Even the dead were ut _orgotten, for the embalmed mununy was saturated with spices and scents, and sweet per- fumes were burned before their stat- ues. Those who ccuid not afford this had scent bottles painted on their tombs, Most of the perfumes were thought by the ancients to have a medicinal value. Thyme was thought to have a tonic quality and lavender a soothing one, Patchouli was cheering, jasmine stimulating, while heliotrope was irri- tating unless used in small quantities. Some people today believe that sandal is a tonic, and its virtue was known to the Greeks, who anointed themselves with it when they entered the Olym- pian games. | The Jews excelled all in their love of | perfumes, for night and morning they | burnt sweet incense of myrrh, and | their beds were perfumed with aloes - | and cinnamon. So indispensable were | scents considered for the bridal tollet ' that one-twelfth of the dowry was set . apart for the purpose. The trade in | perfumes was enormous in Greece, Like the Egyptians, they understood the fascinations of flowers, and an Athenian not only perfumed his house, but scented his drinking vessels with | myrrh. the gum, of a tree which grows miss it. A I 5 EE AR EL BRE AIRE m araoia. To such an extent was the love of perfumes carried that each part of the body had its special per- fume, The hair required wild thyme, the neck and knees sweet marjoram, the cheek and the breast palm oil, the feet and legs sweet ointment. The perfumers’ shops in ancient Athens were the rendezvouses for the beaus to discnss politics and Intrigue. The love of perfumery spread to the Romans, and the business became so great that a bunch of sage denoted their shops.

In the time of Elizabeth perfumes were very rich and numerous. Civet, a scent taken from the civet cat, and musk are often mentioned in the liter- ature of that. time. Perfumed gloves were in vogue then, and the queen had her portrait scented with them. Even her shoes were made of leather steeped in scented oils, which permeated the skin, ———————————————- Charles V. and the Cobbler, A pieasant story is told of the Emper- or Charles V. One night he strolled in- to a cobbler’s shop to get his boot mend- ed. It happened to be the festival of St. Crispin. The cobbler was making merry with his friends and declared that no work could be done on that day for any man, even though he were Charles himself, but the stranger was cordially invited to join in the merry- making. He did as he was bidden. “Here's to the health of Charles V.,” sald the cobbler. “Do you love him?” asked the emperor. “Love him?” said the cobbler. “I do. I love his long noseship well enough, but I should love him more if he taxed us iess.,” They finished St. Crispin’s day very pleas- antly. Upon the morrow the emperor sent for the cobbler to the palace and great- ly surprised him by thanking him for his hospitality of the previous evening, asking him what reward he would like best, The amazed cobbler asked for & night to think of it. The next day he appeared before the emperor and re- quested that the cobblers of Flanders might bear for their coat of arms a boot with a crown upon it. Honey as a Food, Honey is one of the most nutritious of foods. “A land flowing with milk and honey” meant a great deal to the weary travelers in the desert. Give the children all the bread and butter and honey that they will eat once a day, aud they will never get sick and sur- feited from too much sweet, as they would if they ate the same amount of jam. Strained honey with one-fourth lemon juice taken in teaspoonfu! doses every hour is a splendid remedy for a cold, cough or any throat trouble. Tak- en in hot milk it is said to be an inval- uable aid in pulmonary troubles, ~—Subscribe for the WATCHMAN. There are MANAGING HUSBANDS. Some Eighteenth Century Ideas on This Interesting Subject. Most quaint is some of the advice to women contained in an old book pub- lished in 1737. The volume describes itself as “an infallible Guide to the Fair Sex, containing Rules, Directions, end Observations for their Conduct and Behaviour through all Ages and Cir- cumstances of life; as Virgins, Wives, or Widews, with Directions how to ob- fain all Useful and Fashionable Ac- fomplishments suitable to the Sex.” If the lady's husband was cholerie she wos told how to secure her own way by dexterously “yielding everything till he begins to cool, and then by slow | degrees she may rise and gain upon {the Man,” or “when other Remedies | are too weak, a little Flattery may be | admitted, which, by being necessary, i will cease to be criminal” With a | covetous husband, pride, ambition, | vanity, anger, kindness or even a dose {of wine may be expected “to open or | enlarge his narrow Mind.” “The wife's ‘ business must be to watch for critical moments, and not let one of them slip without making her advantage of it.” And a wife may be said “to. want skill if by these means she is not able to se- cure herself in Good Measure against the inconveniences this scurvy Quality in her husband might bring upon her.” All the frailties of poor, erring hus- bands are here set forth, singly, in plain, unmistakable language, neatly docketed, each with the recipe for cure appended thereto. There are other interesting passages in the same book. Of spinsters the au- thor says: “An old maid is now thought such a curse as no poetic fury ean ex- ceed, looked on as the most calamitous creature in nature. Modesty and Obe- dience, though necessary to all, are yet in a more eminent degree required here. Their Look, their Speech, their whole Behaviour should own a hum- ble distrust of themselves.” Concern- ing amusements this: “The reading of Romances seems now to be thought the young Ladies, we wish they were always in their event as harmless,” Of another vanity: “There is also an- other great devourer of Time—we mean Dressing. Sure 'tis allowable upon a soberer account that those who design Marriage should give themselves the advantage of decent O ents and not by the negligent Rud of their Dress bely Nature and render them- selves less amiable than she has made them. But, all this being granted, ‘twill by no means justify that exces- give Curiosity and Solicitude, that Ex- pense of Time and Money, too, which is more used.” ACS EE ——— ~——Theie always isa sense of satisfac. tion in hearing abused those one dislikes.
