roo COSTLY.

That the judgment of an undertaken as to what funeral ought to cost may differ from the Judgment of court con- cerning the same matter is shown by the outcome of trial which has just ended in Montreal. An undertaken in that city sued a Mrs. Sheedy to recover $152.75 for the burial of her father. The plea of the defendant was that although she considered herself liable for the ex- pense of her fathers burial, still the funeral proceedings had been carried on by the undertaken in a manner entirely beyond deceased's position in life, and she rendered confession of judgment for $40. The plaintiff refused to accept this offer. Tn rendering judgment the court remarked that, after carefully looking over the undertaker's bill, it came to the conclusion that, although the prices charged were not exorbitant, still the mode of burial was certainly out of place, considering deceased's po- sition. At the time of his death, de- fendant's father was practically a. pau per, who had been separated from his wife on account of incorporate habits, and received assistance from two sis- ters and his daughter, who had besides to support three children. The under takers account included such items as the following: $60 for the casket and plate, s15 for endbalming the body, s10 for full dress robes, $2.75 for undercloth- ing, SIP for ffrst-class hearse. There were besides three double carriages, A witness in the case declared that de- ceased had never been as well dressed and cared for during his life as after his death. If the dead have any knowl- edge of what takes place on earth, de- ceased must have been greatly surpris- ed and must have felt much gratified over the honor given to his remains. Under the circumstances of the case, said the court, the offer of $40 must be declared sufficient, and judgment given for that amount only.
 One-hundred-and-fff -fffty-dollar funerals for forty-dollar corpses are very com mon, and it is not often that any pro test is made against them, except by the burial reform association.

Again attention is called to the sen- sible and useful way in which honest poverty is dealt with in the city of Berne, Switzerland. For two years
 there has existed in that city an in- surance fund for supporting the unem- ployed of good character during the
 winter months. Its total receipts were 11,657 francs, or $2,SSO, of which $2,O67
 was paid out, chiefly in daily allow ances to the unemployed members of
 the society. Of these the number last
 winter was 226, out of a. total member ship of about 400; the daily allowance
 was 20 cents Ca franc) to the single men and 30 cents to the married; and the total so given was 9,es4 francs, or $1,937 The funds of the society were supplied only in small part by the monthly dues of members, which amounted in the year to but S277: while the city of Berne voted $1,000, and in dividual gifts were more than $700.
 Of the 226 unemployed members, 163 were unskilled laborers, such as always make up the bulk of the unemployed
 everywhere; IS were painters and stuc-
 co-workers. 13 roofers, 10 masons, nine carpenters, four stone-cutters, three
 cabinet-makers, and five of other small trades. The payments began early in
 December and ended March 4. The good
 done was so noteworthy that the city
 has increased it's aid to $1, AGO for next
 winter, besides providing extra work last winter by tearing away, at public cost, a part of the old city wall.
 It will be interesting and instructive to watch the working of this simple and sensible plan. The committee which
 has managed 1t says of 1t: Experience has shown that an insurance fund for the unemployed Is great benefit to those who insure themselves It is also true that by this means the police and poor guardians have had much less call on them for the relief of our unemployed
 fellow-citizens The possibility of self

 Algernon Potter made a mistake when he tried to climb tree. Algy in his schoolboy days was the best climb CT on the North Side. He could "shinp up trees and fagpoles with an easy grace which won the admiration of his mates, and they dubbed him "cham- peen." But this was when Algy was young, and slim and wiry, and trees in that part of the city were but saplings. Now Algy is stout in form and soft in wind and muscle, while the same trees about the trunks of which he was wont to twine his Timber legs with ease are now grown to stalwart proportions.
 Potter, his inamorata, May, who was to be bridesmaid at the wedding, were lounging in the shade under the trees in Lincoln Park on Sunday last, when a strong gust of wind caught Bessie's filmy kerchief and sent it whirling up into the air, to lodge in the branches of a big tree. Algy saw the delicats bit of lace-webbed muslin float by and recog- nized it as one he had given Bessie a few weeks before. He was bound to get it back, and was ready for action even before Bessie, on missing the spidery creation, called out:
 ''Oh, Algy, get it back for me. won't you, dear? I would not lose it for any thing. It's more precious to me than all the others I have"
 This settled it and Algy tackled the tree. It was a hot day, and he had a new sixty-f1ve dollar suit of clothes on. The tree was biz poplar. and the ker-

QUIET.

The Glorious Fourth was unusually quiet in this city, The quiet did not indicate that the fire of patriotism Is burning low in New Haven, but very wet raln Is unfavorable to the burning of low-tariff flreerackers. So there was comparative peace and less than the usual damage to property and person. Some whose patriotism does not run to cheap noises, smoke and bad odors enjoyed the day so much that they almost hoped that all the coming Fourths which they might be privileged to see might also be wet and quiet. But when they bethought themselves that this country might lose it's in dependence If it did mot annually re- mind itself by means of cheap noises, smoke and bad odors that 1t is in- dependent they were willing to sacrifice themselves for the good of their be- loved land, and hope for Fourths that would be fair, fiery and noisy. But fhe day was pleasant one for change, even if We didn't have a chance to ex- perience the full effects of that oenefi- cent Democratic policy which has found full. glorious and appropriate fruition in cheap firecrackers.

TERRESTRIAL LIFE.
Anomalies in the Distribution of Ami
 mals on the Earth's Surface.

Anomalies in the Distribution of Ami mals on the Earth's Surface. From the London Saturday Review.l The apparent anomalies in the distri- button of animals on the surface of the
 earth have for a long time attracted the attention of the zoologist. How came the lenurs, those frail inhabitants of tropical forests, to live along the south ern parts of Asia, separated from their kin in Africa and Madagascar by the wide ocean? Why should ostrich-like
 birds live in Africa and Australia, and again at the southern part of South America? Not long ago, zoologists, re- lying upon the current opinion of geolo-
 gy, played the Titan with land and wa ter, inventing great continents and planting them in the oceans. Thus at their command "Lemurla' arose from out the sea to make land passage from Madagascar to India; even at the
 present moment many assert that a. huge continent, now sunk in the waste of waters round the southern hemis- phere, stretched from the cape to Aus tralia, and from Australia to Patago-
 mia.
 But geology, as it has abandoned the theory of catastrophes for the theory of l slow transformation. is also giving up
 belief in such gigantic alterations of land and sea. The great oceans. the great land masses. it tells us, date as far back as geological evidence goes Oceans and continents may have al- tered their outlines; Malaysia, now an
 archipelago. was once continent. Af- ricaa noM continuous land-5nass, may
