Toilets of Ana'quity.

Certain priced records have come
down to us descriptive of the toilet of
matrons in antiquity. One Of these
chronicles is entitled, Employment of
Sabine Lady's Morning" 1t is won
deriJl production, introducing us to
every accessory of female attire, and
teaching the way they were put on be-
fore the time when those full-fgured
Sabines were so roughly handled by
Roman warriors. The writer leads the
reader to the lady's bedside and through
her earliest ablutions to the completion
of her toilet, fact or finale she an
uounced by splitting on mirror which
one of her attendants handed to he.
The ceremonial observed for the adorn-
ment of a Roman patrician was no less
minute than the care lavished on her
person in order to enhance beauty with
regard to form and color. The extreme
simplicity of the Roman and Greek cos
tune dispensed with recherche otherwise
than in the matter of headdress and
graceful draping, but the establishment
of the human Iace has'always charmed
the female mind. In countries where
dress styles had permanent cut, women
were. well versed III the elaboration of
cosmetics, and directed to the preserva-
ton of their Skins the arts now resorted
to, mostly, for fascination by means of
dress. No wonder that whole morn
ing was devoted to toilet. Ladies who,
in our days, uphold the uniformity of
costume in antiquity should consider
what a loss of time permanent cuts will
cause, and no longer maintain that the
women of Rome or Greece were wiser
than ourselves. Many who are weary
of the whims of La Mode are not only
urging reputed fashion writers to advo-
cate return to the peplum, ETC., but
are suggesting that literary ladies are
the proper persons to set this example
by adopting the antique costume them
