THE new idea, that of a wife Grating
over the remains Of her own husband,
is not growing in force. The only time
when the ordinary man gets word of
praise is at his own funeral. To put
his wife up as the speaker of the oc-
casion is to effectually block this one
solitary chance; she knows too much
about him, as a rule.
