upon coming to turn in the road, to
hear some one who was approaching
him swearing violently.
As he rounded the bend he was hor.

driving a yoke Of oxen and alternate
sly flashing them with his whip and
strings of profanity. The minister as

him upon the outcome of such vices

ours is a solemn business" said
an undertaken, land yet there hap
pens In it something over which all
concerned can reasonably be cheer
full.
THE grewsome old time coffin has
now been all but supplantea in use by
the modern burial casket, which in de-
sign and finish is as far from coffin
like in appearance as it is possible
to make it, and which is also made in
very great variety as to the materials
used and styles of finish and cost. \
1T Is not uncommon now for per-
sons IN health to indicate the sort of
casket in which they desire to be
buried when their time shall come,
and sometimes such a person may Sc
lect and buy casket to be held for
him. 1t is out of these modern changes
in our mortuary customs that we get
the occasional cheerful note of which
! spoke.
Some years ago there came to US
to order casket members of a family
whose head was then, as supposed,
mortally i'll; that he must die appear
ed beyond doubt; and it was desir-
able to make preparations for this
event in advance because the casket
required was of unusual size, and it
was also desired that 1t should be elab
crate In construction and finish. We
had the casket ready In time, but
when the casket was ready the man
began to improve in condition and he
continued to improve; and in the
course Of time he recovered his health
and strength completely.
Then there was the family with
that casket on hand, of which he had
no knowledge whatever, and they
came to us to dispose of it, which of
course We readily agreed to do. 1t was
a costly casket, though that was no
impeachment to its sale, for we make
and sell many beautiful and costly
caskets; but its unusual size was
against it, and it was some time be-
fore we finally disposed of it, which
we did at considerably below its first
cost. But this was loss which the
original purchasers were very glad to
sustain.
1--WE once had a customer who had
lost his wife and who came to us to
bury her, which we did. After the
funeral he came back to us. He had
selected the casket In which his wife
was buried and now he bought one
just like it for himself. He was a
man in health, with no prospect of
death, so far as that was concerned,
but he was greatly grieved and cast
down over the death of his wife, and
when he should die he wanted to be
buried in casket just like that in
which we had buried her So he
bought this casket and we held it for
him.
Something more than a year after
he met another woman with whom he
fell In love and whom he married; and
after that we got letter from him.
saying:
"'Sell my casket. I've no use for
1t now"
