All accounts agree that the St. Louis fair is the most wouderful show this nation has ever seen, and tliat means a groat deal, for no other nation has ever succeeded in giving a fair com parable with that held at Chicago eleven years ago. Great as the Chica go fair was, the St. Louis world's fair surpasses it in magnitude as well as in beauty and varied interest It is a larger investment and a more edifying birdseye ot modern progress "as slia is." But along with this unanimity of testimony as to the magnificent com prehensiveness of the show, there is a no less marked unanimity of opinion that the fair will not pav.owing to the enormous outlay involved,and that its financial failure will be an insuper able obstacle to any more world's fair projeots for at least a generation. Special exhibitions we may have, but that another exhibition on anything like the scale of the St. Louis one will bo attempted i-i most improbable. This is a reason why everyone who has the opportunity should avail himself of it and visit St. Louis between now and December. Open Air Meeting.
