s.lvsr-Plating the Dead.

Ono OF the most serious questions which
modern civilization has to deal with is the
disposition Of the dead. A sanitary war
was long ago declared on the Cemetery, and
cremation was suggested as a substitute.
But cremation does not seem to be growing
in favor. and fu leral professions continue
to wind their way to the over-crowded
cemeteries. Probably one reason why Gre
nation has never become popular is the
fact that it reduces the dear departed TO
too impalpable form. And then, too, there
is the ever present danger of overturning
the urn containing the ancestral ashes, in
which event non-se1timental winds might
whisk them away. No one cares to think
Of the remains OF his ancestors, flying be-
fore brisk gale over land and sea.
But the genius of Silver-plater Downing
of st. Louis has discovered remedy for
all this. Mr.. Downing claims that expert
ments have convinced him Of the feasbil-
ity of silver-plating the dear departed
For many years silver could only be plated
on copper surface. Then some one dis
covered that a surface of plumbago would
take on the plate With this suggestion in
mind, Mr.. Downing went to work on eggs,
chunks of cheese and roasts of beef. The
experiments proved successful. At the ex-
piration Of a years time these articles were
found to be as fresh as when the process
was applied.
Mr.. Downing is confident that his method
would perfectly preserve the dead. With
the pores Dramatically sealed by the plate
the body would keep for ages. OF course a
condition of very great rigidity is produced
by the process, and therein lies its value to
mourning relatives. When the dear de-
parted had been beautifully sill
ver-piated, or gold-plated either,
their bodies might be used as statu-
ary They might be placed in inches in an
cestral halls or used to adorn the grounds.
What consolation it would be for ons to
have bis dead relatives iD all the sheen of
gold and silver where they might be always
gazed upon! 1t is true that evil-minded
persons might examine the plated dead and
intimate that the mourner's grief was
measured by the thickness and grade of the
metal employed. But this would be small
thing. So, perish the cemeteries and crema-
toriesl Live the silver-plated dear departed !
