Twenty Minute Trips at the Worlds Fair by Horse, Rail, Through the Air or Over or Under
 WafAr


 the Air or Over or Under
 Water.
 A make-believe in sure enough convey ances through real scenes to strange place of which the story books tell. This Is the sort of fairy travel to be enjoyed on The Pike.
 It all comes about minus the dust, the annoyances of customs officers on unfamiliar frontiers and the wearisom~- ness of tedious hours plus the motion. the excitement of beholding something new at a bagetelle expense.
 Where does your fancy roam-into the Alps, Siberia. the Lakes of Killarney, to Paris. on Venetian lagoons or even to the North Pole not to mention the creation of the world? The Pike will lead you to the goal of imagination.
 Board an airship and whirl away into space, take a submarine boat and steam down into cool depths to the coral reefs, be the first mortal whose eyes have seen the magnetic pole imprisoned in it's frozen fortificatiohs.
 Irish scenery from jaunting ear offers It's rare novelty in the great Irish Village on The Pike. An ingenious arrangement of moving sights carries the typical con veyance Of the Emerald Isle through the lovellest parts of the romantic land of  song and ancient story.
 The guide points out the spots where patriotism has burned in the breasts of gallant patriots. remains of castles which legend calls the one time homes ot is- land kings and where the bards sung of heroic deeds. The glory af placid waters and the gleam of historic rivers shines along old battelhelds
 Is 1t the Alps? A curious tram car doubling and redoubling upon It's gleam- ing way revals Icy peaks, glaciers im- memorial. wales of verdant beauty lying low between the realms of eternal snows. not mere panaroma of fiat canvaS but the farthest advances in the art of the plastic which gives us rocks, growing grass and trees and the roar of mountain torrents
 These scenes are most realistically spread before the wondering vision in the massive Tyrolean Alps a mighty show Of the mountains which has never heAn approached before in its mammoth proportions and in it's truth to Nature. Although the traveller only travels few thousands of feet. he seems to be travel

The bakers wagons in Brazilian towns arer commonly drawn by goats. Some times pair of these animals are hitch ed to the cart and sometimes there are four. They are patient workers, and no- body ever has any occasion to complain that through any fault of theirs the bread does not arrive on time in the morning. The wagon is a rather odd af- fair, resembling a box on two wheels, with a pent roof.
