struction of drains and sewers, 1t has
hecome obvious to all rejecting men
that these were necessary to the pres
eryation of health, not only in towns
but Isolated houses. Then followed the
lighting of public thoroughfares. AT
first houses fronting the streets were
compelled to have candles or lamps in
their windows. Next the system that
had bean followed with so rouch ad-
vautape i'm Cordoya and Greuada-of
having nublic lamps-was tried. but
this was not brought to perfection un-
tiI thc present century. when lighting
by gas was invented.

would have been dingy with SCOT and

mented frescoes. Baths were more
commonly resorted to; and there was
less need to use perfumery for the con
reaIment of personal odors,
