Many transcendentallv fastdious people en-.
terrain the idea that II is the Ultima thule Of
vulgarity to have the faintest breath of per.
iumery about the person, and again there arc
other equally misguided individuals who rush
TO the other extreme and appear TO think they
cannot use too much. celebrated French
author, gentleman Of refined taste and high
est culture, declares that he distrusts the man
or woman who denounces the use Of perfumes.
A child or o ccntenariau, an earnest student,
an austere scientific dignitary, or an uncul-
tured house-nhid may be excused II they en-
terrain no prediction for perfumes, and can
scarcely tell an agreeable odor from bad one
but lady-young, gay, romantic, imagina-
tive-cannot forcgo the luxury, the poetry of
perfume. Fashion has had many caprices in
this matter. In Paul de Rocks day
PEPPERMINT
was all the rage" cakes, creams Of candies
were favored with It, and aromatic dilutions
were made Of 1t; ladies carried it ia their
scent bottles and bon-bon boxes In divers and
sundry forms, and no one was considered
thoroughly du fat in the clegsnces of society
without il.
Then came the turn of aromatic vinegar,
speedily followed by lavender water, eau de
cologne, rose water, patchonly. But fashion
is always rushing to ono end of the scale or
the other. After the rise comes the fall after
the excess the reaction, and since the extreme
tiCc Of using them IT all has greatly subsidized.
Once one could scarcely enter a church with
out being almost stined by fumes Of musk or
macassar; cycrybodys locks were redoent of
bcrsamot or cocaine, their hands OF Lubin's
toilet soaps, aud their haukerchefs with
odors stunning, ndescribable. Nowadays few
ladies positively put liquid scent upon their
garments-they prefer, instead TO Keep their
wardrObes well stocked well with lavender.
orrs root, sandal wood, or little bags filled
with scent powder of divers sorts, 50 that their
clothes emit pleasant fragrance rather
than distinct odor. A fRstidous lady of
my acquaintance KEEPS her trunks boxes
and bureaus strewn with satchets OF strong
smelling violet powder, so5 that every
thing she wears, from veil to shoes from
hat to handkerchief, cmits namglcss
delicate perfume as Of irosh wOod-violcts. For
this mode of using perfume nothing can be
better than lavender, which has an exquisite
natural scent that art can never Guido.
fashion writer tells us how tho young LloOds
Of Paris have sturdy branches of lavcudor sus-
pended to each of the pegs in their wardrobcs
and dressing rooms, that their garments may
be always perlumcd; yet people prate about
the cxtravagant coquetry of women, just as IL
the hanging of masculine coats over lavender
boughs did not equal any Of our little de-
vices
