Dear Mirror: :--On February 9TH
exactly. noon, on a bright beau
tifnl day. we moved away from the
White Star pier and aut into the
North River, leaving at least a
THOUSAND people behind us, waving
perfect snow storm OF white
handkeNhiefs On adieu.
.'Bon Voyage, "Wish l were
ging with YOU, "Good Bye"
were some OF the many shouts
that were waited after us as we
sailed away down the North River
into New York bay, past the statue
of liberty and out into the open
seq. The large salon was liter
ally filled with parting gifts, boxes
Of fowers books, confectionery,
baskets of fruit and packages of
all kinds containing delightful
mysteries inside. A perfect shower
of steamer letters and kilograms
also greeted us.
For two days we had a calm
sea and prosperous voyage,
Friday night we ran into gale
and the Arabic was tossed about
like a festher. For the next two
days, three quarters of the passen-
gers remained in their berths and
ate grua, but the Marion people
behaved well and never lost meal,
thanks to DR.. Brush's remedy.
But the gale passed and every
hour since has been delight. The
days are not half long enough,
for the succession of lectures, mu-
sicales. bridge and $500" parties
deck games ETC., fill every avail
able moment.
We celebrated Lincoln's s birth
day and American Oratory was
anchored and flowed in stream.
The Star Spangled Banner and
the Un.cn Jack were draped to-
gather in the salon. Everybody
sang "My Country 'Tis of Thee
and "God Save the King" and
thus everything was lovely.
We have delightful company
on board, not few of whom are
more or less distinguished. Gov.
Van Zant of Minnesota, Governor
Osborne Of Wyoming Judge Dill
Ion Of New York, Mrs. Marshall
Field. Jr., of Chicago are wit
us--not to mention fortythree
clergymen, thirteen priests and
ninsty-nine lawyers. With such
an array OF brains. You may be
sure that pin-heahed intelligence
is in the minority. 1t is the peo-
pie who are anxious to learn the
travellers.
! am glad to say that the Marion
contingent are delighted with ev-
erWhing and say that the half was
not told them, So I hand Bou-
qust TO myself that they do not
charge me with exaggerat;on when
] described the delights of an Ori-
entsl Cruise.
Tomorrow we arrive at Funchal,
Madeira, A ball to be given at the
Casino In our honor and it is mys-
teriously limited that other compli-
ments await US.
On board S. S. Arabic
/ am writing in the library which
is supposed to contain perhaps 200
people but at present writing, holds
about million! Everybody is talk
ing and the consequence is that
this IL the most incoherent unsatis-
factory episle TO send to the Mirror
readers but it must be this or no
thing.
just imagine us having all kinds
of a good time and follow us with
your good wishes and prayers for a
safe return and so for the present

bounced on seIf:Respect.

Certain outward social forms may
be acquired by study of etiquette,
but true pollteness does not consist
IN the intentional, or even conscious,
observance OF any code of manners.
A truly polite man, consequently,
does not think out or learn special
line Of conduct. He simply does that
which his instincts prompt him to do,
never worrying himself or others to
decide what ought, or ought not to be
done In a given set of circumstances.
Real politeness is much more than
q question Of external conduct. It Ia
an expression of character on the part
OF one who combines sympathy for
others with proper degree of self.
respect. Indeed no one can properly
respect his fellows who does not p-op.
erly respect himself.

misrepresented by several OF the
trade papers which have always
been unfriendly toward these gentle
men. They have even gone so far
as to make the statement that
Chickering Bros. had been closed up
and put out Of business and that
the dealer or even the innocent pur-
chaser, was liable to contempt and
various other terrible disasters IL
he purchased Chickering Bros.
pianos. These statements have
been made by certain of the trade
press and have been voiced by some
dealers representing other lines Of
pianos, for the purpose of currying
favor with Chickering & Sons, who
are heavy advertisers, and ruining
the business of Chickering Bros, II
possible; but in spite of these hand
leaps the business of the latter
has grown and prospered until now
Mr.. G. G. Chickering finds 1t I'm
possible to attend to the various de-
: tails Of the business successfully
without able assistance. The combi-
nation which Is to be made is sure
to be a strong one, as both broth
|, ers are practical, well-equipped nj
ano men. and are recognized as such
throughout the trade.
The management OF the business
has alawys been very conservative,
and 1t is doubtful II any piano
house in the country, whether 1t be
large or small, has larger propor-
tiOn of assets as against its liabil-
tiles. The. financial standing OF
Chickering Bros. is unquestioned.
and their guarantee is as strong a
safeguard to the purchaser as such
an assurance can be made.
The Chickering Bros piano today
Is strictly artistic production in
every respect. and to any desiring
thoroughly reliable and artistic
piano either for wholesale or retail
purposes, we can most heartily rec
ommend their make.

that children are overburdened with

to associate with persons older than

More than half OF mankind over 90

1t corrects irregularities and has cured
many old men OF this disease. Mr., Rod.

Cook held that the acts vi the grand

CORN A MADE
GOOD ADVANCEMENT

Des Moines, Ia, Sept. 5.-The wealth
er crop bulletin for the week ending
September 9, is as follows:
The past week was very warm and
showery. The average daily teinper-
allure was 3 to S degrees above the nor
NAL. Very heavy showers occurred on
Wednesday night and Thursday norm
ing in the central district, and copious
rainfall was reported in all Except the
southwest and south central districts.
The wet weather caused some delay in
threshing, but the rain was generally
beneficial to all growing crops. and
the soil is now in good condition for
blowing. Corn has made very good adj
vancement. Reports indicate that with
normal conditions the most advanced
fields will be practically safe about the
25th Of September. To ripen the major
portion of the crop there is need of
warm days and frostless nights till
October 1st, and a warm week beyond
that date will be very helpful.

unless there is an early frost.
Rrule County

Pukwana-Corn has suffered consid-
erably by the p~rotracted drought, but
during the past few days general rains
have visited this portion of the state,
which viii help late corn wonderfully.
The majority of farmers say that two
or three weeks of unchilled September.
weather is needed to put most corn in
this section out of danger.
Dawson County.
Mitcllell-The majority of the corn
crop will be out of the way of frost
September 10 or 10. The warm. dry
weather OF the past thirty days has
progressed the corn rapidly. There are,
many fields of the earlier planting now
practically out of danger as the early
variety is now dented. While the yield
per acre is much below the 1906 crop, it
is safe to say it Will be from 20 to 80
bushels per acre and an occasional
field will exceed 80 bushels.
Beadle County.
Huron-Corn in the central part OF
the state is in a bad way. Frost a
week ago, which was thought at the
Wou be no damage, has damaged corn
fully so per cent, according to grain
dealers, and the other so per cent. will

over three weeks and will not be more
than Il half crop.

Yankton-With favorable Weather
from now on. the bulk of the corn crop
will be safe by September 90. A great
deal will never mature. Grain men es-
innate only a half a crop.

set an example by ordering it's coal
supply early, and if a coal famine is
to be prevented the example must be
needed. Every effort Will be made to
get the dealers and the railroads to

Last year the railroads were taken
unaWares in regard to the equipment
necessary to move crops This year
the early expectation was the crops
movement will be lighter, but this has
proven a mistake. There is danger
therefore. of another shortage of cars
and the railroads are being asked tc
act quickly, as it is important that
coal be ordered before the crop move

The railroads have been building
new tracks. establishing additional d.
