GOING TO WORK IN 2110.

Thomas A. Edison has decided upon the two aaost important problems of the future and declares, with their solution, the workingman 200 years from now will live as well as a man at present with $200,000 annual income. The two great problems, says Edison, in the Independent, are the elimination of friction and the saving of fuel. These will mean the greatest possible development of power and consequent reduction of the cost of all commodities and comparative affluence for the laborer. He deprecates the value of the mono rail, condemns chemical foods, suggests improvements in aeroplanes and bitterly assails the use of whisky.

MR. EDISON DECLARES THE ORDINARY LABORER WILL THEN LIVE Ab WELL AS A MAN WITH A $200,000 INCOME CAN NOW.
