dered at, since what people want is tact,
d fitness, polish, skilful management-in
short, business qualities. A neatly executed
piece of work-that is. from the side of ap-
pearanceS, will please better and do us more
good than a fine piece of work irrespective
of appearances. Woe to the bungler in our
business
THE matter of help, too, is important.
Il is requisite that our employees shall be as
competent in most things pertaining to the
business as ourselves. They must be men
who will not give offense By deed or word,
and above all they must be scrupulously
honest. 1t is not easy tn combine these
qualities, since the kind of men we want are
slow to take up the calling. The honesty Of
their help is with most undertakers a source
of anxiety. People in affection are not
wont to be careful. Things of value are
left exposed to view and an INSCRIPTIONS EN-
ploye could thus cause irreparable Injury to
his employer. An ul9erJaker's responsible
titles are thus more various than is commonly
supposed.
There is far less diversity of custom in
Chicago than one would think, and far less
lavish expenditure of money for funerals.
know undertakers who have had a fair
business here for six or seven years who
have never had a funeral the gross expense
of which exc seded $75. Ihave seen reports
Of extortionate charges and imposition on
the part of undertakers, out | think that
there is fully as much imposition on the
other side. 1t is no uncommon practice
for people to come in and want the BEST of
experience viii usually gauge his credit by
such clews as these. The family that
means to pay promptly will, as rule, figure
pretty cl5sely and the undertaken who
gives credit under these circumstances
rarely loses by 1t. Lavish people are our
bane.
Ignorance of the cost of things is, how
ever, a cause of much apparent extrava-
gance. | once knew a family TO order a
floral piece that could not supply for less
than $3.50. On having their eyes opened to
the expense Of such a tribute $40 piece
was gladly substituted. Had the fir, {
order been filled without word the prob
ability is that the dertaker would have
been called extortionate and would prob
ably have given ris5 TO hard feelings on
the part Of those he sought earnestly to
serve.
IN a cosmopolitan place like Chicago one
would naturally expect t. find cropping
out more or less OF the old world customs
in respect to funerals. We have represented
here almost every country under the sun.
Yet it is surprising that especially of late
years, foreign elements have fallen into
our manner of doing things. Even race
and religious differences that lew years
ago were SO prominent are growing to be
less observed Wakes are now aeld, but
they are little more than what many Prot
estant people could feel jusylfie in having.
The stern, crude form OF burial once uni

are also fewer glaring differences between
