Can't make out any of the other letters but IHS could be the Christogram based on the first three letters of "Jesus" in Greek (ΊησοÏ.Ï‚, Latinized IHSOVS)- (info from wikipedia).
Could have been used to hold the Host (Body of Christ) in a Catholic Mass? As far as I'm aware (and I could be way off the mark) at that time only the priest ate the Host. Although I was taught by Jesuits religious studies were never my strong point.
