Tic chemistry, etc, before they can
claim to embalm. When a colored
man passes these Boards and is grant
ed license, he is certainly competent"
In addition to the knowledge ac-
quired from practice, he has visited
every city with more than ten thou
sand inhabitants, from New York to
Mexico, studying every known method
OF the art of embalming, so that he is
able to say in the fullest confidence
that in all the methods he is at the
head of the profession of embalming
and can give the most satisfactory
service; so that if you employ him to
do your embalming you have man
thoroughly competent, up to the pres
ent time in methods and who can give
you the very best of service.
He said; MANY very valuable lives
are lost by employing incompetent
men in embalming. There are men
who possibly know how to keep
body for twenty-four or forty-eight
hours, but whose work results in the
spreading of the disease by turning
loose germ life, so that it only re-
mains a few weeks or months until
others have developed the same dis
ease and died; all because the en-
balmer knew nothing about disinfec-
tion. Ask any reputable physician
what amount of damage can be done
by an incompetent embalmer who is
wanting in the knowledge of how to
dispose of the germ life in typhoid
fever or other infectious or contagious
diseases. Certainly in such time
you need competency"
Death is never welcome visitor
and the horror and sorrow which
comes with him are often ameliorated
by the man Of competency-one so
skilled as to be regarded as an artist
In his profession. Every one agrees
that all dead bodies should be en-
balmed as much for sanitary reasons
as for keeping the dead pleasant; for
of all the unpleasant conditions none

AS TO PRICES.

When asked about prices for such
service, he said:
"Our prices are consistent with serv-
ices and material used No man
serves now for nothing. The good old
days when a man died at midnight,
the church bell rang the neighborhood
arose from it's slumbers. carpenters
made a free coffin and good women COW
cred it with black calico are gone.
Our prosperity has carried us away
from those times and we are wanting
the very best that we can get. All
persons do not die from the same
cause Deaths from some diseases re
quire more time and more expensive
material and service, just as a physi-
clan charges for different operations

services not as efficient. A new man

hope to give other than the best serv-
ice and make prices in reason"

is more unpleasant than a body in
the advanced state of putrefaction--
no matter how beautiful the person
was in life or how amiable his diposi-
ton. Still there are people who are
so economical GU that they will not
have it done at the proper time; but
wait until the body has far gone into
decomposition and decay, so that they
are blackened and good results are int
possible. There is a "Too late" period
in embalming just as there is in re-
ligion or medicine.
The Nashville globe. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1906-193?, 1907-09-13
AS TO TERMS.

When asked about terms, he re.
piled:
Our prices are reasonable and are
not inflated. In some cases men en-
ploy the method of having honest
people pay others debts. They give
credit to all who ask it and those who
pay pay the other mans bills. It
has been our method to rather do
business for those who can and will
pay, at a living rate, than take all
kinds of risks, wear out our outfit so
that when the man who has had the
good Judgment to insure or join some
good organization wants a funeral,
the outfit and horses are all worn out
We will be glad to do business for any
one who can pay and for those who
can give assurance that pay will be
sure and certain in reasonable time
we hope to observe the Golden
Rule to all in our dealings. There
is business enough for all who
are mere as well as for us and we want
the friendship and cooperation of all
men in the husiness therefore. we
shall be glad if all who read our an

HUNT FORA HANeMAN.
Difficulty In Finding Some One to Es
ecute a Murderer.

The British army was once in diff
culties through the lack Of a hangman.
Murder was committed by a soldier
in the Crimea, but nobody could be
found to carry out the sentence OF the
court-martial.
1t was announced that EGO and a
free discharge would be granted to
the man undertaking the task. AT
last a man volunteered. He was a
newcomer to the army.
On the night prior to the date fixed
for the execution they locked up the
hangman in a stable to keep him safe.
In the morning the party at the gal
lows waited, but there was no hang
man. He had gone mad during the
night, or else he was now Stimulating
madness.
The officer in command turned to
one of his captains with: Captain,
you will have the goodness \ hang
the prisoner" The captain changed
countenance, but he pulled himself to-
gether, and appealed to the s%ergeants
with: Which of you will hang this
mani"
And to spare his captain. one OF
the men volunteered. He afterward
had the satisfaction of iogsing the
mar who had volunteered and failed.

1t is n thing to claim, another
thing to back up the claim by a state
ment that If it is not proven true, there
will be no charge for the service or the
goods.
1t is in this way that A. H. Cordi-
ner sells Hyomei, for he has so much
faith in its powers to cure all forms of
catarrh and bronchial troubles, that he
gives an absolute, unqualified guaran-
tee with every outfit that If the remedy
does not cure, the money will be re-
funded.
Hyomei is based on natures way Of

one of it's splendid dollar dinners at
the Union Pacific hotel in that city
Saturday evening. The large dining
room was filed to its capacity. Man

which was a credit to the hotel and
the occasion. In addition to the hun
dred Laramie citizens present, there
were fifty or more from Cheyenne, Of
whom thirty-ive were members of the
legislature. Saturday afternoon the
visitors were all met at the hotel by
citizens in carriages and automobiles
and driven over the city, which they
found to be a thriving and up-to-date
town.
Saw University for First Time.
"They were shown through the uni
versity buildings, many Of whom saw
Wyoming's leading institution Of learn
ing for the first time. Later they were
driven to the state fish hatchery, six
miles out Of town, which is in charge
of s. H. Campbell, who has done such
excellent work in the propagation OF
trout in Wyoming. The fish hatchery
and the university are both in SPLEEN

lndIscreet Revelations.

There is a kind Of Freemasonry
among men that does not exist among
women. Men are all in league with
each other. Practically speaking, all
have the same faults and vices, but
they charge their sex with none. 1t
would be an admirable thing II women
would copy men In this respect. The
world would not know half as much
about us II only women would hold
their tongues about feminine failings.

THE HUMANE SOCIETY.

Mr.. Hinton of Carbon county has in
PRODUCED a bill charging the powers OF
the Wyoming Humane society. The
bill also makes the governor, state su.
perintendent and attorney general
members OF the board of trustees by
virtue Of their office. An annual re-
port of the society is provided for. 1t
is believed that If a report is made to
the people of the work of the society
IT'S usefulness can be considerably en-
larged. Such report would be taken
up by the newspapers and published
broadcast over the state, bringing vic.
lators of the law before the bar Of
public opinion and holding them up to
the contempt and condemnation of all.
Few realize the extent of the work
already performed by the society, al
though 1t has bad no means with which
to carry IN It's operations other than
the dues of its members and they are
few in number. When the necessity

people, more funds will be forthcom,
ing and the society's influence for good
will increase from year to year. When
one sees a horse cruelty beaten or
driven when unfit because Of lameness
or sores, indignation Is aroused and a
demand is made to know why the
humane society does not act. Very
frequently when people send in com,
plants, they ask that their names be
suppressed, for the reason that they
by their information incur the enmity
Of violators of the law. The society Is
always willing to suppress the names
of those giving information, but feel
that they should not be asked to work
entirely in the dark. Communications
should not be anonymous.
Hundreds of complaints have been
made to the society during the brief
period Of its existence and much good
has been accomplished by sending
warning letters to those who practice
cruelty upon animals and upon chill
dren. Mr.. Hinton's bill will be supple
mented, it is hoped, by a small appro-
priation for the purpose of paying a
secretary q small salary and to provide
for the necessary work in organizing
and prosecuting the work in the sew.
eral counties. Thus far the secretary,
Miss Theo. Baily Of Cheyenne, has per
formed much work without any com.
pensation whatever. She is anxious
thai this work be turned over to some
energetic, responsible man, but 1t is
questionable whether the trustees will
consent to part with her valuable ser.
vices.
All who are interested in the humane
treatment Of our dumb animals and In
the proper treatment Of children should
lend their aid to the society. Any
communication addressed to the So
ciety at the state capital will receive
prompt attention and everything pos.
sible will be done to correct evils and
prosecute fragrant violations of the
law
