A woman's fondest hope is to stay
young. She often resorts to paints,
powders and cosmetics to hide her
years. Some women pay large sums to
so-called "Beauty Doctors" in the be-
lief that money will buy youth. Others
wear girlish dresses, thinking they can
fool the world about their age. But
no one is deceived. The more you try
to hide your age, the more it shows.
There is but one thing that holds old
age back, and that is health. Sickness
and weakness bring old age early in
life. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton is a building-up medicine for
women. It makes them healthy and
strong when they suffer from women 3

PROCLAMATION
INVOLVES WORK

1t has been customary in recent
years for the Department Of State to
draft each Thanksgiving proclama.
ton.
After the draft has been o. KID by
the President 1t is handed to the State
departments expert penman, who in
his copper-plate chirography writes 1t
upon large sheet of excellent parch-
ment, which is sent to the President
for his signature, and then returned
to the State department to be signed
by the secretary of state. Next 1t
must be impressed with the great seal
of the United States, whose custodian
will refuse to place 1t even upon so
important q document unless author
lied to do so by a formal warrant
signed by the President, for the use
of the great seal or the possession of
an impression thereof without the
Chief Executives written authority is
grave offense, punishable by law.
Indeed, the great seal-which was
made by a jeweler at a cost of $4,000
and which is kept locked In a great
rosewood case-is the most sacred in
strument used by the government.
Having had this hallowed cipher of
the republic pressed into 1t, the new
Thanksgiving proclamation is filed
away In the State department
archives. later to be bound In its
chronological order, with other accu-
mulated proclamations.
Uncle Sam takes all of these tech
nical pains merely to retain the hand
somely written proclamation as his
own souvenir. But before the instru-
ment has been filed away a typewrit-
ten copy is sent to the State depart
ment's official printer, who has a shop
of his own In the basement of our for
eign office. His printed copies are
given to the newspapers or to anyone
who wishes.
Each of the state governors must
also be sent an exact copy, but the de-
partments strict code of etiquette de-
mands that these copies must not be
printed. They are typewriter and
signed by the Presidents and secre-
tary of states own hands. Each gov
ernor then seconds this move of the
President in appointing the annual
feast day Of thanks and prayer and,
in their turn, the mayors of cities now
generally second the move of their
governors. BY such indirect means
does the prompting Of the nations
thanks theoretically reach the people,
who actually receive it directly from
the President himself through that
eliminator of red-tape delays-the
daily newspaper. In some localities
the bishops receive the proclamation |
from the governors and hand It down
In circular form to the lesser clergy.
who read 1t from their pulplts upon |
the Sabbath following It's issuance. In
parts of New England 1t is still the
custom to read the proclamation from
the pulpit on two successive SUNDAYS.
These infinite pains are taken. de-
spite the fact that there is nothing in
the federal statute authorizing Pres
ident to set apart such holy day.
But the proclamatlons make the holi-
day legal.

tive rate committee.
To provide this sum, freight rates
i'm the territory west Of the Mississippi
must be increased "a per cent. he said.
With the presentation Of this appli-
cation, the commission had before it
the request of all the trunk line rail-
roads Of the country for increased
rates. Dates for hearings will be set
later if any protests against the rates
are filed.
Mr.. FELTON, told the commission that
railroad facilities were not common
surate with present plans.
There is congestion in many
points," he said. Lumber and grain
movements from the northwest are
choked back because Of insufficiency
of available equipment, and the same
is true of fruit shipments from the
west, grain from the middle west. coal
and coke, ore, vegetables, automobiles,

disc from other sections"
Declaring that the net income of the
western carriers fell from $500, 191 900
in 1916 to S261. 456, 900 in 1919, Mr..
FELTON, told the commission that a re
casting of the 1919 account to the pres
ent cost of labor, coal and materials,
reduced the current net basis to $126,-
OPT, 600. To raise this income to six

there is no intention to raise passen-

MILLION DOLLARS

Sum Required to Raise In
come to Six Per Cent

Washington, May S.-Railroad ex-
ecutives Thursday asked congress for
an additional $1,000 1000 with which
TO buy rolling stock during the coming
year.
Appearing before the senate inter-
state commerce committee. representa-
tives of the carriers declared that a
serious and general car shortage ex-
listed throughout the middle west and
that they were unable to borrow
money on their own credit for freight
cars needed to remedy the situation.
Samuel Rea, president of the Penn
sylvania system. speaking for the
roads, said that the government, if it
furnished the money, could take equip
ment trust certificates for security,
and hold them until they could be sold
advantageously to general investors.
Some idea of what the roads needed
in the way of equipment was given the
committee by Il. N. Brown, chairman
of the st. Louis & San Francisco rail
road, who declared the present short
age amounted TO 226,OOO freight cars,
3,190 locomotives and 5000 passenger
cars. He believed they could get along
for a time with 100000 freight cars
and 1000 locomotives, the total cost
of which was estimated at $616, DOC, 900.
Mr.. Brown testified that the carriers
had paid as high as 7% per cent in
terest OF equipment funds in the open
market, and finally had been told that
$150,000,000 was all that could be Dor
rowed for that purpose.
