NEW EMBALMING METHOD seals body in metal After years of research Marcus D. Rynkofs, of Los Angeles, an electroplating engineer, announces the perfection of "metemb aiming,"- a new process to preserve human bodies in death forever. After nullifying bacterial action in the corpse, it is hermetically sealed in a metallic element so closely fitted that all the minute features of the subject are brought out. By a secret process he will be able to encase bodies in bronze, steel, silver, gold and even marble and alabaster. The body can be cremated in the shield if desired, leaving the image. Rynl(ofs is shown with an orange and a pig which he sealed during the experiments.
