alabaster of precious ointment like that
with which Mary anointed Christ, which the
Saviour said was against the day OF MS
burial In the time Of Queen Elizabeth per-
fumes were given in elegant boxes 10 SINH
lar manner.
Ire use of odors and perfumed cosmetics
was even more common IN ancient rome
They were universally used by ladies In the
toilet and by men in the bath. Their com
position is learned from Latin writers. The
instruments considerable essential to ladys
toilet have been found at Pompeii. The
Roman beauty resting at midday, her pastes
and pomades, fabricated according to an
infnity of recipes, were applied to her race
and arms She washed her hands with
soap coming from Gaul, made of goats fat
and ashes of the beechwood, perfumed with
cinnamon and spikenard from Persia. The
signs of fever ara removed from her tongue
with a strigil, such as can be seen at the
museum at Naples. Her teeth were brushed
and her mouth rinsed with water of Comus
and Niceras. Then came the pedicure and
those persons whose business it was to re-
move superfluous hair, after which she had
her hair and eyebrows dyed and arranged,
her complexion made to assume the fashion,
able tint. and with the necessary ADJUST
ment Of her apparel she was ready TO 60
abroad, conquering and to conquer. 1t Is
curious to remark that the fashionable color
of the hair in ancient Rome was yellow,
though black remained the hue of respect
ability The famous Messalina, instead of
dyeing her locks, which were of a raven
blackness, covered them with yellow wig
when she went into the puOlic places to cap
ture the Roman nobility. Bears grease,
still popular, is said to have entered into the
composition of famous pomade used by
Cleopatra. Bean -four, still common in
France, was employed for the same purpose.
Qnince juice gave pink tinge to the fingers.
Juice of cypress, myrtle, the boiled peel of
leeks and other substances changed the color
of the hair.
The use of perfumes and cosmetics was
transmitted from France to England and
became excessive during the reign of Queen
Elizabeth. 1t is theme for the satire of
Shakespeare. Uuder the luxurious reign of
Charles ii. they were in almost as universal
use as in ancient Greece and Rome. Later
they fell into disfavor, and so late as ITO a
law was passed by the English Parliament
making it grave offense for a woman of
whatever age, condition or profession to
seduce or draw into marriage any one of
his Majestys subjects by the use of per
fume, false hair, Spanish crepe impregnated
with car-mine, steel stays, shoes with high
heels or false haunches-probably meaning
buStleS.

police station promises to become white

right but it was not finished according to

THE TRAMP QUESTION.
Considerable interest still centres in the
tramp question, and this morning the court
room was crowded to its utmost capacity.
Judge Jones seemed to have taken merci-
full view of the case and calling up the
tramps on trial before him, some ten in
number, inquired regarding the individual
cases, and then, on their promising to leave
the county, released them. They made
lively steps for the door, and will hardly
stop till they place the limits of Duval
county behind them. The Judge holds the
whipping post for the next batch of that
gentry.

Their Convention Favors Calling an

SANFORD, FLA, Jan. 5.-The convention
Of Florida's Mayors adjourned sine die at
noon to-day. Previous to the adjournment,
however, they passed resolutions, the sub
stance of which were that by an efficient
State Board of Health and an effective quar-
antine by the United States government
the introduction and prevalence of yellow
fever and other infectious or contagious
diseases can be prevented, and that the con-
vention respectfully but firmly requests that
the Governor convene the Legislature in

Board of Health and that the
Senators and Representatives in
the national Congress be requested
to secure such action in Congress as is
necessary TO establish and maintain quar-
antine station at some suitable point on the
Gulf coast of the State of Florida, and that

to the State the protection needed. Several
other unimportant resolutions, having no
particularly bearing on the main issue were
adopted. The convention was probably
