National Magazin History furnishes abundant evidence that science has seemingly perforuied miracles for the benefit of the living, yet it has scarcely lifted a hand un til the last few years in behalf of the dead The methods of burial in every land have undergone practically no change in twenty centuries; a bru tal custom has decreed that the... xe. mains of departed friends must rest until the final awakening in a bleak and oflén neglected joemetery, with the cold, wet ground for a bed. It true that wealth ean secure beautiful caskets and ornamental monuments of designs, but in the final analysis the last resting place ol powp and poverty is essentially the same--a mud-draped grave. I'here doubt, however, that the American people are awak ening to the necessity of a radical change in the custom of burial, and that the modern mausoleum, perfect ed and build to stand the ravages of ages, has everything to commend it The not a new one, how ever Away back in the beginning history similar methods of burial prevailed, and it must be admitted that in the selection of places for de- powiting their dead the ancientd were deeply impressed with 'a necessity of gelecting tombs calculated ' to receive and preserve from- decay and corrup- tion the remains of departed friends is artistic is no but idea is of Nationa: insurance At Work. Ottawa Free Press As time goes on the Insurance Act in Ureat Bmtain gradually, justifies it- self, in the mama. It true that various cases of real grievance keep cropging wp, and perhaps the law contghues, an the. people's proverbial ungratefulness, to lose more votes than it wins' for its authors. But the second annual 600 page report on the operations of the act exhibits in plain figures its immense benefit. Among the thirteen million insured over seventeen million pounds (about ninety million dollars) has been dis- bursed medical benefits. Rather less has been expended upon men, more upon women, than had been cal- culated. Evidently, formerly worked on the [hat is accordance 18 in women have in sickness bill and loss remedied. the treated already : for fear of doetor's of wages.

'A remarkable suggestion -is ad- vanced by a Russian scientist. Could the vital functions of animals be completely suspected for a period and then restored to full vigor' an économie revolution would result. The stock on the farm which yields no profit in the winter, such as bees and sheep, might literally be laid as- fde until spring, costing nothing dur- ing the unproductive season and yielding a profit as soon as they be- gan to incur expense. The cost of shipping live stock of all kinds would fal! to the irredue- thie minimums With vital funetions sitspended all kinds of animals, birds and fish -cpuld be made to or- cupy ie smallest possible space in the scale of life, but with the frank without injury to themselves or of any deterioration in their food value to be received in full flesh and vigor at the end of the journey or when néeded for use. Such a hiatus in the existence ol man could be brought abont success fully would add materially to his ap parent life span and tide him over many critical periods Such are the thoughts occupying the mind of the Russian scientist, who in'making exhaustive experi ments along the very lines which sug gest them. He has succeeded in sus pending the vital functions of lower organisms hy drying and storing them by the application of 1 oisture He has accompliched the same ens in some insects by submitting them to varying. degrees of low temperi- ture and afterward applying beat.

Municipal Extravagance. Toronto Weekly Sum " Not the least of the causes eof the high cost of living Is municipal ex- {ravagance, which in Ontario, at all events, has been steadily piling up an increasing = burden of taxation. According to the latest official figures to hand, the per éaplta taxation of the townships increased, from 1900 to. 1912, &2 per cent. that of the towns and villages 73. per cent, and that of the cities 40 per went. Dur- ing this period there was an increase each vear of a million dollars or more. In 1912 the expenditures of the distribution of electricity had not become generally effective, ald now the new scheme of automobile roads and radial railways are to be under- taken. . 1t is evident that growth of muni- cipal taxation cannot continue much longer The per capita taxation of the Ontario cities, which is now more than $16, has almost 'reached the average of the New England cities, whose wealth and regources are doubtless very much graater. Muni- cipal taxation bears in some cases on fixed incomes and upon capital, but, on the whole it is borne by pro- ductive industries, the rewards of which are being steadily reduced by the accumulating burden of muni cipal taxes, customs taxes, the levy of combinations, and the charges of transportation The farmer, who is often chided for his parsimony, having raised his taxes in twelve years from $4,690.- 000 to $7,972,000, seems to have done very well for the faddists and promoters of extravagance. In The Same Boat. The house doctor of a certain thea fre sometimes tires of his* office, hence the following One evening an excited usher rushed to the doctor's seat, and whis pered a brief message The occu- pant rose at gnce and both men left the orchestra hastily and made for the dressing-roomhs "it's the leading lady," wailed one of the actrésdes, mesting them; "come this way." ' "Have you poured water on "her head?" enquired the doctor, sdlemn- Wo, "Yes, from the fire-bucket." "The fire-bucket!-- what a fearful plunder! Here," and he scribbled a line on a card, "take this to the drug store and get it filled." When the leading lady found her- self alone with the doctor, she open ed her eyes. "Doetor," she gasped, "you're a good fellow, aren't you? 1 know you are aware there's nothing the matter with me. 1 want a day off, and 1 don't want to go on in this act. Can you fix it?" : "You bet 1 can," said the doctor, wringing her hand, sympathetically, "{ ain't no doctor, I came in on his ticket.' is Superstitions About Animals. One of the superstitions perpetua- ted from age to age among the com- mon people, is, that the human body weighs no more after a meal than before. If there were any foundation fof fact in this idea no human being could ever get fat. In almost every country in Euro- pe there is a current belief that the presence of crickets in a house is a fortunate omen, and that the sing ing of the crickets at night-betokens good luck for the next day. French housemaids have a pet su- perstitutivn that it is unlucky to kill a "'money-spinner," i, e, spider, and therefore spare many webs in situa- tions where they can be left without suspicion of negligence.

"hrigtian Herald David Fairchild, who has hunted the world over for plants of economn- value, and introduced them into this country, has communicated some interesting facts about insects to our National Geographical society, whic has in turn given them to the pub- lie. He says the champion aero- naut is the king grasshopper, which has the ability to jump one hundred times its thousand miles before the wind. erful singer, its shrill note some times being/heard a mile away. The males along are musical, and the fe- males listen to their melodious woo- ings withiears which are on their forelegs. Being so musical it would rdly be expected they would be such fighters among themselves as they are, or cannibals, eating each other when there is not enough other food at hand. The ants are described as comnmun- the individual interest is merged in the community.

Amount Of Sleep Required. Climate has something to de, says the London Chronicle, with 'the amount of sleep required by a man, In India, for instance, sleep over {lkes people at the most unexpected moments. Speaking at a dinner given in his honor at Shula when he gave up the post finance member of the council, Sir Guy Fleetwood Wilson re called hig first budget statenient be fore the council. "The day was ab- normally hot and close, even for Cal cutta in summer time. Partly owing to the heat, but partly, no doubt, te the wearisome effect of my first at tempt at oratory, one by one every single member present went to sieep, and It ig the simple truth that after a while I actually fell asleep yyself inthe course of the delivery of my statement." Thi# surpasses the feat of the late Duke of Devofishire, who paused in the middle his maiden speech to yawn ists, because Canny San As+Sardy holed out on the first green his friend from over the bord- er asked: "And how many strokes did you take?" T "Eight," replied the Englishman, "I took seven; so that's my hole." The Scotsman ventured no reply; but when on the second green the Engltshman repeated © his former question, and made inquiry as to the. number of strokes taken by his op ponent, the latter godded his head, and with an expression of infinite wisdom on his face, gently murmur- ed: "Nay, nay, my mannie; this time it's my tur'rn to ask first.""--Ans- wers, eager tste---- To Keep Skin White, Velvety, Wrinkle-Free C.
