1t is we'll that the whiskey-for- babes -
prescription Of the Board Of Health should be
amended by adding to it the words that the
whiskey shall be administered only upon the
order Of physician. There Is no doubt that
the original intent Of tho prescription Is ex-
pressed in the amendment. but 1t had most
certainly been misunderstood by some people.
The Prohibitionists. who knew nothing about
the prescription during the many years OF its
existence. or until their attention was called

Only those Of our citizens who frequent
the street markets ofthe east side can appre-
cate the importance OF the Mayors orders for
their sanitation and better regulation. The
spectacles that may be witnessed daily in Null

streets. or In the uptown italian settlements,
are repulsive. There 10 q medley of push
carts. gutter carts. sidewalk stands. and sup
ply stores filled with edibles that are unfit for
consumption. such as decaying nsh and meats,
vegetables and fruits. butter and milk besides
cooked things and composite substances.
These street markets are foul malodorous,
and disease, breeding; tho hucksters in them
roar forever: tens OF thousands OF people get
their food supplies from them. Tho sanitary
inspectors have striven to bring about some
Improvement In them. but the result has not
been encouraging.
The execution OF the orders that were adopted
ct the Mayors conference must certainly effect
. change for the better. The Departments of
Police Health. and Public Works are to COOP
crate In their execution. and the Fire Depart
msnt is to render assistance. At 10 O'Clock Of

A Ritualistic Summer School.

A summer school Of peculiar character
closed at Westminster. In Maryland, on the
22d OF last month. after a session OF two
weeks. 1t was the Summer School for
Priests. conducted under tho management
of the Order of the Holy Cross. whose head
quarters are at that place.
This order Is known to the public chiefly
because OF the association with 1t OF Father
HUNTINGTON. the Episcopal monk. 1t rep
resents the extreme school Of ritualism and
what is called Anglo-Catholicism in tho
Episcopal Church. ndoctrine and practice
1t approaches closely to Roman Catholi-
cism in many directions. but the lectures
and addresses at the school showed that
it Is opposed to the Church OF Rome in
others almost as decidedly as 1t Is arrayed
against Professionalism. 1t rejects the au-
thority Of the Pope. and one Of the subjects
discussed at Westminster was the best way
OF overcoming tendency to get under his
spiritual dominion. "Shall the American
people be guided in their religious devel-
oplnent from Italy by plant that takes
Its authority from across the Atlantic or
shall We have Church Of the Nation ?"
asks the Holy Cross Magazine In the num-
Der In which 1t reports the proceedings OF
the summer school.
The routine OF the school was far moro
distinctly and severely religious than that
OF the Catholic Summer School. At the
Holy Cross House the call for rising was
sounded ut half past o'clock IN the morn
ing. Then came the recitation OF Lauds
and Prime" In the chapel. From half past
0 until 8. the breakfast hour, "the Holy
Mysteries" were celebrated. During the
course Of that meal. and usually at all 9TH
ers. there were short Scripture read
ings. At half past 0 fierce and Morn
ing Prayer" were said. followed by half
hours meditation. The first school lecture
began after the conclusion of these SER

rupted at noon for the saying Of the

bachelor who desires to become q husband
should be able to earn living or should 9TH
erwise have the means OF life at his command
30 that he shall be able to provide for the
woman who is willing to become his wife, and
that thus the twain may enjoy welded bliss
without undue anxiety about the morrow We
notice by the municipal record OF marriages
that Just about as many people get married
here In hard times as In better times: whom
work is slack and money tight as when both
are plentiful We could not give advice in an
individual case like that which 10 presented to

ties: but We know that the love which laughs
at locksmiths can often act very boldly with
out ever having cause tos regret the action.
We are not prepared to say that the engaged

postpone the day OF wedlock merely because
the times are not so good as they have been or
as they will be after q while.
