Greenwood Ceme.ery's Unclaimed Dead.
Superintendent Wells tells story illustrat-
ing how selfish human nature crops out even
in the sacred duty of burying ones dead At
tached to the cemetery is a receiving vault
that will hold 100 bodies. Coffins are kept
there until lots are procured and graves pre-
pared for them. The fee for leaving bodies
at the time of which he spoke was 81 each,
and it was kept at this figure until it came to
be noticed that the vault was gradually fill
ing up and the arrivals were constantly larger
than the departures. Investigation showed
that some of the bodies had been left there
for years, waiting the further attention of
friends who never came. There were ascer-
tanned to be over 500 of these coffins, and
finally the corporation dug a trench and
placed all of them in it, styling the grave
1.-The Unclaimed Dead" After that the fee
for receiving bodies at the vault was raised
to $50, which sum is applied on the burial lot
account when lot is bought Since then
only few bodies have been deserted in the
vault-New York Tribune.

expenditure of Sl3,2S4,OOO ror education,
of which over S9,OOO,OOO went to pay the

Americans, more than any other ma
tion in the world are victims of stomach
arrangements. This is owing to the
hurried manner in which they eat their
meals, and to the amount and quality OF
food eaten, rich food being cheaper here
than in any other country of the world.
There are very few Americans whose
stomachs are in a perfectly healthy con
dition. Most remedies for arrangement
Of the stomach are offered in the form Of
bitters, tonics etc, which merely stimu-
late the stomach and afford temporary
relief. De Ravens Dyspepsia Cure is a
remedy that supplies what is wanting in
the digestive juices of deranged stom-
ach, and is the only remedy offered to
the public that cures all forms of dys.
pepsia, indigestion aud iatulencY. For
