Show Tbe Canals On Mars. The astronomers tell us that the canals in Mars' are double in size this year. There must havd been some hot weathor there when we were freezing In Juno. Tlioy have been making photographs photo-graphs of them and they will be curious things to see when the negatives are developed. May be they are not canals. Who knows but what Mars has some Niles or Amazons or Misslssippis? May be it hag a "dark continent" and some Livingston may bo wandering there trying to find a river's source. May bo the demands of commerce have caused the inhabitant there to imitate ours, that they have out off the timber from tho headwaters head-waters oven as wo have from the Upper Mississippi, Missis-sippi, and that what the astronomers see is the spring flood which is to be followed by a groat drought. It is time the wireless "got busy." May be It Is time to try the monument Signal stations. Tho worlds are drawing nearer to each other. We should protty soon have Blgnals from Mars. |
