The Splendor of the Fair at Night.

The real secret of the popularity of the fair is the splendor of the spectacular effects. Other scenic shows about which much is written or said are more or less disappointing. The Court of Honor, either by daylight or by night, inevitably surpasses expectation. No such grouping of architectural marvels ever has been seen anywhere in the world. The picture fills the eye and satisfies the imagination. No spectator, however critical he may be, ever retires from the scene with any feeling of discontent. He is conscious of having seen one of the wonders of the modern world which can never be reproduced. When he returns to hia home he has pnly one word for every friend and acquaintance: “You must go to the world’s fair even if the times are ever so bad. You cannot afford to miss seeing the Court of Honor!”-—N.Y. Tribune.
