to become a

about the man and his plans, and gave
it out that he should he taken througn

Kept Their Clothes Dry.
Back in the ’50’s, when Abraham
Lincoln was little more than an ob-
rcure country lawyer, he was fond of
a joke. At one time he made the late
Judge Stephen T. Logan the butt of
one and came near being placed un
der the displeasure of the court for.
the deed.
While riding with a cavalcade of
lawyers who went with the jurist
around the circuit. Lincoln was going
from Lincoln. Logan county, to Dela-
van, Tazewell county, both in Illinois.
A marsh was encountered on the Dela-
van prairie. The expanse of water
before them was about half a mile
wide, and nearly all the lawyers be
lieved that Salt Lake creek had broken
its banks and formed a new channel.
Lincoln knew better, and thought this
an opportune time to get a joke on
the judge and his brother lawyers. So
he pretended to join in the general be
lief of the party, and said;
“This is a pretty mess! Now we
either shall have to swim the river or
go twelve miles out of the way to
find a bridge.”
“How can we safely swim this swol
len stream?” one of the riders asked.;
“There is only one safe way.” sug
gested Lincoln. “We must remove all |
our clothing and tie it on our backs!
to keep it dry, then ride through.”
“But, Mr. Lincoln," said .Bulge Lo-1
gan, “this indeed would be a most un- ;
dignified manner of doing anvthing.” j
“Very well, your honor,” said Lin.-,
coin, “you may stand upon ceremony; j
but I intend to have a dry suit on;
when I get to Delavan.”
Fitting his action to his words, the
lanky lawyer began to disrobe. Others!
followed promptly, and by the time all
were ready for the plunge the dignified
jurist had stripped himself. The rid
ers, led by Lincoln, bent up their legs,
like half-opened jack-knives, and with
light reins and urging their steeds on
to a swim they reached the other side.
At no time was the water deep enough
to more than wet the fetlocks of their 1
horses’ feet.
Lincoln looked toward the learned
judge and received a withering glance'
that took a wav all desire to even
smile. He feared the explosion tlyit
evidently was near at hand, so he
thought to head it off.
“Judge, do you think a bridge across
that stream would seriously interfere
with navigation?” was his query.
