' Some Eloquent Responses.'
Mrs. E. E. Forter of Marysvllle
made a response that was witty yet
filled with wisdom. She quoted
Judge Orosscup's recent edict that

they cannot be lawyers, because they

not be scientists, because ther can

The federation district and state
are representative democracies:
there, all proceedings are conducted
by representatives,: elected by and
sent from the local clubs. -;
In this there are analogue to our

because you know, man embraces wo

vicissitudes of life, every one should
rejoice that we have women's clubs.
Women's associated activity, Is one
of the most extraordinary phenomena
of the present age. It Is true that all
public Interests and public questions

and that the attacks of husbands,

We should discuss this subject dispas

her sentiments freely, and tndepend

body, whereupon a member, a new
member, mark you, interrupted with
the fsmark: "Huh, I think the
most of us are Republicans."
'The local club I. an example of

has the right to the full expression
of her views on any subject ub for

the right to speak and to vote as she

abreast of the times who are hoping
against hope that these ancient meth

WHY SALVES PAIL '
TO CURE ECZEMA.
They Clog the Pores Only a Liquid
Can Beach the Inner 8Un. m
Sine the old-fashioned theory ot
curing ecsema through the blood has
been given up by scientists, many
different salve have been tried for
skin diseases. But It has been found
that these salve only clog the pore
and can not penetrate to the inner
ikin below the eplderml where, the
eczema germ are lodged.
This th quality of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous
success of the only standard liquid
eczema cure, oil of wlntergreen as
compounded in p. D. D: Prescription.
Wei ourselves do sot sesltsn to
recommend D. D. D. Prescription at
11.00 a bottle, but for the benefit of
those who have never tried the pre
scription, we arranged with the D.
D. D. Laboratories of Chicago for
a (pedal large trial bottle at S6 cent
on a special offer now. This first
bottl ought to convince every suf
ferer, snd at any rate, it will surely
take swsy th Itch at once.
After ten year of eur after cure, the
world' leading skin specialist bar
accepted this as the true.ecem cur.
