joined by the Almighty Unsecured health virtue and
wealth to the seed of those who could not be per-
suaded by the threat of death in it's most fearful
forms to violate those injunctons Attention to the
diet decreases dyspepsia and kindred diseases with
their sequala moroseness, cursng, swearing, pauper
ism, insanity and crime
Thus it was that when the fearful plague Of the
fourteenth century, known as the Black Death,
swept across the world numbering it's victims by the
thousands that the Israete remained comparatively
untouched; thus verifying the words OF the Psalm:
!" The angels of the Lord encamp round about those
who fear him."
Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of the
night, nor of the whie h feth by day, nor OF
the pestlence, which stalketh in the midnight gloom.
Thou shalt only behold it with thine eyes and see the
reward of the wicked Because thou hast made the
Lord, who is my refuge even the Most High, thy
any plague approach thy dwelling. For he shall
give his angels charge concerning thee, to guard thee
in all thy ways. Psalm xci. oil. Those that
did cleave unto the Lord all alive this day. So
spake Moses, the man of God.
A fearful plague is prevailing India and judg-
ing by the experience of the past, it is apt to cut
wide swath through the ranks of civilization Why
not then heed the words of the Lord and of the Lords
ministers, the scientists? Obey the words Of Gods
Law and the kindred teachings of hygiene, and thus
put the houses of your souls in order? Heredty has
given the benefit of the caretaking lives of
thodox ancestors Their loyal obedience in the face
of powerful opposition has eventuated in our health
wealth and prosperity. Nor can gutlessly snap
the links of the chain that bind descendants to
ancestors, and with open eyes cut off those who
shall follow from the merces vouchsafed to the

In these days OF hygienic knowledge, when people

dietary laws has cause elcitate himself that he and
his family thoroughly protected from all lung

After thus inspecting the meat the chochet stamps
it at convenient intervals kosher and subscribes
