The roof Of the public hall forms the
depot for all aerial vehicles, except.
those for personal use when are con
structed on the principle which the
original mammoth fauna had suggest
ed, and by studying which, man u1ti-.
mately solved the problem of raising
above the ground.
Upon this roof is situated all the.
receiving apparatus in connection with
electricity, and from it connection is
made with all the transaerial traffic
lines, as well as the meteorological de-
partment. &5N sE5 81
In regard to the houses, there is little
enough to describe, for in this matter
as in others, man finally came to re-
spect and initiate the simplicity which
nature had so unerringly taught him,
and when it reached the point, as it
finally did, that personal service from
one person to another, was pronounced
unlawful, and was abolished, as slav-
cry had been before it, no one was
| anxious to have more work to perform
than was necessary. These millennial
houses, then, built entirely Of Alumni
| UNI and glass, consist Of but two apart
ments, twenty feet square, one above
| the other, and a roof garden, all pre-.
cisely alike. Pneumatic tubes lead
into these rooms from the public hall.
one for supplies, such as food and
| clothing, another for water, which is
| continually running and empties itself
| through pipes into the earth outside,
and drawing through it into the stream
| in the center of the plaisance. There
are also apparatus for lighting, heat
ing or cooling by electricity, and by
| turning a valve on from the roof, the
| two rooms are cleaned of every parti-
! Gle of dust, which is forced by heavy
pressure of compressed air into the
| refuse chute, down which it is carried
to the fertilizing department. of the
farm. .. -+t,s, -.
The simplicity Of the furniture is
striking, divans being projected from
two sides of each Of the apartments,
upon which are scattered few fibre
cushions, which, when used for one
week, are sent away in the same man
ner as the clothing and towels -.

owing to certain changes in the atmOs-
pheric conditions. The scant crop of
hair is Of a curly type, doubtless from
the amount Of negro blood which had
been absorbed by the Circassians,-t
only remaining type, or, rather, the
residuum of humanity. AS to tooth

as the necessity of them having ceased
the gums have grown out to cover the
space they formerly occupied in the
mouth. AS far as mirrors are concern

answer that purpose, and the COM
pressed air with which the houses are
deodorized and cleaned daily, is per-
fumed more deEciously than any lady's
boudoir, whilst fountains in the plais-
ance and in the public hall distribute

fragrance.
Owing to geological changes of a
character calculated to leveling the
earths surface, and also owing to the
great engineering works carried on dur
ing the preceding centuries by man

ton was accomplished, wonderful
changes of climate were brought about.
The currents of the ocean were altered,
and were so scientifically directed as
to serve the purpose of equaliZing the
temperature in almost all parts of the
globe, currents from the frozen poles
being directed to the parched wilder
nesses Of Asia, Africa and Australia.
and currents from these places being
sent in other directions to carry the
unwelcome heat they accumulate to
colder zones. This was one Of the
greatest engineering feats of the an
clients, and conduced wonderfully to
the development of the race.
Their epoch also produced the great
concave excavations for sucking up the
storm winds which give us one of the
duction of our electrical energy, a part
Of which is also derived from the &C

When rain becomes necessary for the
crops or vegetation, it is produced by
creating atmospheric disturbances by
means Of concentrated gases dispersed
from pneumatic instruments, one OF
which is located on the roof of each
public hall. In this way, public con
venience is better served, and at the
, cost of very little effort on the par

changes had great influence upon the
physical organization, producing many
