The Craze for Ouintne.

''The use of Quinine Is growing

people possess a veritable craze for it.
They dose themselves with quinine

pear to regard it as a universal cure
and fevers, but for stomach disorders
and q score of other Ills.
'One customer of mine recently be-
came slightly nauseated after eating
and he took quinine, in the full be-
lief that it would put a period to the
theory that quinine Is good for the
kidneys and takes the drug regularly

wrong with his organs. These are just

people entertain regarding quinine. 1

 Mir. Shipman points out that the Church of England has come in the meantime to mend to some extent the havoc in the Sunday school hymnal caused by the rejection of the songs in which the insistence upon the vicar ious sacrifice seemed too extreme. IL has given even the evangelical fold the songs Onward Christian Soldiers and The Son of God Goes Forth to War" :" which replace Hold the Fort .'' March ing Along" and "Only An Armor Bear CT" Perhaps they have replaced these satisfactorily; and yet it may be won dered whether tIN Anglican songs are not too good.

OLD HYMNS AND NEW.

The hymns and songs that people sing in the church and the Sunday school are not always a faithful ref1ec- tion of their beliefs. Children, in par ticular. sing with little thought of the meaning of words. They seek the de- light and inspiration of the song, and they take pleasure in a rousing air. For this reason many of them still greatly like to chant occasionally the old Moody and Sankey hymns" and to pour themselves out in Hold the Fort" and "Hallalujah, 'Tis Done." At least. it seems as if they must; and yet a Sunday school authority. the Rev. Frank R. Shipman, writing in the Con- gregationalist, says that the Moody and Sankey hymns have gone out, on account of their somewhat radical pre- sentation of the doctrine of atonement, and have been succeeded by hymns of individual ethics" of a more pensive and philosophical sort.
 That there has really been a consid- ei'able change in this respect is evident to any Sunday school oldtimer who lis- tens to the devotional songs of an UT to date assembly of children. Whethei or not the children are to be congratu- lated on the change ethically we doubt whether they are to be congratulate musically or from the point of view of thorough enjoyment of the exercises With these venerable melodies there went certain emotional uplift which was priceless. The man who was a child of thirty and forty years ago must remember the thrill he received every Sunday from these stirring songs even If every moral precept which was then
