WHAT TO SEE IN CHICAGO.
The problem, what to see in Chicago, is one will vex every visitor. There is enough, to see to keep one busy six months. Of course the great Worlds Fair will claim the large.; part of one's time, but the great city of Chicago is none the less wonderful. Sixty years ago, the site of the city was the nnunt cl wolves: fifty years ago Chicago was a busy country town. Twenty odd years ago when a city of SeO.OOd population, it was iiCdriy swept from “xUumce by one of the most awful tires ever kindled; to-day it is the home of over a million and a half of people, and is one of the few really great cities of ijip world-. No One will miss seeing Chicago, and none should fail to visit that most wonderful scene, the Panorama of the great Chicago fire, as it shows truthfully and upon a scale of grandeur never before attempted, a magnificient birds eye view of the entire city, while the great fire was at its height. Before the observers lie nearly two square miles of smoking ruins, five thousand blazing buildings, and ten times as many refugees trying to save themselves from a horrible, death. No one visiting the World's Fair can afford to pass by this remarkable exhibition. Its location on Michigan Ave., near Madison St., brings it within easy walking distance of all the down-town hotels. If you can afford to lie annoyed by sick headache and constipation, don't use DeWitt’s Little Early Risers for these little pills will cure them. A. F. Long & Co.
