Municipal Art League Goes on
Record for Such a
Proposition.

The Municipal Art League, of East
Orange, went on record at its annual
meeting on Saturday night in English's
for the establishment of police, fire and
water commissions, a recommendation
of the board of governors.
The league further renewed it's agita-
ton for the collection of garbage and
ashes from The back of houses. The
extension of Ashland avenue, so as 10
allow for the Building of a crosstown
trolley line, was also favored. Presi-
dent George X. Howe, who was re-
elected for the sixth time, urged on all
members OF the league the necessity of
attending the special election next
week. 80 many voters are so indif-
ferent to their civic duty that they

East Orange cannot grow in any
direction, and this Is a peculiar con-
dition. The crosstown trolley line in
the First ward takes our citizens to
Orange and the other lines take them
to Newark. But there Is no trolley line
to bring our people from the First to
the Third ward. And there Is only one
street that runs unbroken through
both.

autos have volunteered TO get out and
endeavor to get votes for their favor
ties on the Peoples or the Citizens
tickets.
On the eve of election leaders and
followers of both parties are calming
victory.
Robert E. Amin, chairman of the
Citizens executive committee, says that
the "Cits'' entire ticket win win by "a
majority of close on to 100. He figures
that the First district will go TO this
Peoples by a majority of 100; the Cts
will win the second by a majority OF
at least 100, and the third district will
give the Citizens a majority of close
to 100.
Kip Confident
Ira A. Kip. jr, candidate for presi-
lent ON the Citizens ticket, says hat
he will get two votes to every ono
secured by his opponent, Charles z.

any figures. Edward A. Wallace, a
member of the executive COMMITTEES OF
the Peeps claims a victory for the
entire ticket by a larger majority thar
the one received by the Peoples men
last year--1s0. Village Trustee John Il.
Weeks is of the opinion a majority %
nearly as much as last year will be
given the Peoples candidates. and
Charles e. Souther is sure of de-
feating Kip for the presidency.

CUTlCURA REMEDIES
CURED HER AT LAST

When was four years old hunor
came out on my scalp It would make
q thick scab in one night, itching and
burning terribly. My father spent
many hundreds Of dollars trying to find
a doctor who could cure this hunor,
but none Of them could ever help it even
a little bit. At the age of fifteen years
! had the measles, and after that the
sore became maturated and had to
soak my hair out before l could comb it.
My hair came of in spots and my head
was in a bad shape.
About this time a friend Of my
father suggested he try Cuticura for me,
My father took this advice and bought
the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment
and CuticuTa Resolvent. I used them
faithfully and to my surprise they
stopped the itching at once, like cold
water to burn. In a week my head
was clean from the scab but was very
red and inf1amed, but had experienced
more relief from the terrible itching and
burning than ever before. l did not ex-
pect to be cured, as / thought that moth
ing could do that, but had to use some
thing all the time and Cuticura was
cheaper than doctors.
After some time, to my surprise,
awoke to the fact that my head was
cured. 1t was as free from the disease
as though had never suffered. / am
now forty-two and have never had any
sign Of my old trouble since was cured.
I owe health, happiness and life to
Cuticura. Every one thought it was in
durable. I used to dream sometimes
that was cured but thought it never
could be, but Cuticura made the dream
come true. Fancy a child sitting up in
bed until ten or eleven O'Clock scratch
ing her head I couldn't help it either,
the itching was so terrible, night and
dav. It is a wonder lived through it,
but can prove all have written by my
cid neighsoors. Mrs. Florence r. Ames
