CREMATION is making rapid progress
in Europe. In Germany the Gotha
crematory was opened in 1878, and
200 bodies have been burned there.
There are 362 crematones in Italy.
In Milan there are 900 members Of
a single society. In France the topic
has been much discussed, but the
practice is still illegal. The Commits
tee of the Belgian Chamber has favor.
ably reported upon petition for law
making cremation optional. In Aus
tria, opinion is about evenly divided
for and against the practice. In Eng
land Lady Hanham and the wife of
Captain Hanham we're cremated in
1882, but they set no fashion, although
they brought the subject prominently
forward.

THE EFFECrs OF POISON.

Some Startling statements-Danger

king-views OF Medical Authorities.
For centuries IL has been contendod that
contain morphia opium, or some other
equally dangerous drug, and to-day nearly
every cough medicine in the market has
for its base some ono Of these deadly pois-
ons. In every state Of the union physi-
clans and coroners are constantly report
ing innumerable cases of poisoning and
death resulting from such compounds.
One authority states that these have done
more injury than opium smoking. A
purely vegetable and at the same time
efficacious cough cure has been considered
an impossibility. 1t Is for this ason that
eminent medical authorities aud public
men everywhere like DIR. James A. Steu-
art, Health Commissioner of Baltimore,
and Dr. Samuel X. Cox, of Washington,
have spoken so enthusiastically of the dis
covery of Red Star Cough Cure, which is
absolutely free from poisons or narcotics.
DR.. o. Grothe. Of the rooklyn board Of
health, and heads ofsimilar boards in other
cities, are also among those who have
issued official certificates in its favor.
