A Hygienic and Human Method of Disposing of the Dead. When the great surgeon, Billroth, elect ed to the Austrian upper chamber, made his memorable speech for the rehabilita tion of the Medico-Military academy of Vienna, he pointed out some of the in evitable incidents of modern as compared with past warfare, which would make the educative function of such an academy mure than ever indispensable, says the Lancet. The advance of military science, he showed, with its arms of precision and Its smokeless powder, would so encumber the battlefield with wounded that the transport services, hitherto available for the removal of those to the rear, would have to be greatly improved in prompti tude and efficiency If the combatant arm itself was not itself to be paralyzed by its own fallen encumbering the ground. To this admonition the International Red Cross society responded nobly, and the exposition of the various modes of picking up and carrying oft the wounded which were on view at Rome during the last great medical congress satisfied the medico-military world that, If not abso lutely solved, the problem of carrying the wounded to the rear was on the high road to solution. But the dead on the battlefield offer as difficult a crux for the army medical or the Red Cross organi zation to deal with as the dying. How are they to be disposed of after those of the fallen who may yet be saved are happily put under treatment in the field ambulance? Not for the first time has the question been propounded to the war departments of the European powers. The other day the Emperor William, In view of the car nage inseparable from latter day war fare, took counsel with the medical staff of the German war office as to whether or to what extent cremation might not be utilized for the disencumbering of battle field after such sanguinary combats as t hose, for example, around Metz In the campaign of 1R70. The subject is full of difficulty, and even 'if cremation be_ eventually put In practice for such an' end it must, without question, call into operation a much larger, a more va riously disciplined medico-military per sonnel than hitherto. The electric light, after darkness has set In, may be trusted to aid in distinguishing the dying from the dead; but expert examination will be needed before such an irrevocable process as that of the crematorium is applied ta bodies in which the vital spark, not wholly extinguished, may yet have a chance of being fanned into flame. This examination will not be called for In the ease of those who are either killed outright or whose conditions is such that only a few minutes can intervene before rigor mortis begins to declare itself. It may be spared also in those cases where, after operation the resources of the field ambulance have failed to re-enforce the powers of life. But from the two sides of the battle field—from the front and from the rear—the crematorium will never be without food, all too abundant, if the pro visions of the Emperor William as to the “butcher’s bill” of the next great Euro pean war are to be realized. The subject, as we have said, is not now for the first time propounded. In the great international congress for the relief of the wounded in war. held in Paris twenty-eight years ago, Dr. Ber tani, the distinguished Genoese surgeon, who sacrificed a brilliant academic career and a rapidly extending private clientele to Organize the medico military depart ment of Garibaldi's campaigns, proposed cremation as the humancst, and from the hygienic point of view, the soundest modus operand! to be employed in the disposal of the dead on the battlefield. His proposal was ably seconded by an other sagacious Italian sanitarian. Dr. Castigllonl—seconded,moreover, by argu ments so powerful that nothing but the short interval between Its recommenda tion and the outbreak of the Franco German war explains its not having been put In practice during that most san guinary of nineteenth century cam paigns. The testimrny of the great soldier surgeons of Italy's struggles for inde pendence will, however, bear revival and recapitulation, especially under the aus pices of the “predominant partner” in the triple alliance, the Emperor William, whose capabilities in the art of war are not more conspicuous than his wise pro visions for the abatement of its horrors, and whose steady patronage of all that pertains to the sanitary protection of his people will one day reflect asi much honor on his reign as the most brilliant achieve ments of his ancestors in the military council chamber or on the stricken field. 300 pairs Charles Heiser’s best hand-made shoes for men at a bargain.

This is the way he worded it: "O Lord, now that I have flagged Thee, lift my feet from the rough road of life and plant them safely on the deck of the train of salvation. Let me use the safety lamp, known as prudence, make all the couplings In the train with the strong link of Thy love, and let my hand lamp be the Bible. And, Heavenly Father, keep all switches closed that lead off on the sidings, especially those with a blind end. O Lord, if it be Thy pleasure, have every semiphore block along the lines show the white light of hope, that I may make the run of life without stopping. And, Lord-give us the ten commandments for a schedule; and when I have finished the run on time, pulled into the great dark station of Death, may Thou, Superintendent of the Universe, say: •Well done thou good and faithful ser vant; come and sign the pay roll and re ceive your check for eternal happiness.' ” —Kft. Infidels. infidels sometimes say that the milk of human kindness runs through their veins, but no college has ever received an en dowment from an infidel, for Girard wa3 not an infidel, and although he prohib ited the entrance of preachers of the gos pel into the college which he endowed, he desired the trustees of the college to have the students Instructed from the best book of morals. The trustees unan imously decided upon the Bible as be ing the best book of morals, and it is used in the college. The Bible was not mentioned in the will of Girard. No hos pital, Infant asylum or other charitable institution was ever endowed by an In fidel; but churches of all denominations have these institutions, and care for them.—Rev L. S.
