ABSTINENCE OF ROMAN WoNrS.-
The ancient Romans, in some respects.
were in advance of the present AGE in
their practical physiological knowledge.
They seemed tc be fully aware of the
fact that Il hardy race must bc born OF
healtiItul mothers. and consequently any
usage or practice likely to affect iniuri-
ousIy the health OF women was viewed
10y The state with suspicion The mus
clcS were Systematically educated. Ere
quent bathing was required by law.
Large bath houses were established.
which were places of common resort.
For several centuries of the best ages OF
Rome 1t was a criminal offence for q
Roman mother to drink intoxicating
liquors. AT the time of the labors OF
our Savior on earth, and for long time
after, it was considered infamous for a
Roman mother 10 taste of wine. For a
guest to offer glass of wine to one OF
the women of the household was looked
upon as a deep insult, as it implied a
want OF chastity on her part. History
records several Instances where women
were put TO death by their husbands be-
cause they smelt of .'temetum. The
consequence OF this physical training and
abstinence from all Intoxicating liquor
was that the Romans were noted for
their endurance and strength. Had we
the same habits, with our superior
Christian civilization, we should aston
ish the world by our physical health and
strength.
