Abstract
AMONG the views advanced by the author in this booklet are the following:—The earth is hollow—there is a hollow region large enough to hide the moon and to spare—the earth's axis is hollow—it has two openings, one at each pole—meteoric swarms and ether are attracted through the axis at the south polar entrance, there producing the aurora australis, and after acting as fuel for the fire in the interior is shot out as a waste product at the north polar exit, where it produces the aurora borealis. The character of the book is sufficiently indicated by these extracts, which need no comment.
