Extravagant Funerals.
The late John Jay had this to say in
Tiis will about extravagant funerals
and the custom of wearing crape as
mourningf: "Refrardinff th extrava
gance in funerals and ttiourninr as un
seemly and burdensome. I wish my
funeral to be severely simple: and I
ask my. children and grandchildren,
whom I thank for their constant affec
tion, to observe my wishes in this re
tiurd, and let any mourning they may
wear for me be mild, inexpensive and
without crape." The injunction mipht
well be followed by many with; less
means than Mr. Jay's family possess.
Ostentatious display at funerals and in
mourning- is one of the costly and con
spicuous follies of the day.
"Last June, Dick Crawford brought his
twelve months old child, suffering from
infantile diarrhoea, to me. : It had been
"weaned at four months old and being
'-sickly everything ran through it like
water through a sieve. I give it the
usual treatment in snch cases, but with
out benefit. The child kept growing

I- then started the father to giving
' Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
3)iarrhoe0 Remedy. - Before one "bottle
)fthe 25 cent size had been used, a
marked improvement was seen and its
continued use cured the child. Its
.weakness nnd puny constitution disap
peared and its father and myself believe
iChe-dhild'e life was saved by this remedy.

If the American aldermen would take
a few trips on the tramcars of the gTeat
provincial cities, say Liverpool, Man
chester, Birmingham where the city
owns and operates them York, etc.,
and those of the metropolis itself, he
would return to America admirably
fortified by experience to renew his at
tack upon or his appeal to the street
railway cbmpanies of the municipality
he in part represents for superior ac
commodations for the long-complaining-passengers,
.says a correspondent of the
Boston Transcript. .' The system ' here
is as well-nigh perfect as it is possible
to be; and I am not quite certain, but
that parliament itself, in granting
charters . to various common carrier
companies applying for them, makes
tlie stipulations which prove so con
ducive to the comfort of the traveling
public. - -
During the past few months I have
patronized the . tramcars . and omni
buses quite extensively, but thus far I
have failed to observe, the least bit of ,
overcrowding or any delay or in fact a
single word on the part of driver or
conductor which could by any stretch
of imagination be construed as uncivil.
In the first place, there is no question'
but what the law distinctly states that
there shall be no overcrowding; that
there shall be so many on a seat not
Dne more but if necessary one passen
ger may be permitted to stand. This
applies to both inside and out. I do
not know the reason of the concession,
but this is certain, that under this ad
mirably arranged order of things the
humble or distinguished and exalted
can take a penny or two-penny or more
expensive ride, preassured that it will
not only be without- inconveniences
and annoyances but with easa and
pleasure. If a conductor' was' to per
mit a second person to stand either in
side or out he would be instantly re
lieved by one of the inspectors on the
route who at intervals board the cars
to check the way bill, which shows the
number of passengers carried during,
the journey. The incivility- which one
occasionally experiences in American
cities of drivers declining to take notice
of would-le passengers waiting on t he
sidewalk is pracfieally unknown here,
for the men know full well that two
complaints of this character would cost
them their situations.
To every passsenger is given a ticket
from a package numbered consecutive
ly, which must be shown when called
for by the conductor, though this very
proper jjrovision is rarely exercised, for
the young conductor, who is invariabl y
a bright fellow, seldom makes a mis
take as to who has paid and who has
not. In the matter of boarding or
alighting from the car the ends of the
conveyance are used, but only one at a
time. That is to say, the door whef e
the driver stands is not used for the
time being, the passenger always mak
ing his or her exit from the end of the
car, and the same upon entering it. In
this way any possibility of accident in
that direction is avoided. The schedule
of time for starting and 'arriving at
certain points en route is admirably
maintained, and the experienced trav
eler knows almost to the minute what
time a car will arrive at a certain spot,
though the place may be two or three
miles from the depot. Wo I really think
it may be truthfully said that the en
tire arrangements and details of the
r.treet car system in . England are as
nearly perfect as possible. There is a
very important advantage which the
passenger has here which the directors
of companies in America do not. vouch
safe. In Boston, for instance, every
passenger pays five cents if he rides for
five blocks; here you can go a couple of
miles for a penny (two cents). If the
average 'Englishman had to pay out five
cents for a mile's ride he most certainly
would walk. The principle the less the
distance the smaller the cost encour
ages riding and keeps the cars well
filled.
A Hard Customer. . -
Two hunters in the California Sierras
were returning home after a day's hunt,
when their dog scared up a panther
that took refuge in a tree. Each
hunter had four shots left, and the first
hunter succeeded in breaking the pan
ther's hind leg, but failed to dislodge
it. The other man then fired his com
plement, with the result of only inflict
ing a flesh wound. v ith' ammunition
exhausted, and the panther still lash
ing its tail in defiance,' the hunters held
a consultation, and finally hit upon a
plan. Making a running noose in a
lariat, one of the men climbed an ad
joining ' tree, and, with a long pole,
tried to slip the rope over the beast's
head. But the panther was too wary,
knocking aside the pole every time
with his paws. Suddenly the man saw
another chance, and quickly slipped
the noose over the broken leg and drew
it tight. Then he climbed down the
tree, and both men began to pull, and
presently down : the- panther came.
There waste mass of panther, dog, men
and clubs, and, when it dissolved, the
men and the dog -were pretty-badly
scratched, but the panther was dead. -

A "Baked Banana."
That familiar expression in the fruit
trade, a "baked banana," does not ree
fer to a banana that has been baked in
a "culinary sense. But any wholesale
dealer in the fruit will tell you that it
is a banana that has been too hastily
ripened in a garret, the result being
that, while it is nice to- look' at, it is
squashy inside. Bananas are picked
green in order that ' they may not
decay during the voyage northward,
and are ripened in dry, upper rooms,
in. which stoves raise the tempera
ture, to a more than tropical ardor.
It is a banana that remains too long in
one of these rooms, or gets too near a
stove that is, in ; trade terms, a "baked
banana." ' "
