A Cloud Maker.

Among the peculiar attractions at the Paris exposition will be a great machine for making clouds of all varieties at will. The machine will be in shape like two big globes. Spectators will be seated on the elevated platform at the rear. Any kind of clouds desired, from the light and feathery cirrus of the summer to the heavy cumulus of a thunderstorm, may be made. To add realism to the picture, thunder and lightning will be imitated when tlu machine is turning out the proper kind of product. In connection with the cloud machine a stereopticon will be used to throw pictures and advertisements ou the ready-made clouds.
