The ancient Egyptian eustbær of burying, jewels and other froasures with the dead, is heitgei revived in America, where Mr. Frederick M. Patterson, President of the National Organisation of Undortakers, has estimated thak £4,000,000 in jewellery is lowered annually into the grave,

It has always been thin, Irish custom to bury the doud clad in the best possible army . and as the new immigrants gained wealth, more and more added to the contents of the coffins.

While the American funeral has been constantly gaining im magnificenes, the Englishmus goes to his grave in unchangies simplicity. The total amount of jewellery buried with the dead in this country would probably amount to less than $1,000 x year," said Mr. J. R. Hurry, sec- retary of the British Undertakers Association, to a Daily Express representative. "The amount of precious metal used in the adornment of caskets and coffins would certainly got roach' more than £10,000."

As showing the difference în the burial customa of the two countries, Mr. Hurry mentioneri the case of a British undertaker who sent a body over to tim United States in what he con- sidered a particularly fine casket. He was notified that this had been replaced, on arrival in America, by a casket of oxidised silver, valued at £1,200,

Recent reports of the supposed superiority of Feng Yu-heiang's medical corps in handling wound- ed has been found to be nothing more than superior methods of evacuating wounded from the front to base hospitals. Practically all work on the wounded is "done by foreign surgeons.
