5 R wo ridin RNs ia People tell us every day that they “did not know we take full charge of funerals; thought ‘we’ did only cremations.” They are surprised when they visit our institution and see its perfected equipment; its cleanliness and its entire afrangefrient for the comfort of those who require our service. STAR—WEDNESDAY, NOY, 17, 1915. PAGE xe ay iNe Vea alll (1 ¥ Corner of the Chapel and Entrance to Library CARE FOR THE DEAD The Cremation Society of Washington ha modern equipment for the ‘care of fune given direct to us— $50.00 to $150.00 will pay all the cést of a funeral whether the body is to be SHIPPED, BURIED or CREMATED. Heretofore the peo- ple of this city have paid from $250 to $500 for this same service. We have the most complete institution for the care of the dead that th in this city. Our Columbarium is absolutely fireproof and now contains the ashes of over THREE THOUSAND CREMATIONS. We have FOUR INCINER- ATORS and do not have to disturb the ashes until they have become cold. Every Person Who Has the Remains of a Friend or Relative Cremated Should Insist on Seeing the Ashes Before They Are Disturbed. Our incinerators are so constructed that the re- s disappear before the casket—the body composed originally of the four gases— oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen and carbonic acid— passes into the air—leaving nothing but the lime formation of the bones. ‘There are no ashes from the casket—there is no smoke— there is no odor. We Ask That Some Friend or Relative Always Remain and See the Crema- tion From Its Beginning to Its End. We have all our caskets made in Seattle, and pay more for them than any undertaker who buys outside of the city, the wood grown here being better material for this purpose than any other, whether earth-burial- or cremation is required.
