A VISITOR FROM MARS.

was IN town on business, MOnuay.
A VISITOR FROM MARS.
A Visitor grom Mars met an
Inhabitant from Earth and asked
what was the matter with a great
crowd Of thin, pitiful, shivering
men and women that he noticed.
"They are hungry, said the
Inhabitant.
"Then why don't they eat ?"
asked the Visitor.
"They have no money!" re-
piled the Inhabitant.
"Would they eat money? ?"
asked the Visitor.
ono" answered the Inhabi-
tant, "they would eat bread and
meat"
care bread and meat very
scarce ?" queried the Visitor.
"No, no, there's plenty of it."
"Well, why don't they eat
it?"
And the Inhabitant hung his
head.
Then the visitor said: "Why
don't they take off those rags
and wear nice, clean, warm
clothes?"
To which the Inhabitant said,
"They have no money"
"But they could not wear
money. Are clothes very scarce
on Earth ?"
ooh no, there is an abund-
ance of clothes for everybody"
"Then ). h don't they put
them on ?"
And again the inhabitant hung
his head and did not reply.
The Visitor spoke again, "See-
ing they have no clothes, why
don't they go into houses and
warm themselves by the tires ~
"They have no money!" again
replied the Inhabitant.
EDO they make houses and
fires out of money ?" asked the
Visitor.
ooh no, we make them of
wood and stone and brick" an
swered the Inhabitant.
care these things very scarceF
queried the Visitor.
ooh no, there is no end to
them," replied the Inhabitant.
"Then why don't they build
houses for themselves" queried
the visitor from Mars.
"There are homes enough
built already for everybody" re-
sponded the Inhabitant.
"Then why don't they occupy
them ?" persisted the Visitor.
And again the Inhabitant hung
his head and said nothing.
"Where does all the food, and
all the clothes, and all the fuel,
and stones, and all the wood and
, brick come from ?" continued
the Visitor.
"From the land" answered
the Inhabitant.
"Then why don't they go on
the land and get all these things
for themselves ?"
Because they have no money"
"No money to do what ?"
"No money to get the land
with. "
"Can these men work ?"

And Visit the Barnum and Bailey Great
est Show on Earth-Specia1 Low Rate
Excursions From Everywhere.
The Barnum & Bailey greatest show
on earth will exhibit at Milwaukee,
Monday. September IL, and at Madi-
son, Tuesday, September II, and for
this notable occasion the various
railroads offer very low excursion rates.
This great show and national educator,
always the biggest and best, has this
year eclipsed all its previous records for
the multitude of its attractions.
The circus department comprises
every difficult equestrian act, aerial
feat, arenic display, athletic and aero
batlc trial, hlppodrome race, animal
trick and mad-cap caper of clown and
actor, with tumbling and leaping; in
fact, everything of a remarkable kind
in the way of meritorious feature or
attraction.
The horses alone are valued at $780,
600. Then there are strange animal
freaks. giant and pigmy creatures, odd
and curious beasts and birds, and a
giant gorilla and blue nosed mandrill.
The circus department contains only
champions in their various lines and
specialties, and duplicates of their acts
and performances are almost impossi-
BILE. The equestrians, both male and
female, are neutrality-suspicious..
All countries are represented in the
show "a fact which could meyer be stated
before with such absolute truth as this
year. The chronological congress is oft
self an enormous show, comprising, as
it does, all the strangest types of human
being on the face of the globe, while the
giant gorilla affords the missing proofs in
the links forming theDarwinian theory
Then there is grand water carnival
in which an intrepid diver makes a
plunge of 80 feet, head first, into lake
of water, 7 feet deep, in the center of
the arena. The moral part Of the show
is as great as it's instructive features,
while the general excellence prevailing
everywhere is of such magnificent kind
as to compel the admiration of young
and old. It is veritable worlds fair
brought to your very doors, and with
in its immense waterproof tents are
thousands ofinteresting and wonderful
features, all selected with the express
object of amusing, instructing, causing
mirth, innocent and harmless recrea-
ton, and withal leaving a good and
lasting impression on the minds of all
visitors.
