those days regarded cold water and

Cleanliness was net Olly looked upOE

Of the body became so much a virtue
that bath was only allowed in cases
Of illness. At any rate. water had no

narque. His valet after pouring flask
containing spirits Of wine over the
hands of his majesty passed a comb
through his hair, thus completing his
toilet for the day.
In the seventeenth century. however.
cleanliness was carried to such an ex.
cess that an English danny was ex-
pected to wash his face nearly every
day." So rapidly did the custom spread
that it was necessary to issue a solemn

Another noteworthy fact on the eti-

thing was to scratch softly with the
