every other night just before you 60

indeed. just as hot as you can stand it.
After washing them in it and drying
them, you should then have prepared the
following solution: Red pepper, one
teaspo onful; common salt, one tea.
spoonful; strong vinegar one pint. Let
this simmer on the back of the stove
until it is reduced about one-half, sponge
the feet with it after bathing. them in
the hot water. Remember this should
always be done at night before retiring;
and you should wear cotton hose during
the winter as we'll as summer For
catarrh Of the nose you should practice
the exercise described In one of the club
books Of lectures and use the tissue salts

exercises described in the book will not

Jews? Certain clubs are averse to adj

there is not one in New York, no matter
how exclusive ii assumes TO be in that
matter, which has not members OF the
Jewish blood, and it is reasonable to sup

DR.. TsIpoB SINGER, in letter we print
to-day quotes from distinguished jew
ish rabbi Of Philadelphia some very in
cisive remarks pointing out that race
and religious prejudice is not all on one
side, but exists sharply among the Jews
themselves. On whichever side il is, the
feeling is unfortunate, and more espe-
cially in this republic. Lines Of race
division are contrary to the American
spirit and genius. and wherever they are
marked they are productive OF unhappy
animosties and competitions.
We will only add that OF the many let
ters we are receiving with regard to the
Jewish protest against the continuance
of the State Librarian in office the ma
ioritv are from Christians who display
bitterness of feeling against the Jews
which we are sorry to see aroused in a
community so largely Jewish as New
York is now, and preponderan,ly Semitic

To Destroy All Competition.

Mr.. RoosEvFLTs utterances on the
subject Of the Federal regulation OF rail-
road rates are, as usual, receiving wide
spread attention, but it must be con-
fessed that they no longer inspire grave
apprehension. This is due TO the TACT
that there has been time enough for a
good deal OF sober reflection upon the
subject out Of which has come a general
conviction that there will be no drastic
legislation o, h,bature wh Oh the Piesi-
dent has demanded.
Neither in Mr. RoosEvRLT's recon-
mendations nor in any of the actual
measures which have been proposed
has there been any recognition of the
fact that the ultimate and unavoidable
effect Of the Federal regulation of rail-
road charges was the extinction Of COM
petition. The public, however, has been
very generally aware OF this portentous
consequence and is unable TO regard it
seriously The fact cannot be disputed
that such Legislation would forever elm
mate all competition, including compe-
titicn between communities, and that,
naturally, IMPLIES a revolution in our
affairs too radical and overwhelming to
ne within the bounds Of reason or OF
common ense.
Tho Supreme Court dissolved the
Northern Securities corporation on the
ground that it interfered With oompeti-
lion or was tainted With a tendency TO
eliminate conn etition. 1t seems some

Eya Booth, Assuming tho schools Are Fun

Fyn Booth. the new commander OF the
Salvation Army in tho United States, has
been go impressed with the statement OF
Robert Hunter Of tho University Settle
nent that there are In New York 10000
children whom poverty oompe!s to 80 TO
school unied. that she has planned TO open
free soup kitchens in various parts ot town
TO relieve the supposed suffering.
Kitchens will be opened to-day az %
Cherry street. Carlisle street and 10 Fourth
avenue. Hot soup and q roll will be served
TO ali children who apply between and
o'clock In the morning. Tomorrow ktch-
ems will be opened at 1i4l Third avenue,
10 Chatham Square Lexington avenue ana
i25th street, Charles and Blocker streets
and 100 West Twenty-ninth street, and
the movement will be carried on, Miss
Booth says, until all the poor starving
little ones are supplied with breakfast
Miss Eva Booth came here on Dec. IL
70 take charge of the Salvation Army work,
but has spent much OF her time since In
cities in the Middle West. She confeeses
70 a total ignorance Of conditions in this city.
She wrote to City Superintendent Mlxwell
on the subject and received from him
guarded reply promising careful oon-
sideration for her free breakfast scheme
and saying that Mr.. Hunter had had I'M
usual opportunity for forming Judgment
on such a natter and would be more likely
TO underestimate than overesumAte the
number of hungry children.
Miss b 9th said yesterday that Whel,
various teachers in the poorer districts OF
the CITY were asked about the condition OF
the children in their schools they broke
down and cried while describing the wan,
pinohed faces and purple lips of the chill
dren Asked if she did not fear, that the
free soup would lead TO a kind OF breakfast
graft among people whose children were
not in need, she said:
Il am not familiar with conditions here,
but | believe in acting at once without
wasting time, and / believe that my dis
trict commanders will see that things go %
thew should ] could not bear TO think OF
little children going unfed, and so started
the work as soon as j heard OF what Mr.
Hunter had said
All who ask for food will receive 1t to-day.
The commander had no idea how many
would apply. She thought, however, that
all would be accommodated.
