The Buratas-Chast
Sa-away introdible things are happo ing that the imaginstion is apt to strika work and to take the incredible for granted? Bub the spectacle of Hinda burial rites performed on the Sumar Downs is one to stir the most jaded sense of wonder. As 1 write, the sound of the queer, whining abant of the mourners lingers in, my ears; the sorid fumes of the Burning pyre hang in my nostrils, I seem to soo the brown, bara focted gurea squatting in' pray..or busy about the complicated detaia of the long ritual, and I hoow that I did but dream it all.
There had been a
a death in the Kitchener Military Hospital at Brighton. That is not a frequent occurrence, for in this ho pita!
which
has dealt with more than 3,000 sorts, the death-rate has boun Daly 00
00 per cent from
caures, and the death-rate from wounds even lower than that. And those who have seen the Indian Medical Service's work of this heapital will understand how the rate is kept so low. But that is by the way. The dead man was not a combatant, but one of the per- Tounel. The fumbral, therefore, acked the picturesque element of woord d men s bearers. But he was a Brahman, and of the Arya Samaj. There are many of his kind in the personnel; and so instead of the usual single ambulance wagon there wore three full of mourners; and instead of the brief ritas of the Jate or the richar bat scarcely longer ceremonies of the Sitha
