Queer features of life as it passes in this busy world of ours : he plans to travel beneath the frozen surface of the ocean to the North Pole

Illustrations depict submarine designer Simon Lake, dynamite blowing air holes through ice, a submarine diving down into the ocean, and a submarine boring up through the surface for air. These images correlate with an article describing Albert Riedel's proposal to reach the North Pole.
