made in Difference to the existing state of
feeling regarding these animals and will
be strictly adhered to. The safety of the
passengers will in all ways be jealousy
looked to. A substantial iron railing
will be put all around the comet, and no
one will be allowed to 60 to the edge and
look over unless accompanied by either
my partner or myself.
THE POSTAL SERVICE
will be of the completest character OF
course, the telegraph, and the telegraph
only, will be employed, consequently
friends occupying state rooms $1,000, 900,
and even 30,000,000 miles apart will be
able to send message and receive a
reply inside of eleven days. Night mes
sages will be half-rate. The whole of
this vast postal system will be under the
personal Superintendent of Mr.. Hale, OF
Maine.
Meals served at all hours. Meals served
in state rooms charged extra.
Hostility is not apprehended from any
great planet, but we have thought it best
to err on the safe side, and, therefore,

| repeat that we shall not wantonly Of
fend any star; but, at the same time, we
shall promptly resent any injury that
may be done us, or any insolence offered
us, by parties or governments residing in
any star in the armament. Although
adverse to the shedding of blood,we shall
still hold this course rigidly and fear
lessly, not only toward single stars but
toward consultations. We shall hope to
leave a good impression of America be-
hind us in every nation we visit, from
Venus to Uranus. And, at all events, if
we can not inspire love, we shall, at
least, compel respect for our country
wherever we 60. We shall take with us,

suitable for wear in the sun should be

Baggage checked through to any point
on the route. Parties desiring to make
only part of the proposed tour, and
thus save expense, may stop over at any
star they choose and wait for the return
voyage.
After visiting all the most celebrated
stars and consultations in our system,
and personally inspecting the remotest
sparks that even the most powerful tele,
scopes can now detect in the armament
we shall proceed with good heart upon
A sTUPENDoUs VOYAGE
of discovery among the countless whirl'
ing worlds that make turmoil in the
mighty wastes of space that stretch their
solemn solitudes, their unimaginable
vastness billions upon billions of miles
away beyond the furthest verge of tele-
scopic vision, till by comparison the little
sparkling vault we used to gaze at on
earth shall seem like remembered phos
phorescent flash of spangles which some
tropical voyager's PROV stirred into life
for single instant, and which ten thou
