Cosmetics.
The ancients had an astonishing num-
Der of oils, soaps and perfumes. The
Romans made large use of smegma, a
washball, for cleaning the skin in bath
ing. After taking warm vapor bath,
their bodies were anointed with per-
fumed oil Cosmetics were in as large
demand among the women of ancient
Rome AS they are ut the present day,
aud every imaginable device was had
recourse to by them for correcting i'm
perfections in the color of their skin,
hair, eyebrows, &c. Among these the
peeling of the pear, when boiled, had
the credit of imparting TO the hair a
black color.
Bears grease. So much III rage Il few
wears ago in England and in this coun-
try, and still not out of use, was Landed
for its reputed property of making the
hair grow ont from baldS. Light hair
WAS procured by applying the lees of
vinegar and oil of lentiscus, and black
was made white by another working
substance. Then there were means I'M
provised to make the hair crisp and to
curl il.
Ovid says that women dyed their gray
locks with the juice of herbs from Ger
many. and that art gives them more
dazzling color than natural. Propertius
accuses his mistress OF an excessive use
of pomatum. Foolish attempts to
change the color of the hair were then,
as they are now. often punished by its
loss. Ovid tells of young person
whose hair fell ont when endeavoring
to change its chestnut color to that of
black. The eyebrows were dyed black
by the eggs OF ants and flies. A more
practical plan was to straighten the
hair and dye them with needle black
cned in smoke. False hair was sued by
the Roman woman. Martial ridicules
one of the sex, who, in Icr agitation at
visit from her lover, put her false hair
upside down. A similar deception was
practised in having artificial eyelids.
The preparations intended to preserve
the complexion fresh and the skin soft
were very numerous i'll ancient Rome.
The Empress Hoppea, in her journey,
always had with her number OF asses,
the milk of which she used as a bath.
The froth of fermented liquors was used
for this object. The soap most in re-
quest came from Gaul. France, and was
of two kinds. the soft and the liqnid.
1t was made with goats fat, and the
ashes of the beech. Wrinkles of the
skin were said to be removed by the
meal of beans. This was also sometimes
added to the water for the bath. The
Roman satirical poets were very severe
: in their ridicule of those women who
daubed their faces with pomades, white
lead, or chalk.
Modern chemistry has furnished me-
talc preparations. which have been Sc
: misapplicd rs to be made to enter into
the composition of various cosmetics
The effects OF using them, such as those
into which lead bismuth, mercury, ol
arsenic enter, are most pernicious, Otter
damaging the health and sometime:
causing death itself. After all, the
hest cosmetics are regular ablution, ant
the use of the bath, temperance in it:
largest Specification, and free exercise
in the open air, backed by good temper
and cheerfulness. Nothing is so injuri
ons to the skin as bad temper.

Race Besween a L locomotive and n
Prairie Fire.

Race Between a L locomotive and q
Prairie Fire.
George w. Bungay, who recently wit
nessed a prairie fire, writing to the De-
troit Advertiser and Tribune, says of it:
About seven o'clock atnight / took pass
age on the Dixon Air Line railroad. The
train had proceeded but few miles
from the city of Chicago when we over
took a fire on the prairie. 1t was bit
ter night; the wind was blowing hard,
and the snow was falling, but the tall,
stiff, dry grass of the prairie stood high
above the thin sheet of snow on the
ground, and the flames spread with
great rapidity. There was broad mar
gin between our track and the river of
fire that swept before the wind. The
line of fame was about half mile in
length, and now and then it made such
rapid progress it seemed to keep pace
with the train. 1t was picturesque
and grand race between the fire steeds
of the prairie and the iron horse. The
former had no delays TO make ct stations,
side tracks and crossings, the latter had
the advantage of human brains to do its
thinking and pilot it. On, they sped,
through the thick and stormy night.
One cracking and whispering in the
wind, soaring and driving away every
living thing in its path, the other neigh
ing aud pressing forward with tread
which shook the ground and made the
light in the nearest window culver like
aspen leaves. One fiared its banner of
flame in the sky and tossed its torches
upon the crisp air, giving a warning OF
approaching danger and light in which
to escape to some safe retreat, the other
with its name of smoke and breath OF
sparks, and its eye in its forehead, dash
ed along in a ''meteoric shower" OF
sparks. It was ''poetry in motion
lingins with the rythm of progress,
whose sound is music married to the
couplet of iron, i'll the iron epic of an
advancing age. Our locomotive gained
the race at last, and we left the fiery
cavalry in the distance, fighting with
the wind aud the snow, and leapinS
over the creeks and ponds in its course
making bonfres of the lone haystack ks
that stood, like Lots wife, within the
reach of its innumerable SPEARS of flame.
Before it was borne crimson flag that
lit up the heavens; behind it was a
charred and blackened wake of cinders.
Whether it swept away any human hab-
itations in its path, i cannot say-jut 1t
was most attractive sight, and so full
of suggestion l have been tempted to
give brief account of it.
