slouch hat In his hand as he tapred on
the shoulder Of business-l looking young
man wearing silk hat.
The young man had entered as quickly
as possible into q crowded public ele-
vator In building devoted TO stores and
Offices, finding just room enough 60

with asudden start. rushed down through
the remaining floors.
My friend, who made you the Judge
Of courtesy on the subject of wearing
headgear In public place" answered
the young man as he caught his breath,
but before he had finished his sentence
the elevator had bumped on the shaft,
and the bakers dozen OF men andwomen
In it had hurried OF, making room for
another crowd waiting to enter the
elevator to be carried for business pur,
poses to the Offices rented on the eight
immense floors OF the building.
s. The question of elevator etiquette,
said O man who was in the elevator at
the time of the above incident, sis q
matter to some extent ut least Of per-
sonal taste, but In regard to certain
classes OF elevators the rule has become
settled by general custom. Thus there
are certain class of private and semi
private elevators In entering which,
should lady be present or enter,
gentleman would always remove his
hat. These include, OF course, the
private elevators In the large flats, those
semi-private In hotels, and In dry goods,
notion, or otherstores where the patron
age almost exclusively consists Of
ladies. In such cases no question
arises of the requirements OF elevator
etiquette"
"a class Of elevators In which general
custom has established that not to re-
move the hat is not q breach OF good
taste comprises elevators in the public
buildings, such as the Government,
county, and city buildings, and the
large Office buildings, in which there
are generally two to four elevators side
by side and a constant stream of hu-
manity entering and leaving the same on
matters OF business.
g It Is a fair estimate that those
crowds that use elevators In the busi-
ness portion of the city outnumber those
who ride on street cars-over 1900
persons, by actual count, riding on one
elevator in o notion store on State street
In one day.
"All Of these elevators are crowded
with men and women who are on busi-
ness intent and eager to transact it,
and the few seconds spent in the eleva-
tor are as much q part of their travel to
their destination and as public as the
street, sidewalks, or cars by which they
have reached the building. "-[Chicago

In the midst Of these gay young
Americans noticed one or two
English ladies' moving slowly and
with graceful dignity, and conversing
In low tones They were both tall
and stately, and unusually handsome
women, though not as faultily fault
less as the fAir Mauds who feed on
the roses and lie in the lilies Of life.
Both were dressed In black, and
impressed one at Q glance with an
idea Of refined elegance and high
breeding.
They wore close little bonnets-
though not such as left them bare
headed-and wells of black net, which
added to their clear compilations and
soft, dark eyes.
They wore short, half-ittiDg walk
ing jackets of 6ne black cloth, simply
trimmed, and no "bouffantn drapery
to spoil the effects Of their pretty
cloaks.
Whatever absured customs In Lon
don deserve our ridicule, surely the

On the following Sunday morning
his church was crowded with home
guards, soldiers, and Confederate
sympathizers, each filed with half

suits. 1t was hot day in June. La
the opposite corner were the deacons
of the congregation. The white

behind the pulpit longer than usual
that morning, but at last the services

on the assemblage as it solemnly
knelt for the prayer on which the
fate OF the congregation was hanging.
