THANKSGIVING AS AN ART.

An Accomplishment In Which our
Mothers Excelled the Girls of Today.
In an article entitled IAN Old-Time
Accomplishment" in the Woman's
Home Companion, Edward L. Pell
says: 1.-THE girl who has cultivated the
spirit of thankfulness does not gush
over at the gift of daisy, and snap
an Indifferent Thanks! at the man
who has lost day from the office to
crafty her little Whim. OF course,
those mothers of ours had their whlms,
and exercised the priceless privileges
of thoughtlessness and swapping now
and then, as girls, and other than girls
have always donea but think 1t can
not be denied that the girl of a gener-
alton ago had a conscience on the
subject of debts of gratitude such as
few have had since her day.
IT have said that I am afraid that
with many of us today it is lost art.
I am sure that it is not given that
prominence which it once had, and that
it is not cultivated with the enthusiasm
with which it once was. Girls are
taught what etiquette says about 1t, Dut
etiquette deals only from the lips out
ward, and the result is that even our
language tells the story of the deca-
dence of thanksgiving. A traveller
from Mars might hear our Thanks!
a million times and never suspect thai
it was meant as an acknowledgment
of a favor. I am. sure that up to, say
a dozen years ago, in those parts o.
our country where gallantry has helt
out longest, one could not give up
seat in a car without being sure OF
full return in an acknowledgment tina
meant to acknowledge something; ant

Bessie. THAT is fun, or maybe she has
new dresses for our dolls" ...'
y Il don't care for taffy, or dolls or
anything" said Sophy. "Im home
sick. Well, of course I am at home,
but it ism home without mamma and
papa"
They went down stairs with long
faces, and neither of the children had
much appetite for their nice milk-toast
and baked apples.
well, now, how solemn you look!"
said Aunt Rosy. >"Thanksgiving Day,
when you ought to be thinking of all
your blessings; and you don't even ask
y me what the surprise is. We're going
a- to grandma's to spend the day; there,
now
But papa and mamma won't be
there said Bessie.
And We can't be happy even there"
said Sophy, sobbing. s~r~S
Really, it was dreadful for Aunt Rosy
to laugh at them just then, but she
did.
Il don't believe she loves us one bit, y
said Sophy, in a whisper.
II don't, either; she's dreadful" said
Bessie.
And all through the journey tc
grandpa's house not a smile did they
give. And when the train reached
grandpa's place, and Uncle JEFF came
in the wagon to meet them, and said

NASTY things" whispered Bessie.
IT think so, too,' whispered Sophy.
But here they were at last at grand
pas house, and out came grandpa and
grandma and Aunt Jennie and Aunt
Eliza and Uncle William, Aunt Eliza's
husband, and their boy.
"Well, now, darlings," cried grandma,
holding out her arms, 'how do you

"No, indeed" said Bessie, I'VE don't
mean to. It's so dreadful for papa and
mamma to be away Thanksgiving
Day."
$50 it is, darling" said grandma.
But she did not look bit solemn
and grandpa winked at Uncle William

a Reform In Siberia.

Up to the present year the great pro-
vince Of Siberia, covering an area con-
siderably larger than all Europe. has
been without organized courts, the
whole country having been subject to
the arbitrary administration Of officials
appointed by the tsar. On the first OF
August modern and uniform system
+ Of public Justice was instituted, and
law courts were opened in each Of the
provincial capitals, withsa court OF
appeals at Irkutsk. There Is still no
trial by jury, but the new system rep
resents Z great advance upon the old.

Boy! Eyes, and when it gets here
you'll feel very much cut up over it,
GOOD Advice Made : .Pre.,d.nt.

The following advice was impaired
to John Quincy Adams, by his mother,
in 177S, in letter to him while he
was In Europe: Great learning and
superior abilities, should you ever
possess them, will be sof little value
and small estimation, unless virtue,
honor, integrity and truth are cher
ished by you. Adhere to the rules and
principles early instilled into your
mind. and remember that you are re-
sponsible to your God. Dear as you
are to me, / would much rather prefer
that you would find grave II the
ocean which you have crossed, than to
see you an immoral, graceless child =

A Thanksgiving Proclamation.

Know all men by these presents that
We turkeys do protest 'r=
Against an annual outrage which
Brings sorrow to the nest. @
We think it most becoming for
A nation to give thanks,
But we object in firm tones when
It cuts into our ranks.
Think of the widowed ones, and think
OF orphans in the flock,
Who must this year with sadness view
The cruel chopping block.
So now, good people, we request.
Our pleadings may be heard.
And il you must give thanks and
feast
Please kill some other bird.
George v. Hobart.

their hearts would break to be laughed
at like that.
None of them love u.s. they whis-

Oh, what dreadful thing to feel and

all of a sudden, some one back in the

Then the unseen person cried out:
Don't tease them any more! and some
one came running and took them both
in her arms. Some one, indeed! It was
their own mamma, and behind her
came their papa; and it was so Won
derful they could not believe it. r.+'>.-
MY darlings, no one was laughing
at you," said mamma. Every one
knew we were here but you. asked
them not to tell you in order to give
you a happy SURPRISE; and when you

both answered together:

help it. Though tits Thanksgiving Day
we can't be thankful, for we don't know

ELLEN OSBORN'S
FASHION LETTER.
Gowns for Bride and Bridesmaids al
Fashionable Autumn Weddings
Dress at the Horse Show.

cess gowns of white glace silk, with
fichus of ecru lace gathered about the
shoulders and caught at the waist with
gold-colored moire sashes. whose broad
ends reached the ground. They had
white velvet hats, with feathers.
At three or four of the prettiest we'd
dings of the autumn the bridesmaids,
as well as the bride, have worn wells.
The four bridesmaids of young girl
who was married recently at country
house in Hampstead We're gowned in
ivory-white bengaline, with chiffon
fichus Of a delicate primrose yellow.
They wore tulle wells with aigrettes OF
white ospreys and carried bouquets OF
pale yellow chrysanthemums.
A cavalier cape is a fashionable ad-
dition to a bridesmaids toilet when q
hat is to be worn. A good example was
furnished at church wedding in New
York last week, at which the brides
sister. who was her only attendant,
was dressed in white corded silk, with
decorations of guipure and pale blue
crepe de Chine. A cape of sapphire
blue velvet. lined with white satin,
was slung from her shoulders. Her hat
was pale blue, with white trimmings.
White corduroy has been used with
good effect for bridal costumes recent
ly. White moire antique is more or
less in favor. In one or two instances
little color has been added to the
bridal white by girls who find all white
unbecoming. I recall, for example, a
dress worn two or three weeks ago OF
The herald., 1897-11-28

New York, Nov. 1S.-It seems to be
popular opinion that if one cannot be
married among the roses of June, the
chrysanthemums of November make
the best substitute, with their dark
green backgrounds of potted palms. A
