BURIED WITHOUT COST.
Rich and Poor are Buried without
Expense in Switzerland.

Rich and Poor are Buried without
Expense in Switzerland.
There is at least one country in the world
where it costs nothing TO die. In some OF
the cantons OF Switzerland all the dead,
rich as well as poor, are buried at public ex-
pense Coffins and other necessary articles
are furnished on application to certain IN
dertakers designated BY the government
Everything connected with the interment
is absolutely gratuitous, including the grave
and religious service. All classes avail
themselves freely Of the law.
Appropriations are made for the medical
inspection OF the body, for advertising the
funeral, for the coffin and dressing of the
corpse, for the fune raj procession and hearse,
for the opening and closing OF the grave,
and for putting up and numbering the head
board. Furthermore, the grave must be or
namented by growing plants inamodest way
at the expense OF the community, but the
bereaved family has the privilege Of add
ing To such decorations. A special law
provides for the payment of subsidies by
Cantonal government TO the communities
in case Of epidemic.
In the canton of Glarus strangers as well
as citizens are buried at the expense Of the
state. The grave, too, must be kept in
proper condition for a term Of ten years.
The cemetery is the property OF the COM
munity, and is placed under the care OF
superintendent, who arranges for and con-
ducts funerals, keeps 4 register OF the
graves, which are numbered COnseCutively,
and sees that they are properly marked and
kept in order according TO date or burial, in
uniform rows, and the dead are all laid
I side by side, without distincN)n as 10 stand
/ ing in life or religious belN. Children,
| however, on account OF the Naller size
of their graves, are buried apart from the
I adults. In case religious services are dis
pensed with by request, bells are tOlled
| i'll the customary fashion and the recorder
| OF life statistics reads at the grave the per
/ sonaI record of the defunct Officials and
1 employees at burials are forbidden to re-
/ ceive gratuities. Wherever free burial
| has been introduced in Switzerland the prin-
| cipIe has been adopted that, inasmuch as
I death makes all men equal, there ought
/ to be no distinction in the inteunents OF
the departed. 1t is assumed that all citi-
l Zens high or low, rich or poor, win avail
/ themselves OF the provisions OF the enact
/ ment, and that all funerals shall be equally
/ plain and unosteutatfous.-B Boston Tran

street, TO say nothing of shopping or call
ing, without being accompanied by an
elder woman, her mother, relative or
friend as chaperone.
During the past few years there has
been a tendency in America toward a closer
imitation of all French etiquette, which
has brought i'll its train a strict construc-
ton of The duties of chaperone.
The unmarried woman who cycles must
be chaperoned by a married lady. As
every one rides nowadays, this is an affair
easily managed. Neither must the mar
ried woman ride alone Failing a male
escort, she is 10 be followed by a groom
or maid.
A woman is very fortunate Ii among
her men or women servants one knows
how to ride a bicycle. Ladies occasion
ally go to The expense Of having ser

maid take lessons SO that she could accom-

ones about her country home, at Madison,

company purchasing the " est Penn Glass
Works and operating them 10 months IN a

plant for a song and started the works.
But they only operated Them short time
and then shut down. Now this was not
what the subscribers to the bonus fund
wanted and was not in accordance with
the agreement. and they stopped further
; payment of the bonus. This did not suit
the Whitney Company and they made a
/ semand for the balance Of the bonus and
threatened to sue for il. But the company
failed to consider the article or agreement
eatered into with the subscribers in which
/ the company agreed to operate the works
straight along, 10 months each year, have

talked about enforcing the payment OF the
: balance OF the bonus, the people Kicked
/ and proposed To issue an execution and
