HiT SWIFT SPECIFIC CO; ATLAX7A, CJL, H.rm.tioally Sealed. An Americanised Russian haa pat ented a new process of embalming, which consists in casting a solid block of glass around the subject to be pre. served, through which the features and outlines of the body can be per fectly visible.

The day was stormy and the streets were wet and slippery. The newspaper man was coming to work shortly be fore I o'clock. As the car on which he was riding approached Lotta's Fountain he Jumped to the pavement with the intention, of getting under cover aa soon as possible. But he struck a slippery spot on the asphalt and went down with a crash. Hla knee waa wrenched, his umbrella was broRen, his glasses were smashed, his coat was torn and altogether he look ed like a wreck. A number of people rushed to his assistance and soon a iaro rmwd had collected. He arose unaided, however, and looked around hlin In a daxed sort of way. A spec tator grasped him by the shoulder, turning hiin toward the retreating car. "Get the number and names of the grlpman and conductor. That's the only way you can get damages," he shouted. The journalist surveyed his destroy, ed property for a moment and then remarked: "My friend, I do not know what you think about tt, but It seems to me that I have had damages enough.
