Natures mandate to man is |'be clean," and she has her own way of punishing disobedience. Just now she is paying to Rus sia the wages of the racial sin of uncleanness. Asiatic cholera, generated by filth, is scourging the land; the dead lie unburied in St. Petersburg, and the squal- i'd, semi-savage people, instead of cleaning themselves and their city, are getting drunk. The Russians regard the plague as a visitation of God, an eXpres- sion of Divine displeasure. And so it is. The market places of Russian cities are described as places of unspeakable filth, and ilthiness is abhorred by Nature, God or whatever one pleaseS to term the governing force of the universe.

It would be unhealthy for the town that failed to "resolute" when told to do so.
