He may live in the United States, but when he is about to die he makes it clearly understood that: his remains are to be transport- ed to the Far East for final burial. To transport each body separately would be prohibitive in cost for the average Chinaman’s estate. Hence es- tablished procedure {8 to accumulate ®&large number of bodies until they make up a shipment and can be trans- ported ;at minimum expense. From the time the Chinaman dies until the shipload is being made up, his body is kept in a separate compartment of ® stone structure which serves as a cemetery. After placing the body in 1ts compartment or pigeon hole,/it 18, sealed in with a thin cement wall. Each compartment is numbered, and a suitable epitaph is written on the cement wall in powery Chinese char- acters. £ o Judge’s Black Cap. In olden days, the legal professior was mainly composed of clerics. : As the clergy werc not allowed to take life on any account, a difficulty arose when it came to pronouncing the death sentencé./ It was avolded by covering | the tonsure—that shaven circle at the crown of the head which was once universally the tokeén of priesthood— with a black cloth just before passing sentence, thus signifying that for the moment the judge was a layman and not a priest. As is often the case in 1aw, when “the reason for a custom itself has long since died ont, the cus- tom itself lives on. Hence to this day a black cap—which, by the way, Is | not shaped like a cap but is an ordi- | | nary square piece of black cloth—Is placed on the judge's head just before | the fatal words are spoken. | With Servants to Command. | A writer in the Indinn Daily News, { home In London for the first time in| | eight years, is amaved at the way fam-, ilies who once “did” with nine serv- ants now manage with three and those who managed with three now doing with none, according to the Christian | Science Monitor. ‘They seem to make everything for themselves,” he writes back to Calcutta,” “but I do wish they | wouldn't keep advising me to get a| bootmaker's outfit and learn to cobble for myself.” He' describes the “ready cooked” departments ‘of grocery stores, a‘new thing on such vast scales | 1n London, and concludes that life may himself, he will the more cheerfully return to India, where a man may command his servants and need not arm himself with the tools of many -trades. the Odd Fellows’ hall Tuesday, De-}| not seen for years?

[ e At Diamonds as Candles. When placed in a vacuum and ex- posed to a high-tension current of clec- diampnds phosphoresce or shine with_ different colors and some | stones give out light on being placed in a dark room: Most South African | dinmends when placed in a vacuum ex- hibit a bluish light, while dizmonds from other parts of the world shine with such colors as bright hlue, apri- cot, pale blue, red, yellowish green, or- ange and pale green. In a lecture de- livered in London, Professor Crookes stated that the beautiful green ala- mond in his colfection, when phgsphor- escing in a good vacuum, gave almost as much light as a candle. The light was pale green, almost white, Tolling the “Passing Bell.” The passing bell wus rung in Eng- Ush pre-reformation times for the dy- ing as weil as after death, The prac- tice grew out of the belief that devils and evil spirits troubled the dying and 1ay in wait to torment the soul when It had left .the body.

Army Goods.at Real Bargain Pfices A Few Items Are Metal Heavier Than Gold. Anybody. who has been allowed to handle a gold brick, perhaps on the oceasion of a visit to the mint, must lave been astonished to find how heavy it was. Gold is, in fact, twice as heavy as lead. Yet it is not the heaviest of metals. That rank is held by osmium, which Is one-sixth heavier than gold. At the other end of the scale\of weights we have lithtum, which Is so light that it will ‘float on water, It is queer stuff. Put a small chunk of it on your desk and you wilb, soon observe that it is_growing small- er. Before long it will disappear en- tirely, vaporized, Magnesium' is near- ly three times as heavy as lithium ; yet it is considerably Iighter than aluminum, which we are accustomed| to regard as so remarkable for its lightness of weight.
