It is. moreover. equally valuable and essary in the preparation and preservation foods and drivks for the sick and well. It has, in fact, become an indispensable necessity in the mof person, health, food drinks and sickness. In its multitudinous utiljties and ready and convenient appiieation it has become so widely and familiarly known that even a par- tial deprivation might become a calamity. AN ICE Ma!

When—we hope in the near future— every dwelling may be supplied with » hygienic ice-producing appliance we may bid dedance to ice Company combinations and ttle at the outset every arbitrary regulation aud method to restrai: suspend this form of sanitation of foods, drinks and sickness, - “Two deliveries or the celivery of two days’ ordinary supply.on one day will not fulfill the Fequirements of the dey foliowing, because of ‘the increased loss by meltage and the lack of arrangements in most dwellings for the keep- ing of a double quantity, which necessarily in. ereases the expense to the consumer. stated by Mr. E.

How much the amount of saving from this source may be rbations “the custois. b: augmented by the Sunday rest and deduction | of wages, if any, of the employes this com- mittee has no means of ascertaining. DISEASE DOES SOT RESPECT SUNDAY. “The Sabbath day presents no conditions which exempt human beings from sickness. Disease has no respect for days of the week. Neither fever, nor pain, nor suffering of any kind, description, variety or grade ceases or intermits on Sunday to again renew itself on Monday. Babies are born, get sick and die, emergencies arise, accidents happen and any and all the phenomena ef disease may occur with equal intensity and suddenness on Sundays as on week days. Foods, drinks, beverages, | medicamenis, medicines, physicians and nurses areas much needed on this as on any other day. Physicians do not clann rest because of six days’ continuous work and lose of many hours of sleep; nurses who have been impris- ‘oned in the chambers of the victims of malig- nant diseases do not run away from their duty on Sunday; the drug clerk is behind the counter all day Sunday; the milkman continues his Sunday delivery, and the girl at the mineral water fountain drags out her monotonous life through the long summer Sundays. Why, ‘then, should this one article, so useful to the} sick in such a variety of ways, effective both as nd as a remedy im disease, and so the proper preparation and preser- vation of other useful and needed articles, denied to them on the Sabbath day? In view of the fact that the family is usually more con- tinuously at home on Sundays than during week days it would.seem that the Sunday de- Every is even moreimportant than those on week days. 4 SECOND SATURDAY DELIVERY. “Communications received by members of the committee invite attention to two additional considerations, to wit: Thats second delivery on Saturday afternoon imposes as much or amore additional labor upon the employes as a Sunday <ielivery. because of the lateness of the which it ean be eom- pleted, sometimes not before 1 o'clock Sunday Morning, and that very many of the poorer and Working classes take ice only on Sunday. be- carse it is the only day caring which the family is together and at home cases of sudden illness occurring im such families it 1s im- = to obtain ice, except frum the Sunday ery wagons. “The ec ful illustration of the aphorism that ‘man s in- Bumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn; but there ix another side to this melan- eboly pictare. buman beart have never yet failed of response to the necemities of the sick and suffering.
