Proclamation.
The American people should gratefully render
Thanksgiving and praise to the Supreme Ruler
OF the universe who has watched over them
with kindness and fostering care during the
year that has passed: they should also with
humility and faith supplicate the Father of All
Mercies, for continued blessing according to

the land
On that day let our ordinary work and BUSH
ness be suspended, and let US meet in our &C
customed places of worship and give thanks to
Almighty God for our preservation as a nation,
for our immunity from diseases and pes
thence. for the harvests that have rewarded
our huSbandry, for a renewal of national pros
telligence that has marked our growth as
people.
And with our thanksgiving let US pray that
these blessings may be multiplied unto US,
that our national conscience may be quickened
to better recognition of the power and good
ness of God that in our national life we may
clearer see and closer follow the path of
righteousness.
And in our places of worship and praise, as
well as in the happy reunions of kindred and
friends. on that day let us invoke Divine ap-
proval by generously remembering the poor and
needy.
Surely He who has given ms comfort and
plenty will look upon our relief of the destitute
and our illustrations of charity as the work of
hearts truly grateful and proofs of the sim
certify of our Thanksgiving.
Witness my hand and the seal OF the United
States on the first day of November in the
year of our Lord eighteen hundred and ninety
four, and of the independence of the United
States the one hundred and nineteenth.

open delight, probably unparalleled in

fectionate tone is freely compared with
that of the proclamation published
upon the accession of Emperor Will

Dispatches from Moscow say that
oppressive stiffness and mournful ex-
pectation overhang that city. Thea
tiers and other places of amusement,
banks and exchanges have been closed
and business is at standstill.

exander III. will lie in state at Kief
and Moscow before it will be brought

A STYLISH BACK.
Stoop Shoulders Do Not Go Well With This
Seasons Fashions.

stoop Shoulders Do Not Go Well With This
Seasons Fashions.
''Cultivate an air."
Cultivate a back. The STYLES of this
winter are not meant for stoop-should-
cred persons or rounded backs. OF
course such women can try to wear
them, but no matter how rich the
gowns and wraps. they will not have
any style or 'air" about their appear
ance.
An lair" is the best endowment a
woman may have. She may be rich,
but a failure in appearance. She may
be given a face like q houri's, but if
she hasn't an ''air'' she isn't a complete
success.
One important feature of an s'air' is
'back.'' A ''back' is within reach of
almost any woman. When you have
learned how to stand, every morni ng
after your bath take the correct stand
ing position. If you have chest weights,
use those. If not, throw the shoulders
firmly back till the blades almost meet.
Do that number of times. Then put
them well back, draw a deep, full
breath and make the rotary motion
with the shoulder joint that is made in
rowing. Repeat this whole programme
q dozen times.
Preserve the correct position of the
knees, legs, back and shoulders when
walking, and remember to think while
you are walking and draw deep, long
breaths very often. Persist in this and
you will be surprised to see the change
in the shape of your back. Instead Of
padding the top of the backs of your
dresses because the curves are low down
even with the bust line your dress
maker will be compelled to omit it anu
fit the backs of your dresses to give
you more breathing space.
You will be on the road to acquiring
that fine shapely back which is the re
ward of women who spend dollars in
gymnasiums and swimming baths to
acquire it. Insist, moreover. that your
dressmaker shall give you room across
the top of the backs of your dresses. II
you do this your waist will seem more
slender by contrast.
When you acquire a back then You
may find yourself in the possession OF
the stylish appearance you have long
wanted. Philadelphia Times
