MEMORIAL DAY BEGAN WITH
DECORATION OF CHILD'S GRAVE
Writ in to th Chattanooga Times,
Mrs. Mary A. A. Fry. a prominent south
era woman, gives an account of th In
esntlon ef th beautiful custom of
strewing th graves of old soldiers with
flower and th subsequent setting asm
of a stated day for observing th cus
tom. Credit for th idea of Instituting Deo-

Mra Charles 1. WUllama, a daughter of
Major John uowara oi siuieageviua,
riMr.l. IT. v.iahanit. ws a liwvtr
and statesman and as colonel of a Geor
gia regiment contracted a disease whion
resulted In death, being burled In Co
lumbia. . i
Hi widow and little daughter visited
the srav dally and comforted them
selves by covering It with flower.
Gradually ther cam to decorate un-
nulraA mvai nur hv. The death of
th little girl later left the work of
decorating th grave to th te reeved
mother and from this dally practice the
custom was evolved.
;, In Mra Fry' own word, th Inaugu
ration of th custom by Mra William
1 glvM '
"Th sorely bereaved mother than
tnnk ehsro-M nf thssa unknown srravea
for th child's &k and a ah cared
for them thought of the thousands of
patriot grave throughout th south, ,
far away from horn and kindred, and In
thla way the plan was suggested to her
of setting apart one day In each year,
that love might pay tribute to valor
throughout the southern states.
'In March, 1S6, as secretary of the
Ladles' Memorial" association of Co
lumbus, Georgia, she addreased a com
munication to the coiumnu Tim, sug
gesting our "Memorial Day an extract
from which follows:
" W beg the assistance of the press
and ladles throughout th south to aid
ua la th effort to set apart a certain
day to be observed from the Potomac
to the Rio Grand and to be handed
down a a religtoua cuatctn of th
south, -to wreathe th graves of our
martyred dead with floors, and w
propose th twenty-sixth day Of April
as th day.'
"Every southern state observed this
day In 1166 and th legislature of Geor
gia t aside the twenty-sixth day of
April as a legal holiday, which has been
sacredly observed ever since."
Mra Fry say General John A. Logan
and . other prominent northern people
wer In Richmond, Virginia, whan th
day was observed and, being impressed
with th beauty and appropriateness of
th servloe. succeeded In having th
custom adopted In May, 1168, two years
later than th southern women.

How Animal Sktna ' From Tropics

The many big gam shooters among
wealthy Britons who go to far distant
and wild countries where the Hon, the
tiger and so on are to be found are al
ways particularly- anxious to preserve
and to have set up for home display the
skins of the animals that have fallen
ft prey to -ineir prowess.
Unfortunately, the sums thus obtained
have often to be treated in a very primi
tive style In the first instance, from the
taxidermist and fur dressers' point of
vlow, says London Tit-Bits, and through
ths influence of tropical climates and
imperfect preparation they arrive in
England as ' stiff as boards. So stiff
and brittle are ther, Indeed, that unless
they wer gently handled they would
break up Into fragments.
Some of th rarest and most beautiful
skins in ; th world are treated at a
union establishment ln'the cast end of
London, prior to being handed over to
th regular rur oresser. At th place
