Présentation de l'éditeur

The throngs move on and on through the vast and varied spectacle of wonders as though they were viewing the speechless mysteries of Aladdin or tramping along subterranean aisles in the catacombs of Rome. It is the American spirit of getting ones moneys worth. We spend 50 cents a day to see a $50,000,- ooo show and we might miss something if we laugh. There is no time or place for merriment or rest. We are lost in the mountains of miracles wherein the worlds side-shows of Midway and Pike become a serious study in our laborious enterprise of seeing it all. Such solemnity might reduce the nervous to tears if they were not too tired to weep. On that account the adventures of Uncle Jere miah and his neighbors are made public so that the laboring visitors may at least see the humor in themselves, if not in the show, and thereby look up and be glad.
