HlNooo CREMATION.
The wsy the People OF the East Dispo
Of Their Dead.


The wsy the People OF the East Dispose
of Their Dead.
The practice OF burning the dead
IL universally practiced by the Hin
docs and Is very curious spectacle.
A writer gives the following descrip-
tion Of the cremation among them Of
a poor man which he himself wit
messed. Two coolies carried the body
upon a rude litter, woven from coarse
grasses, and held together by outlines
of bamboo. Two of the dead mans
brothers followed, chatting pleasant
ly. Four stout sticks of wood we're
driven upright into the ground, at
the corners Of an imaginary parallel
ogram about six feet by tgo. Re-
tween these four posts were loosely
laid sticks Of dry, cheap wood. When
the pie was a little more than three
feet high the body was laid upon it.
A dirty piece of crash, of the quality
the coolies wear about their loins,
partly wrapped the dead. One Of
the brothers stepped up and poured
about four ounces Of oil over the
body. 1889. ~ " .,
More wood was piled upon the dead.
The pile was lighted and the crema-
tion began. The two brothers ap-
peared very interested in the ignit-
ing, and decidedly pleased when 1T
was accomplished. They squatted
down upon the ground, just so far
from the pile that they might feel
that their scant, filthy garments
were fairly safe from the sparks, but

A Winter Bath at Alaska.

up in Alaska the method Of TAX
ing bath Is somewhat historic, re-
marked John MCGEE. Every trad
ing post has bathhouse, and the
people are supposed to avail them
selves of its privileges once q week.
A person accustomed to living in a
milder climate would have a good
deal of hesitancy about undressing
in one Of these places, as the tenn
perature Is always below zero In an
inner room an arch OF stone Is built,
so that fire made beneath can pene-
trate through. A trap door in the
roof answers for chimney. Aftef
the stones have become thoroughly
heated and the smoke has passed out,
all the Goals are removed and the
trap door closed. In this room stands
a cask Of warm water and another
that is ice. cold. When the batheI
enters, he pours hot water on the
stones until the room Is filed with
steam; then, taking seat on Y
bench, he waits till the Precipitation
streams from every pore In his body.
Next he takes a bunch of dried twigs
and leaves, prepared for the purpose,
with which he scrubs himself till ill
the impurities have been removed
from the skin, following this with Q
wash-off in warm water and soap.
He concludes his bath by dashing a
bucket of ice-water over his body
and then rushing to the dressing
room. where with his teeth chatter
ing he resumes his clothes"

When, however, il can be no longer

in his depressed condition he can pos
sibly assume, and starts for the house.
Courageous as he may have been at
starting, however. he becomes .
pitable picture before he reaches
his destination. His courage ooze5
out in an inverse ratio to the
distance; that is, the nearer he
gets the faster it oozes. He discusses
with himself whether he would bet

or go off somewhere and quietly

in luck il he were also dumb. But that
never happens save when the lovers
are alone. 1t Is a curious fact which
may be commended for observation and
study to the students Of sociology, that
two lovers who can sit in parlor
whole evening without making noise
enough to keep the mice in their holes,
can go into a. public hall and by their
clatter cause the people in three rows
of seats to become inwardly prOfane.
WHY the tender passion assumes symp-
toms so diverse in different places and
at times so iflopportune Is not even to
be cor; ectured; 1t is one OF those mys-
teries OF which the universe Is full,
and which must be received in the
arms of faith without even so much as
an effort at explanation.
After the sterrors OF courtship have
been endured for season the misery of
a proposal is in order, and IL there we're
no other objection to getting married
than the necessity of making a pro-
posal, this of itself would seem to be
sufficient to diminish the number of
marriages "a per cent. In a single year.
To man not In love asking woman
to marry him seems to be very simple
and easy mat tar, but To the lover, tern

there is no valid reason, a proposal is

near enough to watch all the chang
ing phases OF the cremation, and to
see when 1t was contaminated.
They united dirty ray from about
a small bundle one Of them had
brought with them. They took out
a small earthen bowl. 1t was clean
and shining, and so was the brass
chattee each lifted from his filthy
head. The chattees held water.
The bowl held curry and rice. They
fell to eating with gusto. And, pray.
why not? They were eating to live,
Their brother was burning to live
to live in Hindoo paradise. From
the Hindo point Of view this state
was far more blessed.
The cremation was finally COM
pleted. Two distinct kinds Of ashes
were left. The human ashes were
carefully gathered into an old chat
tee. The authorities do not allow
these ashes to be thrown into the
river, and they are never thrown
there in the presence OF Europeans.
The ashes of the wood were swept
swiftly away. The bits Of wood not
burned were frugally collected to be
utilized in the next funeral pile.

would probably be just as devoted to
some o,her girl, he regards as an in
suit, as to him, for the moment, at
least, the world contains but one
woman, and she is the deity at whose
nod his little universe fairly trembles.
While to lovers themselves their
business Is of the most momentous
consequence, to people who are not in
love, or, having been so, found their
complaint speedily and permanently
cured by matrimony, it Is a triviality
endurahle only because it Is so funny.
For it is not to be denied that to the
world at large the lover is source of
infinite quip and jest, a standing butt
of Jokes and humor. Nor Is the fact
without reason. for, as a rule. lovers
carry on their business 50 openly that
even the unobservant gan not fail to
see what they are about, and to be
amused or annoyed accordingly, as
temperament or caprice may Indicate
A pair of lovers in a street car, for in
stance, never fail 10 advertise them
selves and their calling as openly as
though they wore placards on their
backs. for as soon as they are seated
the billing and cooling begin, and go on
without intermission until they get out
again. Inc people across Inc aisle may
smile and nudge each other. the con-
ductor may tip a wink to the motor
man, who looks back from time to time
in griDning enjoyment OF the specta-
Gle, regardless Of the fact that he is
endangering human life by indulging
his merriment: the rough fellow in the
end seat may burst into q loud guffaw
as he leaves the ear, and in audible
tone allude TO the "antics of them two
loonies," but the lovers themselves see
nothing, hear nothing, their ears catch
no sound but the murmur of the voice
that is sweeter than the music OF the
spheres, their vision has no horizon
beyond the eyes;
Eyes so transparent
That through them one sees the soul.
1t is we'll that the lover is blind; he
is additionally fortunate in being deaf,
and other people would be sometimes
