kU kLUx kLAN'S WARNING TO
ITS VICTIMS.

The Ku Klux Klan's warning to in
tended victims was three dried peac.
Singular, but the order itself was sing
ular and did nothing after convention
al lines. These would be sent the
marked man at intervals and no word
to accompany them. If he were re-
siding in the south during those
troublesome days, he would know the
significance of those mysterious, but
seemingly harmless peas and If he
were guilty of a misdeed against eth.
er the cause of the south, and of it's
traditions or the silent, deadly band
who thus remembered him, his days
were surely numbered and there was
no escape from their vengeance bu:
by death at his own hand-and sci.
dom was there that.
One dared not breathe the name Of
the organization for fear his nearest
neighbor might belong to- 1t and many
a man suddenly disappeared because
Of unguardedly making careless re.
mark about the Ku Klux Khan.
When first hastily gotten together,
1t is said, these modern knights ely.
rolled the best and noblest blood in
the old South, but after their specific
mission was completed and stable
law regulated the rights of the south
ern people, their services were no Ion
ger required and they disbanded, then
the hoodlums and desperate charac-
tiers of the land took up the order and
used It to cover their own deeds. thus
bringing down upon the name OF tho
"Clansman" the odious reputation
hey have ever since borne.
Many blood curdling tales were toll:
o ftheir doings and secret and dead
ly workings.
The rides and rescues of the Ku
Klux so graphically, dramatically set
forth in The Firth of a Nation are
those of the original, right-enforcing
organization of true sons of the Old
South.
The Birth of a Nation will be the
offering at the Auditorium Theatre on

article did not fulfill the promises OF
the manufacturer. This applies more
particularly to medicine. A medi-
cinal preparation that has real cur
alive value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy
is recommended by those who have
been benefited, to those who are In
need of It. .
A prominent druggist says "Take
for example DR.. kilmer's Swamp.
Root, a preparation I have sold for
many years and never hesitate to
recommend, for in almost every case
it shows excellent results, as man,
of my customers testify. No other
kidney remedy that l know of has SO
large sale."
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who
have used the preparation, the sue
cess of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp.Root Is
due to the fact that, so many people
claim it fulfills almost every wish in
overcoming kidney, liver and bladder
ailments corrects urinary troubles and
neutralizes the uric acid which caus-
es rheumatism.
