armed and McGinnis got the

suRpETTE.s PHILOSOPHY.

-
No Reveals the Secret of Preserving Per-
petual Youth.
Robert J. Burdette is a sunny and
wholesome philosopher, in whose hui
NOR there is no lurking asp. In the
Ladies' Home journal he takes up the
role OF Solomon about where Solomon
left off in Ecclesiastes, and tells us how
to live, SO that when we are old all will
not be vanity and vexation of spirit.
But listen to the preacher.
"Some people carefully disguise the
fact that they are growing old, but a
coat of paint on an old house merely
makes it look smart; it doesn't keep the
rickety old stairway from cracking, and
it won't straighten up the window frame
that's gone a little askew as the house
settles. You can-or at least the man
from whom l bought my last horse can
fix up an old horse of seventeen years
to look like a risky colt of three or
four, and to act it, too, for about fifteen
minutes. But it won't last. There are
times when a woman who is walking
dlOnS blbl D1CdodlO UCCduO VI ACI PLl-
grimage between the fortieth and
fftieth milestones, feels inspired to run,
and leap, and dance, and sing, and re-
new her youth in various ways, but the
spirit is evanescent, and the fashion of
it passeth away, and she sayeth of
laughter, It is mad; and of mirth,
What doeth it?' And she looketh upon
the men singers and the women sing
ers, and the delights of the sons of men,
and behold, all is vanity and vexation
of spirit, and there is no profit to her in
that sort of thing.
But says you, can not one be
young hearted after forty2' Yea, be-
loved, after sixty or seventy. Down
to the days of white-haired old age the
heart may glow with tenderness, and
the quiet warmth of the June sunshine
of years ago stored away in it's cham
bers as ages ago the sun stored it's heat
and light away in the forest of the
earth, to dance and CLEAN and glow
in merry flames and summer warmth
upon the coal-fed hearths to-day. For
this reason, Omy young readers, rejoice
in the days of your youth, when the
light is sweet and it is a pleasant thing
for the eyes to behold the sun; let your
hearts cheer for you in these days of
sunshine and nights of starlight, and
remove anger from thy heart, and put
away evil from thy flesh, remembering
the days of darkness, for they shall be
manyV And the freight that will
come to glow upon the hearth and
dance in warmth and tenderness upon
the walls of your hearts chambers in
those days will be the light you are
storing away now. Be happy and light
hearted, then; but be the house of your
mirth as pure as a temple, and your
laughter sinless rs the songs of birds; in
all your mirth and dancing exalt wis
dom; and, indeed, she shall bring thee
to honor and give to thine head an
ornament Of grace; then shall the years
of thy life be many and thy heart be
ever young"

lawlessly slaughtering game out of

doubly in the position of outlaws.

ASHES TO ASHES.
The Testator Upheld.
From the Urn.1

An unusual case was recently decided
by court at Milan. DIR. Anelli, ply
sician and a member of the Cremation
Society of Milan, had deposited with it
a testamentary clause directing the Gre
nation of his body.
When DR.. Anelli, in July, 1894, died
at Cassano d'Adda, near Milan, his
family concealed this fact as far as pos
sible and had his body. after a church
funeral, inferred in the Cassano GENE
terry. The Cremation Society of Milan,
however, soon found this out and at
once commenced suit against the sons
and widow of the deceased for violation
of his last Will. The defendants stated
In court that their relative had, in the
last days of his life, expressed Christian
and religious views, which seemed to
them evidence that he desired Christian
burial.
The court, dissenting from this opin-
ion, held that the Christian and relig-
ious view of the deceased were quite
compatible with his testamentary dis
position to have his body cremated,
and judgment was entered against the
defendants, ordering the exhuma ton
and cremation of the body, the heir to
pay all expenses of this and the legal
proceedings
Undue influence, brought to bear at
the time of death upon the hrreaved
family, send to the grave, instead to the
crematory, hundreds of believers in ere
nation.
AS a nation, we favor fair play, and
| 1t seems to us that as a simple matter
| of fairness the relatives, who gladly ac-
cept the dispositions of the deceased as
to his estate in their favor should at
| least respect his request as to his own
| body
| Mr. Cobb, in Earth Burial and Gre
| nation" says very aptly that the most
sincere tribute to the memory Of our
dead consists in obedience to their
| wishes. The social amenities Of life
require us in daily intercourse with our
friends outwardly to respect their views,
although we may not accept them.
May love and fidelity strengthen that
respect when their eyes are closed and
| their voices are silent.
| We should have no services over
them that they did not approve of while
living, nor should we dispose of their
bodies in manner that violates their
! requests.
