Cardinal Gibbons has issued the fol-
lowing regulations for Lent in this
archdiocese: Ash Wednesday, the first
day Of Lent, falls on the % day of Feb
ruary.
All the faithful who have completed
their 2lst year, unless cxempted ly
dispensatiOu or some other legitimate
cause. are bound to observe the fast of
Lent. They are to make but one meal
day, except on Sundays. The meal
permitted on fast days is rot to be
taken till about noon. A small refresh
ment, commonly ca led collation., is per-
mitted in the evening.
The. following persons are exempt
from the obligation of fasting: Persons
under 2l years of ag+, the sick, Dur.ilg
women, who are obliged to 40 hard Ia
bor, and those who, through weakness,
cannot fast without great prejudice to
their health.
The faithful are reminded that, be-
sides the obligation OF fasting imposed
by the church, this holy session OF Lent
should be, in an essential manner,
time OF earnest prayer, of sorrow for
sin, of seclusion from the world and its
amusements, and Of general aims Civ
ing.
By virtue of an indult to the United
States, dated August 4th, 1887, the fol-
lowing special dispensaiions are grant
eG.
The use of flesh meat is permitted at
all meals on Sundays, and once day
on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays,
with the exception OF the second and
last Saturdays of Lent. But fash meat
snd fish are not to be used at the same
meal during Lent, even on Sundays.
The use of butter, cheese, milk and eggs
is also permitted every day in Lent.
1t is allowed to take in the morning
some warm liquid, as tea, coffee, or thin
chocolate, made with water, and with
this liquid mouthful of bread
Those for whom the hour of noon
may be an inconvenient time for dinner
may invert the order and take their
collation. in the morning and their din
uer in the evening.
The Use of hogs lard, or dripping, in
stead of butter, is authorized in prepar
ing permitted food.
Persons exempt from the obligation
of fasting ore free te take meat more
than orce OIL those days when its use is
granted by dispensation.
The paschal time extends from the
ftst Sunday in Lent till Trinity Sun
day, during which time all Catholics
who have attained the proper age are
bound to receive worthily the holy
communion. The holy season of Lent
is very proper time also for children
10 make their first confession, which
they ought to do generally about the
age of seven years. Pareuts should see
to this.

The savage is not known for his polish
of manners. The distinguishing charac-
teristic of civilization consists OF a certain
degree of civilty and good manners. The
French nation stands prominent for the
courtesy of its people There is no reason
why all christian people should not, in
their intercourse, begoverned by a proper
regard for the rights and convenience of
each other. In towns and crowded cities,
where often the sidewalks are thronged
with pedestrians going to and fro, bear
ing TO the right, giving way to the cur
rent going in the opposite direction, like
oil to machinery it facilitates the inter
course of the people. All have an equal
right to the sidewalk. No gang or party,
aligned abreast, have a right to monopo-
lie the pavement. No one, however high
in the social scale, should feel h,1nf,led nv
bearIng to the right or facilitating the pas
sage of the pedestrian, nor should anv-
one be governed by prejudice or envy or
upon the principle or feeling that am nc
good as you, and assume a hostile and
unaccommodating bearing. Persons Will,
proper views and kind regards for their
fellowmen have no collisions and obstruct
no one. 1t is all well when every one is
aiming 10 get out OF each other way, and
no matter how great the throng, the OPP
posing currents move along without jost-
ling, and enjoy the benefits of the side
walk to the fullest practicable extent. It
IS the interest of any town to treat stran-
gers justly. fairly and civilly, forit makes
the town popular and attractive, and
tends to promote its general welfare AS
to the behavior Of the citizens of Charles
Town,al that should be necessary to sug-
EeStls to not stand on the gutter bridges,
don't block up the sidewalks turn to the
rlsnt when you meet one, and don't
smoke inthe lobby of the postoffice.
