ETIQUETTE IN ELEVATORS.
Western Dictum Respecting the Re

Western Dfctum Respecting the Re-
 movaI OfGentlemen's Hats.
 From the Chicago News]
 1T say, don't you know enough to take off your hat in the presence of ladies?" said an elderly man with slouch hat in his hand as he tapped on the shoulder of business-look- ing young man wearing silk hat. The young man had entered as quickly possi- ble into crowded public elevator in a building devoted to stores and offices, find ing just room enough to enter, facing the door as the elevator, with sudden start, rushed down through the remaining floors.
 "My friend, who made you the judge of courtesy on the subject of wearing headgear man after he had caught his breath, but before he had finished his sentence the. ele- vator bumped on the shaft, and the baAer's dozen of men and women in 1t had hurried off, making way for another crowd waiting to enter the elevator to be carried for busi- ness purposes to the offices rented on the eight immense floors of the building.
 "The question of elevator etiquette" said 8 man who was in the elevator at the time of the above incident, "is 8 matter to some extent at least of personal 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 in semi-private hotels, and in dry goods notion, or other stores where the patronage almost exclusively consists of ladies. In such cases no question arises of the require ments of elevator etiquette.
 "A class of elevators in which general cus- tom has established that not to remove the hat is not a breach of good taste comprises elevators in the public building 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 constant stream of humanity entering

SOMETHING FOR MALARIA.
QuIni ne in Disfavor. TFrorn RaItimore Morning Herald)


 In the Kharkoo region of Russia, quin- inc is considered of no account for the cure of chilIs and fever. The Kharkoo doctor catches mess of live crabs, pours whiskey over them until they become hilariously drunk, and then puts them in 8 hot oven. After being well dried, they are pulverized, shells and all and admins tered in drachm doses. Where the crabs most abound in this country, in the waters of the Eastern shore of Maryland and the Eastern shore of Virginia. the inhabitants have long since abandoned the use of Quinine and sensibly resort to pre- yention in the use Of pure whisky. In the malarial sections of the great West, Southwest and South, this once famed the disease. In territories where the vir- gin sod is first broken, the malarial poison exuding therefrom spreads pestllence far first settlers, an admixture of whisky and quinine was the favorite dose for the chills, but after years of dosing in this crude manner, quinine has long since been gysn up and whisky anS ony n.a Experience taught these settlers long ago, that the amount of -qufnine required to drive out the malarial poison in the blood, left in it's place, if not a worse poison. condition of the system made worse in stead of better. The effects of the qui- nine were clearly defined in long continued headaches, dlSordered StOmacns, clOu0eQ mental faculties, disturbed sleep, and morbid appetite, and the only virtue dis covered in it's use they thought attribu- table to the whiskey in the mixture. The medical profession has very gratefully modified it's belief in quinine as specific. Gaillard's Medical Journal, October, 1885, contains an article by l.. E. Ander- son, M D., Norfolk, Va, in which the learned doctor uses this emphatic Ian guage. 'tI hope I may be pardoned for saying that the present empirical use of quinine is worthy of the darkest period of the dark ages, It Is a blighting shame and disgrace to our profession.' The people exposed to malaria now fortify their system against the approach and in- roads of the disease proceeding from it, and by the use of pure unadulterated stimulant ward off attack. Now that Duffy's pure malt whiskey is the only absolutely pure whiskey. free from fusel oil, as has been tested by chemists, it Is the recognized cure in Iualarial attacks and so recognized by the people and the medical profession.

Rev. pr. Munger,s Address-A Poem
 By pr. Phelps.
 At the Sufield Literary Institute com mencement exercises on Wednesday, which were held at the Second Baptist church, the address before the literary societies was made by Rev. Dr. Munger of New Haven, who took corded to nature" MT. Mungers address cannot be fairly represented by any con- densed report. It was an admirable a-gu- ment for education that shall give nature its place, that shall get at the fundamental, healthful disposition to love nature and learn from her. A few suggestions here and there must suffice: Mans work is always marked by imperfection. His mistakes outnumber his successes But civilization is the destiny of man, though at times it may be so bad as to seem worthless. The great question is, what is to be retained and what given up in the realm of nature, and what to be sought for in art. The vast majority of people never take walk, meaning by this not a constitutional, but that which is seeking na- ture as one seeks a friend for converse. This is very different from coming down from mountain knowing only how many steeples can be seen from the height MT. Munger gave some very interesting illus trations of active, loving study of nature, incidental to which was an account of the way in which wheat and barley actually trav- el to plant themselves, the motion being due to the alternate contraction and expansion of the bearded grain under changes of temper ature, the barb p1eventirg g motion one way, so that each change of length makes slight progress Primary study should em- brace the examination of natural ob- jects, not a catalogue of them. All should possess some knowledge of natural science, enough at least to teach us to see what outlines of knowledge in each department. When one has found the heart of nature he is not far away from God. He should turn to nature for mental and physical refresh ment, the great want of American life.
 The music following the address was an arrangement for flute and organ, played by
 Next came the address to the graduating class by the Rev. $. Dryden Phelps, repre- senting the board of trustees. MT. Phelps recalled the time when girls were not admitted to graduation, expressed his satisfaction at the change, referred to the class motto, and after few words diplomas.
