After alighting from the noiseless train
I looked around a few and
stood amazed at the wonderful changes
in the last half centary., The
streets were all paved with asphalt and
automobiles with rubber
tired gliding noisclessly
hither and thither, The pavements were
all plated with sheets of rubber, so that
in walking over them one imagines he is
walking on velvet or brussels carpet.
The Bush House has been remodeled
and now six stories high and
equipped with an elevator and all the
most modern improvements. It is said
to be the finest hotel outside of our larger
cities, We meandered noiselessly over
the rubber pavements to the diamond

count of our perforated habiliments. We
