scribes the condition of tbs farmer in various

examines the cost Of labor, of living, the pncss
crops, taxes. mortgages, and rates of interest
gives elaborate tables showing the increase
Of wealth in railroads, manufactures, banking,
and othsr forms Of business, and he compares
this with the earnings Of the farmer, and also

style, with abundant citations of facts and dg-
ures, the author tells how the farmer reached
bis present unsatisfactory condition. Then fol-
lows al elaborate discussion Of The Way out"

eutation of tho aims and views of the Farmers
Alliance that has been published, including full
discussions of the currency, tie question: Of

II lunar conditions are favorable to

that they are not, and you could be trans
ported to the top Of Pico or some other
tall peak or rock on the surface of our
s'silvery sister world.n how do you sup
pose things would look from such want
age groundi You would probably first
turn your eyes In the direction of our
earth, the world ron had just quilted,
but to you it would be a stranger. In
place Of the somber globe you would
naturally expect to behold your eyes
would be greeted with most wonderful
sight. The earth would appear to you
to be sixty-four times larger than thesuu
appears to the residents OF this mundane
sphere; this because the earth has eight
times the diameter Of the moon, there
fore she must necessarily show the
inoonites sixty-four times as much sur.
face as the neon shows us. The sun,
on the other hand, would appear no
larger to you from your observatory on
the moon than it does from our globe.
The earth's atmosphere being blue it has
been decided that the earth must appear
as blue ball TO all outside onlookers.
What glorious sight it must be to our
lunarian neighbors tc look upon a bri git
blue, swift revolving ball sixty-four
times larger than the soul.--St. Louis
