WHY SALVES FAIL
TO CURE ECZEMA
They Clog the Pores-Only Liquid
Can Reach the Inner Skin.

Since the old-fashioned theory of
curing eczema through the blood
Las been given up by scientists,
many different salves have been
tried for skin diseases. But it has
,een found that these salves only
clog the pores and can not penetrate
to the inner skin below the epider-
r-is where the eczema germs are
lodged.
Thistle quality of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous
success Of the only standard liquid
eczema cure, oil Of wintcrgreen as
compounded in ID. d. d. Prescrip-
ticn. After ten years of cure after
cure, the worlds leading skin spe-
cialsts have accepted this as the
tire eczema cure.
We our-elves do not hesitate to
recommend ID. d. D. Prescription at
$100 a bottle, but for the benefit of
those who have never tried the pre-
scription, we have arranged with the
d. ID. ID. Laboratories Of Chicago
for a special large trial bottle at 25
cents on a special offer now, This
fret bottle ought TO convince every
sufferer, and, at any rate, it will
surely take away the itch at once.

MRS. LEDBETER
IS SET FREE
State Supreme Court Rules
She Cannot be Tried a
Second Time.
Minneapolis Journal. May 10.

Minneapolis journal, May 49,
Miss Emma Grace Ledbeter of
Mankato. who was acquitted in De-
cember last on a charge of murder
ing her husband, Holland J. Led
better. cannot be tried again on a
murder charge. The supreme court
today ordered the discharge Of Mrs.
Ledbeter, who is under Indictment
in Mankato on a charge of murder
in the second degree.
In May 1909. the body Of Holland
j. Ledbeter was found buried on the
Ledbeter farm near Mankato, Frank
Smith, hired man, in confession,
duplicating Mrs. Ledbeter in the
crime. Smith was convicted and
sent to prison for life, but a jury
acquitted Mrs. Ledbeter.
Public sentiment in Mankato was
not satisfied and Mrs. Ledbeter was
lreindicted on a charge of murder in
the second degree. Her attorneys
advanced plea Of former jeopardy
and asserted she could not be tried
twice for the same crime. Attor-
neys for the state responded that
the first was mistrial owing to the
relationship of the presiding Judge,
Judge A. r. Pau, Sr., to Mrs. Led
beter's attorney, A. r. Pfau. Jr.,
Judge Pfau's son, Attention was
called to the state law which provides
that a judge shall not sit at trial
| if he might be excluded. Relation
ship to the ninth degree is ground
for a challange for bias under Min
nesota law.
THE supreme court in it's decision
says that while Judge Pau could,
under the law have been prevented
from sitting at the trial, the attor-
neys for the state. knowing that
Mrs. Ledbeter's attorney was Judge
Pfau's son. made no objection. This
fact and the fact that holding the
case a mistrial might invalidate
many cases which have been tried
and settled. is given as reason for
the opinion, which is written by
Chief Justice Charles M. Stewart.

good citizen. The funeral was from
