Strange Funeral Customs.

Curious customs were observed at
the funeral. at Ilford. England, of the
Russian gypsy child, Mark Cedre. The
boy was dressed in his best clothes,
with a new red hat and shoes Of the
same color to match, the shoes being
beautifully embroidered and ornament
ed with brightly-colored beads. Each
mourner placed silver and copper
coins In the coffin, and the father put
some bread and meat with the money.
The father tremendously poured clar.
ct over the coffin before 1t was lowered
into the grave. Afterward more Of the
wine was sprinkled over the coffin.
During the afternoon the ceremony of
"trisn" was observed, the mourners
sitting round fire and making mean
tations for the spirit of the departed.
The first of a series of funeral feasts
was held six days after the ceremony.

Economical Handling Of Salt.

The salt harvested in the Saline
valley of California Is now transported
to Swansea, the nearest shipping
point, 26 miles away, by means Of an
overhead tramway, which was recent
ly completed at cost Of 100000. The
material is conveyed In buckets, and
the hourly capacity of the line is 20
tons. A very interesting feature Of the
line Is the fact that the downpull Of
the buckets as they make a descent
Of the mountain Is utilized in raising
the buckets over the next grade. Salt
has been mined there for years, but
the amount of the product has been
limited to the local consumption, as
the expense Of getting the salt to the
shipping point by mule power has
been prohibitive.

Ancient Forms of Soap.

1t is probable that some of the in
gradients, especially the essential oils,
which enter largely into the compost
ton Of modern soaps, were employed
In early times for the same purpose.
Soap in the form Of vegetable ashes
mixed with grease was in vogue
among the ancient Egyptians. A sim
liar preparation was used by the He
brews, and when jeremiah said !:
Though thou wash thee with nitre
and take thee much SOAP" he referred
to "borak," procured from the ashes
of the saltwort and other washing
herbs" Borak is In use among the
Arabs to this day.
