An Awful Big Price.
Two “mourners" were returning from a funeral at.. a very fashionable cemetery. " U ■ “Dr. Intone reads the services beautiful,” said one. “Don’t he?”Jaid the other. “Do you remember how impressively he uttered the words, ‘O death where is thy sting ? O grave where is thy victory ?” “Yes, very beautiful. How much do those lots there cost ?” “I think they sell from SSOO to $5,000.” “Gosh! It may not be much of a victory, but it’s an awful high price.”— Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph.
