THANKSGIVING
PROCLAMATION
Thursday, the goth of Novem-
Der, Set Apart According
to the Usual Custom.
YEAR OF PEACE AND PLENTY
ALMIGHTY OFFICIALLY GIVEN
THE CREDIT.
YEAR OF PEACE AND PLENTY

Washington, Oct. 23.-The president to-
day issued proclamation naming
Thoursday. Nov. 90 as a day OF thanks
giving. The text Of the proclamation is
as follows:
A Proclamation.
The time oE>the year has come when,
IN accordance with the custom of our
fathers. it becomes my duty to set aside
a special day of thanksgiving and praise
10 the Almighty because of blessings we
have received, and Of prayer that these
blessings may be continued. Yet another
year of widespread well-being has passed
Never before in our history or in the
history of any other nation has peo-
pie enjoyed more Astounding material
prosperity than is ours; a prosperity so
great that il should arouse in us no
spirit of reckless pride. and, least of all,
spirit of needless disregard of our re-
SponSiDiitieS: but rather q sober sense
Of our many blessings, and a resolute
purpose under providence not to forfeit
them by any action of our own.
Material wel-being, indispensable
though il is. can never be anything but
the foundation of true national greatness
and happiness. If we build nothing upon
this foundation, then our national life
will be as meaningless and empty as a
house where only the foundation has been
laid. Upon our material Well-being must
be built a Superstructure of individual
and national life lived in accordance with
the laws of the highest morality. or else
turn out a curse instead of a blessing.
We should be both reYerently thankful
for what we have received and earnestly
bent upon turning it into a means of
grace and not of destruction.
Accordingly, / hereby set apart Thurs
day, the twenty-ninth day of November
next as the day of Thanksgiving and
supplcation. upon which the people shall
meet in their homes or churches. de-
vOutIy acknowledge all that has been Civ
en- them, and to pray that they may in
addition receive the power to use these
gifts Alright.
'1n witness whereof / have hereunto
SCI nv hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed
Done at the City of Washington this
twenty-second day of October i'm the
year of our Lord one thousand nine hun
dred and six. and of the independence of
the United States the one hundred and
thirty-first.

A TRAINED NURSE
After Years of Experience, Advises Women i'm
Regard to Their Health.

Mrs. Martha Pohlman
Of 50 Chester Avenue,
Newark, n. J., who is a
graduate Nurse from the
Blockley Training School,
at Philadelphia, and for
six years Chief Clinic
Nurse at the Philadelphia
Hospital, writes the letter
printed below. She has
the advantage of personal
experience, besides her
professional education,
and what she has to say
may be absolutely relied
upon.
Many other women are
afflicted as she was. They
can regain health in the
same way. IL is prudent
to heed such advice from
such a source.
Mrs. Pohlman writes:
I" l am firmly persuaded,
after eight years Of experience
with Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, that it
is the safest and best medicine
for any suffering woman to
USE"

Prices Fixed Arbitrarily.

All the principal elevator men in the
city, Mr.. Beall said, were members of
the combine, which fixed its prices
every morning. Grain generally was
bought at the fixed price, which was
fixed arbitrarily. It was determined
on the basis of the Chicago option and
margin sufficient to ensure profit to
members of the combine was agreed 10.
Mr.. Beall explained that the national
board of trade had headquarters i'm
Kansas City. 1t had twenty-five active
members here and about 400 i'm other
cities. 1t had no exchange outside of
Kansas City. In reply to a direct cues
ton, Mr.. Beall declared that the mem
berS of the national board of trade
were blacklisted by the Chicago. Min
neapOliS and Kansas City boards of
trade, and that the Kansas City board
of trade interfered with all shipments of
grain belonging to the national that
passed through Kansas City The
weight department of the Kansas City
board, he said. insisted upon wefhing
all the nationals grain. claiming the
right to weigh all grain coming into
Kansas City.

Louis. proved an important witness.
Mr.. Shields says he was in Chicago last
fall when he was called on to advise
about a special export rate on grain.
He helped to make rate effective sew
eraI days later and bought corn and
left. He shipped three and one-half
million bushels of corn under the spe-
cial rate. He had bought more than
a million bushels before other dealers
learned that the reduced rate would be
made.
Again, this summer, he happened 10
be waiting around the office of the vice
president of the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul railroad when the railroads
agreed upon cut of az cents a hun
dred on wheat, equivalent to a cut of
IL. cents q bushel. He went out end
sold 100000 bushels for delivery under
the rate.

. London. Oct. 23.-Unusual excitement in
connection with the reopening of parlia-
meht today was caused by the presence
or about 1C0 woman suffragists. MANY of
whom, despite the protests of the police
managed to find their way into the outer
lobby of the house of commons with the
intention Of buttonholing the members in
support of their movement A number of
the suffragists mounted vacant chairs in
the lobby and began to harangue the
lew members of parliament present in
that part of the house The police, after
being reinforced. made a strategic adj
vance against the invaders, taking the
women singly, and gradually elected
them, one by one, from the house. The
most militant of the women struggled
SO desperately that two officers were re-
quired to move them.
The hysterical shouting and screaming
OF the crowds of women and the I'M
wonted scene created temporary excite
ment such as seldom has been witnessed

Yes. We experienced Interruptions
