'What 1 like about women's dress just now
is its suggestiveness of the attention that is
paid to the under side of things remarked
a masculine critic q hke the pretty lining
that one catches a glimpse of under the ripple
of jacket, or the displaced folds of cloth

and lace trimmings, that show every now and

in the latest fashion you may discard the
flutes which have been worn so long at the
back of the jacket, and resort to the new
dCublb box plaits pressed down fiat. They are
very full, however, so the lining Of silk
which is always in some pretty contrast
shows plainly in the folds. Very pretty
gowns, too, for street wear are these with
skirts of some inexpensive wool material and
waists Of Oriental patterned velveteen or silk
made in the simple full blouse fashion, with
four-inch gathered frill around the tips and
belt and collar of plain satin ribbon. Mo-
hair serges, tweed silk, and wool goods, and
mcire poplin are the materials most en-
plcyed for these skirts, and all the new va
rieties of canvas and grenadine are the popu-
lar stuffs for more dressy gowns with the
exception of fowered silks. The fine quail
ties of canvas, which are much like grena-
dine, come in all the pretty shades of gray
and tan; and made over coored changeable
silks they are the most tempting gowns of all.
Pale gray, with blue lining and an odd
collar Of dull blue silk embroidered in dark
blue black, and silver with frills of gray
chiffon around the edge, is very effective.
Fancy capes are sometimes made to match
these gowns, and they short and very
full with ruffles of chiffon around the edge.
One pretty novelty of this sort has an inner
cape of taffeta silk like the lining and the
chiffon rufles are sown on the edge of this,
showing little below the outside cape. En-
b1oidered ecru batiste and lace are both used
in this way, but the trimming must match
that on the gown.
Blue canvas, lined with shot orange silk,
and trimmed the waist with stripes Of
copper, gold and silver embroidery is very
good style, and a dark blue alpaca gown has
a plain waist with a blouse front opening
wide over another blouse Of changeable green
and blue silk, embroidered on either edge
with green and gold braid. This in turn is

Art in the school Room.

At the meeting of the Brooklyn Cambridge
club, Mrs. Truman K. Backus said in refer
ence to art education, that the Importance of
the movement an educational factor should
be recognized by all Not only would the
presence of school rooms of works of art,
showing graceful and beautiful lines, be of as
sistance in drawing but they would also af-
ford great opportunity for advancing the study
of history and patriotic education. For $25 or
$50 school rooms could be decorated with small
works of art, and the alumni of the boys high
school intend to furnish room in this way in
their alma mater. Other high and private
schools will follow their example. The women
of the Brooklyn club, through their art COM
mittee, intend to furnish a room in some
school where they think there is an especial
need for such gift

In Washington number of society girls
have formed club with most laudable
object. It's purpose is to impress upon young
men with social aspirations that they cannot

are worth knowing unless they, the young
men, lead correct lives The society is un-
sectarian. and is called the Equal Standard
Purity club" 1t has drawn up a solemn
pledge that must be signed by each member
1t reads: Il solemnly promise, by the help Of
God, to hold the law of purity as equally
binding upon men and women, and to use my
utmost efforts to obey the command Keep
thyself pure to discountenance all coarse
language and impurity in dress, in language

would then find herself directly over the
saddle as soon as she puts her weight on
the pedal and takes the other foot from the
ground. 1t is not jump, but light spring
ing movement that is required, and the rider
will find that she sinks naturally into the
saddle. The second pedal should not be
caught too hurriedly, and should never be
looked at. 1t is a great mistake to accustom
yourself to look down at your pedals, and if
the pedal is not caught at the first revolution
it does not matter in the least.

quickly, while black tea Is improved by be-

1t is rather interesting to note that the
names of the different kinds of tea are of
Chinese origin, indicating a graduation of
quality from the young leaf bud up to the
hard and woody leaf. Scented tea is made

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION
Territory of Arizona, Executive Of

Territory of Arizona, Executive Of fee.
 To the People of Arizona, Greeting:
 As people we should be devoutly thankful for the blessings and benefac tions that have been vouchsafed to us during the current year. States, like persons, have their epochs of activity and depression; after hours of suffer- ing there usually come periods of com parative ease. We should not be un- mindful of the gratitude we owe AL mighty God for His divine favor, and should rejoice over the events of the past year which promise so much for the future of our territory and Ma tion. Arizona has been favored with plentiful rains and bountiful harvests which insure good returns to the hus- bandman and renewal of industrial activity We have been in the full en- | joyment of civil and religious liberty, and our advancement in the arts and sciences, and the development of intel lectual and moral power has made con- tinued progress.
 In accordance with the time-hOnored custom, and in compliance with the proclamation of the president of the United States, I, Benjamin J. Franklin, governor of the territory of Arizona, by virtue of the power conferred upon me by law, do hereby designate and set apart Thursday, the 18th day of the present month of November, to be kept and observed by the people of Ar izona as a day of thanksgiving and praise; and I do hereby recommend that on that day the people abstain so far as possible from their ordinary pursuits and occupations, and assem- ble in their usual places of worship to offer thanks to God in spirit and in truth.
 It is day especially appropriate for the works of charity and mercy. Re membering that all our doings without charity are nothing worth, we trust this very bond of peace and all virtues will be exemplifed in the observance of the day. That those who have been blessed with prosperity and plenty should remember with sympathy the unfortunate and needy, and by gen. erous contributions from their bounty to the poor, enable all to share in the general thanksgiving.
 In witness whereof I have hereunto
 set my hand and caused
 (seaD the great Seal of the Ter
 ritory to be affixed.

throat, colds, coughs, hoarseness, diff culty of breathing, and similar disor- ders, though so common as to excite no alarm, should be treated without delay. The continued irritation of the bron- chial tubes may result in a dangerous inflammation The best remedy to take is Ayers Cherry Pectoral. It IS agreeable to the taste, only small doses are needed, and it is always ready for use. Actors, singers, preachers, teach CTS, auctioneers, and all whose vocal organs are severely taxed, declare they prefer this preparation to any other. It affords speedy relief, soothes and heals the irritated mucous membrane, and gives tone, strength and fiexibility to the voice. No other medicine is so prompt to act and so sure to cure as Ayers Cherry Pectoral. To it were awarded medal and diploma at the Worlds Fair.
