For a time many residents were panic stricken Order was restored today HIS ECZEMA GONE Eczema Began When Three Weeks Old Arms Shoulders and Breast a Solid Scab Boils Broke Out During Teething Used Cuticura Soap and Ointment and He Was the Picture of Health jf fit My son was ibout thiee weeks old when 1 noticed a breaking out on his cheeks from which a watery substance coxed A short time after his arms thoulderi and breast brokt out also and in a few days became a solid scab I became alarmed and called our family physician who at once pronounced the disease VrXl6 eczema The little fellow was under his treatment for about three months by the end of that time he seemed no better I became discourared I dropped the doctors treatment and commenced the use of Cuticura Soap and Ointment and

frigid soneof his recent labors He was quite skillful in politics up New York State way prior to his Alaskan adventures but now he displays some en thusiasm over New Jersey political af iairs After the governor has enthused to his friends about the redemption of Jersey next year they are modestly informed that he has taken up a residence i in the State and can acquire a voters privilege before the next presidential election Unlike many other Republicans who have lived their entire lives in Jersey Hoggatt is not overwhelmed by the present power of Gov Woodrow Wilson and feels that a little of the old time activity on the part of Republicans will put the Wilson presidential proposition into a lasting state of sleep In fact the Hoggatt view of New Jersey is that the State presents a more cheerful situation for next year than New York and even that State shows signs of Republican recuperation Thanks in great part to the Woodrow Wilson activity and his presidential aspirations backed so cleverly by Col George Harvey and the Harper publications each political move mado by either party in New Jersey attracts attention at the Washington end of the political game Each day sees a bunch of Democratic visitors at the Wlllard and in the Capitol corridors the one theme being next years presidential campaign with a few sarcastic remarks about the general demoralization of the Jersey Republicans The ecstatic rejoicing of the Democrats does not alarm all the Republicans of the Jersey dominion and the arrival of the Hon Franklin Murphy member of the Republican national committee from the State gives another story and some Republican hope Murphy has been governor and he was a steadfast student in politics during the days of Vice President Hobart and other eminent Republicans who handled things in the days of the McKlnley and Mark Hanna supremacy in Republican politics Gov Murphy has been In the South but he has kept closely in touch with things at home and feels that a little sensible getting together will enable Jersey Republicans to line up in the national convention next year with the promise that the victories of other years will be repeated in 1912 Even now the quiet style of work is going on to make sure of a delegation from the State to the next national gathering and pains will be taken to have an old fashioned list of big men who will back up the campaign with work and cash The Dem ocratic iiouse memDers irom the State who came in with last Novembers slide sneer at the Murphy hopefulness and point with pride to the continued stirring up of Democratic sentiment In the State each week and almost owrv riott by the holding of meetings dollar dinner Danqueis ana tne irequent visits of members of Congress to their districts Last night there was a fresh bubbling over of confidence by the Jersey Democratic contingent in Congress as the Storv was tnH nf tVio Xnl which was addressed by Representatives euuiiey or Illinois and Stanley of Kentucky These two distinguished Democrats were escorted to and from No wort by Representatives Townsend and Mccoy new members of the delegation and there Was 10V uncnnflnen tha onno of the affair were handed out to Demo crats of other States It was remarked at this endvthat Representative Stanley made a creat hit when ho pnmnoMii Roosevelt to Alexander Hamilton and put every other Republican leader of the present age into a back row of seats Your new ImDerlalist is strpnmmo speech and fickle In performance was the sentence of the Stanley speech most quoted last night bv the returning hrax eo in the tavern corridors Much questioning failed to reveal that the visiting representatives joined with the Jersey entertainers tn bnoatlnp the Wllom nut dentlal ambition but the excuse was made that the TVsstArn mAmh nioht be weighted down with snmi nrnmlcoc fn candidates from their own section James Nugent the State chairman tn Jersey is expected in Washington ere long to gather information and Join with his congressional coterie in fomenting we entnusiasm lor Wilson as a presidential quantity Onlv two weeks atro TuriVo wmiom Ogden a noted Republican leader of Texas was in Washington nnri nva a cheerful talk about the Republican or ganization in his State with some promises about the efforts of To rna pnh licans for President Tafts future politi cal success with Judge Ogden during his visit was Green the millionaire railroad man and son nf Wottt Green and he too as a voter in Texas and a one time delegate to a national convention backed up the Ogden predic tions or increased Republican activity in the Lone Star State Because of the recent visit of Judee Oeden anct hi in ferences with other Texans here in Wash ington there was the greater shock to the Washington end when word came yesterday that Judge Ogden had dropped dead In his home In San Antonio He had been in apparently good health and had planned another visit to Washington this spring Judge Ogdens death loses President Taft a strong supporter in Texas and one who would have been a delegate to the next national convention and possibly a member of the national committee Senator OGorman of New York returned to Washington last night after a busy time in New York looking after both private and political affairs It is especially cheering to the Tammany members of Congress that Senator OGorr man remains Joyal to the Tammany managers in New York and his last day at home was given in part to a conference with Murphy the Tammany head chief It was also told on the senators arrival In Washington that he will sail with his family late In May for a summer in Europe He had engaged pas I sage long before his election to the Senate and does not feel like giving up the trip and the restful season with his family From now on Senator OGorman i will have a regular secretary who was I chosen during the senators latest visit i home This new secretary is Francis Vln cent de Sales Oliver who has been chief of Mayor Gaynors bureau ol licenses in Gotham like his new chief i Secretary Oliver is making a financial sacrifice in coming to Washington The senator was drawing a salary of 17500 as judge and gave it up for the 7500 salary of a senator Oliver has been drawing 3600 a year In New York and will start In on 2000 at the senatorial offices The comment Is frequent that both senator and secretary are sure enough patriots Senator Theodore Burton of Ohio is much more Interested just now in the Lake Mohonk conference on international arbitration due next month than in what Is doing or planned in Ohio politics The senator is preparing a speech for the conference and will tell the story of a century which has passed without war between the United States and England John Foster once of Indiana and Secretary of State under President Harrison is to discuss the treaty of arbitration now pending In the Senate The Mohonk conference will be attended by many great men of Canada and the United States and the actual politics of Ohio and other Commonwealths will be forgotten The recent visitors from Ohio especially Republicans continue gloomy that they receive little encouragement at this end The Republican House membership is so small that little can be done and there is a demand for a genera convocation of Ohio Republican lead ers In Washington early in May The suggestion is made that President Taft himself can assemble two or more really active Republicans from each congressional district and give them at least an afternoon reception and luncheon at the White House This would be impressive to the State and arouse interest in next years campaign The Idea is for a general going over of the home situation with a view to aiding the President and there promises to be a serious demand for just such a gathering The conference could include the members of the Republican State central committee and a few other leaders including both Senators Foraker and Dick also Warren Harding late defeated candidate for governor This proposed assembling of Ohio Republicans is much approved by the visitors from the State and especially approved by Ohio Republicans holding office in town Until the resignation of Robert Lincoln from the presidency of the Pullman Company as announced yesterday it was known only to a few personal friends that he had spent much time in Washington during the last few weeks He was one of several former cabinet officials who look upon Washington as a haven of rest and he did not seek to take part in politi cal or social gatherings Independent of his having been a member of a Presidents cabinet Robert Lincoln as the only surviving son of President Lincoln always attracts attention and he is rather inclined to retirement Since he left official life in 1897 he has been at the head of the sleeping car company and has declined to figure in politics Very often since his service in the cabinet he has been urged a3 a candl date for President but has declined Edward Murphy of Troy who served as United States senator only a few years ago came this way with the promised advent of spring and while an old man past the three score and ten limit of the prophet retains much interest in home politics and congressional happenings He has no hankering for politics on his own account but rejoices over last years Democratic victories along with all other Democrats of New York While Senator Murphy was not 1 siven iio araiorytana axgwnenti miring his stay in the Senatehe kept watchful for Ws State and partyrbptficfitx Albany and Washington overlooking no request from any constituent rich or humblo He practically retired from politics a few years ago with the intention of growing old gracefully and enjoys an occasional lb6klng ta uponthe congressional scenes Senator Beverldge Is the one Republican from Indiana who insists tHere ire no factions within his party in that State There is a momentary numbness in the cerebrums of the faithful Republican Hoosiers now in Washington when they 1 hear such a statement from the Hon Albert Jeremiah but he Insists that the real voters the dear people are not at all divided into factions and must not be classed with a few politicians So It happens that Beverldge remains hopeful about Indiana getting right Vagal next year and those who think he may not be active In the proceedings are jentltled to think again It is the suggestion of Beverldgethat Republicans in other States i do not appreciate the sort of contest that was on in Indiana last year and that 800 votes properly distributed In different close counties would have elected a Republican legislature and sent Bev eridge back to the Senate There is something delightfully frank in the Beverldge admission that he was not exactly pleased with the recent appointment of a United States marshal in Indiana The former senator commends the appointee personally but remains loyal to Chairman Lee of the State committee who was indorsed for the appointment before the senator became a private citizen The delay lessened the value of the senatorial indorsement and then the deference of the administration to the member of the Republican national committee aided in the turning down of Lee and thY selection of a new candidate for marshal Yet with it all Beverldge continues cheerful and has no Word of complaint against the administration After a short study of the reciprocity proposition in Canada Senator Beverldge may write a few articles that will greatly aid and please the administration and even make the President sorry that the senatorial approbation of a candidate in Indiana was turned aside SOCIAL SETS OF OTHER CITIES ACTRESS SUES PEEST0N GIBSON tS Heart a fa Rome am falks thy Barbara Bojjd THE ROAD TO BEAUTY iBST sT xPr A Frenchmans Recipe for Beauty fa A French psychologist says women are growing more beautiful and will continue to grow more beautiful because they are Interested in so many more things than formerly He say3 that if themind keeps alert active and interested the body will improve This is a road to beauty that will appeal to many women more than does the massage and face cream route And with the knowledge we are gaining of the power of the mind over the body theVe seems to be sound scientific reason for the psychologists statement the beauty most women sigh for especially when it is gone is the beauty of youth Analyzed what is this Is it not a slim pretty figure a fresh unlined face but most of all high spirits enthusiasm a keen Interest In life And what is there In all this that a woman cannot keep or regain if she will It all comes back to her attitude of mind toward life As age comes on women are apt to grow mdolent They ride Instead of walk They sit around and sew and sleep All this soon shows in the figure They do not stand erect and their back gets bowed Signs of age So called yes But why Because they permit these signs of age to be written over them If they would walk tramp skate play tennis even if they were forty or more their figure would continue to be slim and pretty A certain woman nearly fifty and who has grandchildren does all these things and her figure is as slender and graceful as a girls of eighteen It all simmers down to keeping young mentally and the body follows by keeping young physically Not only does this active life keep the figure youthful but by keeping the circulation of the blood good and consequently the appetite keen It keeps the complexion fresh and pretty But more Important than mere physical beauty In the sum total of attractiveness is charm And charm lays hold not only of the physical bit of the mental So that the woman who really wants beauty of the highest order needs on all counts to consider herself mentally Today mere physical beauty does not win from thinking men and women the deepest admiration So that In keeping her mind alert a woman Is not only im proving her physical charms as has been shown but she is adding to them a force far more potent in winning regard The SS 9 young inexperienced girl no matter how beautiful cannot rnmnnro In ottmMfcii ness with the equally youthful looking woman interested ana well Informed oh all questions of the day So that the woman who craves beauty because beauty brings many of the best things Of life to th one dowprd rnUV and who doesnt ear to spek it thmiio the usual beauty parlor will find it in an enjoyaoie way Dy tne road or the mind She should go about reachlns it In a happy whole souled fashion The con ceuea dictatorial oiue stocking who thinks she knows everything and nobody else anything will not find it Nor wW the woman who Improves herself mentally as a duty ane is apt to look upon it all as a bore and a grind All these states of mind show in tne face and are anything but beautiful But the woman who is genuinely interested who is alive and alert In everv fiber of her holntr is happy because she can be in touch with me in an oi us pnases win De a radiant charming attractive woman The mind is the matter The bodyIs the servant If the mind is beautlfuY the body will show forth this beautif mentality 7va
