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

' that one-twelfth of the dowry was set
. apart for the purpose. The trade in

Like the Egyptians, they understood

The perfumers’ shops in ancient

Nero had a rare device of ivory leaves
which shed sweet scents over his

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

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,

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.”

A Curious Oath,
The following curious oath was until
recent years administered in the courts
of the Isle of Man: “By this book, and
by the holy contents thereof, and by
the wonderful works that God has mi-
raculously wrought in heaven above
and in the earth beneath in six days
and seven nights, I do swear that I
will, without respect of favor ar friend-
ship, love or gain, consanguinity or af-
finity, envy or malice, execute the laws
of this isle and between party and par-
ty as indifferently as the herring's
backbone doth lie in the middle of the
fish.”
The Bright Spots.
No man knows his strength or his
weakness till occasion proves them, If
there be some thoughts and actions of
his life from the memory of which a
man shrinks with shame, surely there
are some which he may be proud to
own and remember—forgiven injuries,
conquered temptations (now and then)
and difficulties vanquished by endur-
