SOOTHING WASH CURES ECZEMA.
Oil Of Wintersreen Compound Appears
to Have Solved Vexing Medical

the eczema germs.
This compound, known as D. ID. D.

proven it's efficacy, that druggists rec
ommend it ,lnhesitatingly. Years of
success and thousands of cures have
converted even those who seemed con-
WINGED that there was mo real cure for
eczema"
The sheriff Of Franklin county,
Frankfort, Ky, Mr.. w. II. Graham,
writes:
my twelve-year- old daughter had
been suffering with an aggravated
form Of Eczema for more than two
years. We had her under the care of
the best physicians here. Upon getting
no relief, we were induced to try D. D.

'.She was entirely relieved. 1t has
now been more than one year since she
ceased the use Of the Remedy, and no
sign Of the trouble has appeared. feel
very grateful"
reports indicate that all the cures
by D. D. d. Prescription are perma-

ELECTRIC LINE SEEMS CERTAIN
Balance Of Right of-Way Secured at
Grundy Center Meeting.

Special t. Times Republican.
Grundy Center. Nov. CA railroad
meeting was held here yesterday to
consider giving OF the balance of the
right of-way for the proposed electric
line from Waterloo thru here and Ell
dora to Perry Most of the right-of-
way from Eldora to this place has been
given by the respective owners of the
propel>s along which the line pro-
poses to go. The securing of the right
of-way has been made much easier by
reason of the fact that it runs along
half section lines, and rarely cuts
mans land in two. Two lines are pro-
posed from here to Eldora, one due
west and the other two miles south
of the line due west. In either event,
the prospects are excellent for this line
to be built within the next two years.
