Until very recently numerously nt %end».-d funeral* had been very eouitnnn in Philadelphia.

Strange to *ay. it appears to bo due to the under takers of tliat city that th'*»e changes are taring mode, evidently they ure not mi calculating and *-liUh a* r^nou* writer* of Scthm Imre portrayed them.

This city is, how- ever, getting to l»o somewhat tulighteo- ed on tho subject of funeral*. A few ynars ago there were forty ur fifty car riage* to every funeral, hut now thi* number i* reduced to about eight." Of courae, the more jvopl# attend funeral* the hotter it i* for tho undertaker.
