800 nnDEN DEATHS from heart

A UDDEN DEATHS from heart
- disease are frequent. Not a
49, day passes but the daily press
records the death Of some well known
citizen, cruelty shocking the commu'
nifty because it was unexpected. The
victims friends thinking of him as in
the enjoyment Of perfect health. Yet
death from heart disease Is never
without many warnings, given at ire
ouent intervals in many cases 1or
wears. The trouble is the victims 40
not heed the warnings. The first in
dication or symptom of heart disease,
although unmistakable, are so slight
and the change to the next stage SO
gradual that they are scarcely notice
able, and even when once fully real
lied, one does not wish to alarm ones
friends, and the suffering is borne In
silence until stricken down. Not sc

Thanksgiving Proclamation

The President has issued the following
Thanksgiving proclamation:
The approaching November brings to
NV mind the customs of our ancestors,
halowed by time and rooted in our
most sacred traditions, giving thanks to
Almighty God for al, the blessings
he has vouchsafed to US during the past
year.
Few years in our history have afforded
such cause for Thanksgiving. We have
been blessed by abundant harvests, our
trade and commerce have been wonder
fully increased, our public credits have
been improved and strengthened. al
sections of our common country have
been brought together and knitted into
closer bonds OF national purpose and
unity. .i.s
The skies have been for . time dark
ened by the cloud Of war, hut as we
were compelled to take up the sword in
the Gauss OF humanity,,we are permitted
TO rejoice that the conflict has been Of
brief duration, and the losses we have
had to mourn, though grevious and i'm
portant, have been so few, considering
the great results accomplished, rs to in
spire us with gratitude and praise to The
Lord OF Hosts. We may laui and mag
j nifty His holy nsms that the cessation of
hostilities came so soon as to spare both
sides the countless SORROWS and distress
that attend protracted war.
do, therefore. invite al. my fellow
citiIe ne, those NJ home ne well as those
who may be at sea or sojourning In
foreign lands, TO set apart and observe
Thursday, the oath day of November, as
a day of rational thanksgiving, to come
together in their several places Of wor-
ship Tor service OF praise and thanks
to Almighty God for all the blessings of
the year; for the mildness ofthe seasons
and the fruitfulness OF the soil (; for the
continued prosperity OF the people; for
the devotion and yalor OF our country
men; for the glory OF our victory and
the hope OF a righteous peace; and to
pray that the divine guidance, which
has brought heretofore safety and honor,
may be graciously csnsinued in tho
years to come.
