A Boston daily quotes the following pithy sentences from a bright writer:
Who cares for the cast-off bones of a mortal? It 's all sentimental folly. Pagans and Christians both know better than to care for something that is of no value. The Pagans were propitiating the ghosts of their relations, when they coddled the remains. And I 'm sure the newest developments of Christianity, as a Science, prove that the body is of no value at all. Spirit is Substance; Spirit is King.
