WON'T DIE AND LEAVE WORK
Japanese Mortality Rate Lower In
siIkworm Season, It is Said, for
Remarkable Reason.

There are many reasons for death.
But 1t is q remarkable thing that dur
Ing the silkworrn rearing time in the
silk districts, even the sickest people,
contrary to all expectation, do not die.
The rate Of death among old people
and invalids in the silk regions dur
ing the busiest season is very low in
deed.
What Is the reason? Well, most Of
these people unconsciously think,
swell, If I die now, everything will
be very much upset because l do not
finish my work. and if die, too will
be very much upset in the other world
because no one here will have time to
give me n good funeral and to see
that am properly and comfortably
buried. SO guess I had better live
just bit longer" And remarkable
to relate they do go on living. The
will to live makes them bear the Ills
Of living and they do not die during
the growing season.

a. There was an old woman who lived
mot in shoe but Oh farm in New
Hampshire. She made contract to
deliver two dozen fresh eggs to an
anaemic family from New York who
were building up on milk and eggs
after wearing season, and these eggs
were TO be delivered ut certain hour
daily. Although she had to, go by
blackboard she always fulfilled her
contract to the last egg. ,
. But one day as the old woman was
putting on her "bunnit" preparatory
to start an accident broke one Of the
twenty-four fresh eggs and there was
no time to wait, for the, laying of an
other. What was she to do? Fail to
keep her appointmentso deliver the
twenty-three eggs with an excuse?
This clever old woman did neither
of these things. she snatched up a
squnwking hen which had record as
good layer, cramped 1t into coop
and started out. On the. trip the
needed fresh egg arrived, and it was
added to the others and made up the

When the customer was counting
the eggs she noticed the warm one
and asked the reason. The old wom-
an laughed and told the story Of how
her fayorite dependable hen had al
most literally laid an egg in her hand.

for ten days there are people dying
everywhere. That is strange, too. But
really it is because the spirit no long
er holds them up. The, excitement is
over and with rest comes death; the
time of anxiety is over and the strain
is Ioosened and with the loosening
comes the END of life. y -.
In the silk regions there are not
many deaths in either the extremely
hot or the extremely cold times. But
just after the silkworms are trans
ferred to the cocoon beds, after the
strenuous days OF rearing them from
the egg are over, then they die like
flies in winter. 1t Is all matter of
spirit, or as some would call It,

Potters field here following his death
by falling from a downtown building.
When Victory Post Of the. Ameri-

engagements were made for a military
funeral. A firing squad and delega-.
ton of Legionaires attended the SER
vices at the mortuary, but when the
tcortege drew up to a newly dug grave.
in the Potters field, the Legion men
objected to the burial there Of their
comrade. The body was inferred at
Forrest Lawn cemetery. n 3 aS ,s3.5#
An investigation BY the Legion
aires revealed that several World war
heroes who died friendless and PENN.
less had been buried in the Potters
field. The bodies will be disinterred.
