GRADUATION CUSTOMS IN THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY The conferring of the degree of doo- [ tor of medicine was a much more im« 1 posing ceremony 300 years ago than - it is today. The graduation of a medi- ; cal student was generally celebrated with much ceremony, and for several days there were music and feasts. The historic features of the medical examination and graduation of this period I ■ have been immortalized by Moliere in ■ "Le malade imaginaire." This charm- . ing and instructive comedy was produc- • e«i in 1665 for the special enjoyment ot ' the king and court. From the raising of the curtain till it falls the pieoe is the most scathing satire on medical art I and science. No detail concerning the ! professors, practice, teachings and in-. I structions is omitted that coulS supply a point for raillery and ridicnle. Incredible as it m>y appear, the m&- • jnrity of students attained the degree • . of bachelor, and conversed Ifwrncdly of • j the nature and cure of disease before I having seen a case. The great object | of mediral education in that day was ' to know anil discourse on all that the ' ! ancients had said about health and di- • \ soase. After two years or devotion to r . this course of study the student was eli igible for the Baecnlaureat. which was | followed at intervals with further tests, and then came the* examination for "li- * ^ • cense." admission to the "vesperie," fplj lowed with "capping." ' The scene takes place in the amphitheater of the old mediral school of Pari" or Montpellier. says Dr. Martimer Frank, in nn article on Medical Instruction in the Seventeenth Century in a recent issue of The Joural of the American Medical Association. We see a crowd of old French medical eelcbritea j of the seventeenth century, including _ j doctors, surgeons and apothecaries in I, full professional glory with their four- „ 1 cornered caps, and red robes trimmed i with ermine. Beneath them sit a num1 . Iter of students, wearing the hlark robe . of a bachelor. The dean presides and . opens the ccrcmonii-s with a long discourse on the glories of the institution. , The obji-ct of the assembly is then diss closed, this being the examination of a n candidate, to determine if he can give suflVient proof of the necessary qualI. ifications or becoming a licentiate for li graduation. The candidate having for- . nished brilliant proof of his capacity, falls on his knee and receives the aposj folic benediction. After an interval of six weeks or more the candidate is adie.it tod to the "vesperie." which consistt ed of a pompous enlogy-on the dignity i- end importance of the medical profession. On the final day he proceeds to ig 'l,.. oath, swearing faithfully to d observe the statutes, to reverence the opinions of his seniors and never to ., make use ilt remedies except those sanc-' 1, tinned bv them. The enndidate solemn1»* repeat" the immortal ' single word tl "juro"; the dean then . thrusts the j- square bonnet on his head, accompanying the act with a slight tap: and the r- worthy licentiate, is henceforth privitt leged to practice. The bachelor, having id undergone the learned ordeal with auob. cess, delivers a flowery address and ■n thanks his masters for the honor ooni- ferred. This lengthy ceremony with its i- innumerable dinners and banquets of old-time dimensions, which forms the ig substance of Moliere's sparkling satire, k gives a true picture of the seventeenth •0 century graduation ceremonies.

DOUBLHROVEN May C. H. Readers Can No Longer Doubt the Evidence. This Cape May C. H. citizen testified ago. Told of quick relief — of undoubted The facts are now confirmed. Such testimony is complete — the evidence conclusive. It forms convincing proof of merit. Mrs. Kldredge. Mechanic St.. Cape May C. H„ says: "One of the family suffered for years from bachache and . attacks of "sharp. shooting pains through the loins. Rest at night was disturbed by irregular passages of the kidney secretions. A number of medicines were used, but no relief was had. Finally. Doan's Kidney Pills were procured at Corson's Pharmacy and they 1 drove away all symptoms of the trouble." (Statement given January 11, 1908.) Over three years later Mrs. Eldridge said: "We tiiink as much of .Doan's Kidney Pills today as ever." Price 50c. at all dealers. Don't simplv ask for a kidney remedy— get Doan's Kidnev Pills— the same that Mrs. Kldredge recommends Fostcr-Mil-liurn Co- ITops.. Buffalo. N. Y. , "Captain, why do they always ■ pall a ship 'she'?"
