My baby boy was about nine months old when
he had breaking out on his neck which was
very annoying. 1t used to MAKE him very fretful
and cross because it seemed to worry him so
much In the meantime l was sick myself. I
had my doctor look at the baby, and he told me
1t eczema and he wanted to treat it. But a
friend OF mine told me she knew it could be
cured cheaper than any doctor could do it for and
In much less time. SO i started using the Cut-
cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment which I soon
found out was what ought to have had before,
for the eczema seemed to Itch the baby could
keep his head STILL for he rubbing and
twisting all the time. I used the Cuticura Rem
edies about three times the first day and began
to notice the good it was doing, for he began to
get rest from rubbing his neck.

two boxes of Cuticura Ointment. and now no one

Club Decides.

That the present high cost of living is
an added reason for granting the ballot

the meeting of the Political Study Club
yesterday afternoon at the national SUI

west.
The club adopted the following resolu-

Whereas the ballot is the weapon that
most efficiently governs legislation; there

Resolved by the Political Study Club.
That we see in the present agitation OF
the country on the subject of the high
cost of living an added reason for the
enfranchisement Of the woman citizens
of the republic
Mrs. Frances NJ. Gregory, president
of the club. presided. Mrs. w. B. New
man was the secretary and Mrs. William
Tindall treasurer. Many members were

Letters from Fred w. Carpenter sec
rotary to the President, and Attorney
General Wickersham were read, showing
that the women in government Office may
sign women's vote petitions to Congress
without fear of losing their positions.
Mr.. Carpenters letter reads:
THE White House,
Washington, Z. c., January "A, 1910.
MY Dear Miss Iiillett: Referring to
your letter of January Is. l am directed
by the President to send you the in
closed copy of the opinion of the Attor-
ney General, In which he states that II
does not seem to him that the petition
to Congress in favor of woman suffrage
falls within the scope of executive order
1142 Very truly, yours
FIRED W. CARPENTER,
Secretary TO the President"
The following is the opinion of the At
torney General:
"Office of the Attorney General.
Washington. January 20. 1910.
THE President, the White House.
Dear Mr.. President: 1t does not seem
to me that the petition to Congress in
favor of woman suffrage falls within the
scope of executive order 1142. That order
was designed to prevent subordinateS OF
1.-THE different departments from lobbying
in Congress for legislation affecting their
relation to the government. but l do not
think 1t was intended to prevent clerk
in department from signing a petition
to Congress to enact general legislation
affecting the status of a large class of
the community. Whether not women
should be allowed to vote is a broad SUBJ
ject, which does not interfere with the
particular status of special employees in
the departments, and therefore, in my
opinion, the petition referred to in Miss
Gil!etts letter does not fall within the
prohibition of executive order No. 1142.
Respectfully,
GEO W. W1CKERsHAM.
Attorney General
