PERSIA Needed
SIBERIA CALL
FOR HELP

That an IS. o. S. signal flashed
across the China sea some weeks ago
and received through the instruments
in the wireless room on the PRciffc
MAN liner Persia, briefly told a story
OF disaster to the steamship Siberia
Of the same line, was admitted this
morning by officers in the intermedi-
ate vessel following its arrival from
Manila by way Of Hongkong and Ja-
pan ports
Peculiar static conditions obtaining
at the time are now declared to have
been the cause Of the confusion OF
faint dots ana dashes recorded not
only BY experts stationed on the Per-
STA, but by officials connected with
other vessels then steaming within
several hundred miles of the spot
where the Siberia was alleged as in
distress and sinking TO a final rest
ing place In many fathoms of water
It was with mingled feelings Of as
constituent and delight that Captain
J.. Hill and hts officers in the Persia
received a message while at Hongkong
that the Siberia had arrived in safety
at Manila The outward voyage Of
the vessel is reported to have been
entirely uneventful. That the report
Of the disaster was generally credited
Is borne out by the statement that
Lloyds', the worldwide shipping au-
thcrfty at London, is reported to have
received satisfactory confirmation Of
an erroneous announcement from its
Japanese and China coast representa-
tiFes.
The Persia is making brief stay at
the port. the vessel to be dispatched
for San Francisco at o'clock this
evening. Six cabin and 81 Asiatic
.steerage passengers are for Honolulu,
among the latter being six Filipinos.

TRIALS OF ELDEST DAUGHTER
Her Position in the Family Some
times Results In Making Her More
or Less Of Drudge.

I'm glad I'm not the Oldest" re-
marked a pretty girl to her chum-
Why. Susan has to do almost every
thing at home: father thinks she ought
to take the burden Of housekeeping
OF mothers hands, and my brother
wants her to wait On him as If she
were a serVant-he knows better than
to ask me to do anything for him
says I'm spoiled-and you just bet I'm
glad I'm the youngest grill"
Too often the Oldest daughter Is
made drudge, and there is not the
proper amount Of respect and regard
for the girl whose labors take the
place Of maid. She is expected to
run errands, help with the care and
amusement Of the children, teach
them lessons. What wonder that
such a girl viii take the first oppor-
tunity for work as a means to escape
from these unpaid labors. or accept
an offer Of marriage In order to live
apart from a family who do not even
try to make her home life comfort
able and pleasant.
But I am glad to say that not al
ways is the position OF elder daugh-
ter" such an unappreciated one; in
some households she is beloved and
respected, at the same time expected
to fulfill whatever duties may fall to
her lot. Her sisters and brothers are
taught that they must return any serV-
ice she may perform for Them with
due appreciation. If nothing more, and
they soon learn that her place is an
honored one, instead of being unen-
viable.-Pittsburgh Dispatch.
