Cremation at GOTTA.

A cremation ceremony was recently
performed ct Gotha, the body being
that Of M. Sitter. He was q decided
believer in cremation, and died about q
year ago, leaving directions for the
treatment of his remains. The cere-
mony has necessarily been deferred
first for the legal sanction of cremation,
and then for the society which calls itself
The Urn" 10 arrange the apparatus.
The occasion drew together large con-
course Of people. and about three hun.
dred were admitted into the chapel
with tickets. The body arrived accom-
panied by the sounds Of solemn music,
and entering the building this gave way
to the plaintive chant Of German
hymn. The head OF the clergy of Gotha
then delivered the funeral Grafton, and
proceeded to speak of the position which
he and his brethren had taken mp in
reference to the practice of cremation.
He explained that II be did not then
pronounce the benediction OF the body
Il was only because this pious duty had
already been performed by another
priest at the time Of the temporary in
terment, and NOT to show any disap-
proval OF the present proceedings. On
the contrary, the attendance Of nearly
all the clergy OF the district was spec
ciaIly decided upon, for the purpose OF
publicly and solemnly rnaiifesting their
approval Of cremation, and Of declaring
through him that they saw in it nothing
contrary to the spirit Of the Gospel or
to apostolic practice. There was not
one passage to be found either in the
Old or the New Testament forbidding
the burning Of the human body nor
could any good reason be given against
disposing Of il in this way. After the
Lords Prayer had been recitsd aloud,
the body, enclosed in wooden case,
was lowered into cremation vault. At
the end Of two hours the remains were
reduced to ashes, and these having bsen
collected were enclosed In an urn.
sealed, and formally delivered over to
M. STEERS executors. 49, Home Journal.

THE JADxp BRAIN.-In O recent Iec-
ture on Overworked Brains, DIR. Ag-
new, Of New York, observed that vari-
GUS diseases increase as large cities are
approached. Never in any age have
mans faculties been taxed as they are
now. The great problem 10, how every
one can do his share of the world 9
work, and still keep well. The civil
zation Of to-day does not call for any
faculties that man does not possess,
but it calls upon him to use in the best
manner the faculties he has, and to
learn how to bear the strain Of living.
No organ in the body is so abused as
the brain, and no organ is so fitted for
daily use Yet the brain is not SO sus-
ceptible to disease as some suppose.
We are enioined TO give up all habits
which cannot be defended by the high
est kind Of reasoning ; TO carefully de-
termine our ability to stand work, and
above all not to suppose ourselves ca
pable Of doing anything and every
thing.

The fundamental idea OF the fan ID
said TO have been hit upon q great
many centuries ago at certain Feast Of
Lanterns in China, where the beautiful
Kan.si, daughter Of an eminent man
DARN. found herself 30 warm that, con-
trary TO all etiquette, she was obliged
to take off her mask, with which--part-
ly to hide her bushes, partly to cool
her heated face-she commenced upon
herself the process which we now call
" tanning" The action was seen and
admired by KANSAS young compan-
ions and at once, says the legend,
stem thousand hands agitated ten thou
