The trouble lasted eleven weeks. “1 tried a lot of different oint- ments without any benefit. I heard # lot about Cuticura Soapand Oint- ment so purchased some, and in a short time.J was completely healed.” (Signed) Miss Mary Taylor, 35 Metcalf Ave., Lymans- ville, R. 1. july 8, 1924 Nothing quicker or safer than Cuticura Soap and Ointment for skin troubles that itch and burn, CHECKERS C EVERYWHERE ¢ el g eSS tonight.

Progress in matters spiritual as well as material will be striven for, said the first woman governor of the state, She also advised that many women wotild be invited to take part in the administration. “Recognizing and freely admit- {ing my inexperience in govern- mental affairs,” she said, “I must ask the advice and counsel of others. Perhaps this would not be a bad idea for others to adopt, even though their training and learning may be more than mine. 1 shall endeavor to make this administra- tion a success by teamwork. There is so much to do that no one mind can bring relief to the people, Higher Standards * “If the cxample can be sct for a higher stafidard of morals and purity of life and conduct in public servants of the people, I shall feel my administration has not been in vain. more glorious to lay Heaven than on earfh. “We women haye been recognized and admitted into all the rights and privileges: of citizenship. Let us give our state the best that is in u¢, not so much because we are women, but because we are citizens who are now to stand side by side with men upon the foundation of | equal rights and equal justice.” Friendly co-operation among members of the official family was urged. “While our government is divided into three distinct parts,” she said, “the judicial, the legislative, and the executive, vet I hope and pray that there is to be the friendliest co- operation on the part of each that will Inspire the confidence of the people in the administration of their affairs.
