hold good through all time:ds that the
aggressive which keeps at it always

space where Napoleon deployed a di.
vision. we deploy a battalion today.
The precision and power of modern
arms require this. With such immense
forces and presentday tactics. the line
of battle will practically cover the
length of the frontier. Along their
range the Browns have a series OF
fortresses commanding natural open
ings for our attack. These are almost
impregnable. But there are pregnabls
points between them. Here, our
method will be the same that the Jepar
nese followed and that they learned
from European armies. We shall con-
centrate in masses and throw in wave
after wave of attack until we have
gained the positions we desire. Once
we have a tenable foothold on the

must fall back and the rest will be a

pleasure of the sterner Roman moralists
anxious to curb the growing luxury and
extravaganza of the times. Laws were
made against the sale of odors, but in
vain; the use of them grew more general
and extravagant until even the battle hag
and standards were heavily scented be-
fore they were carried forth to face the
barbarians of the north. To such depths
had Caesars legions fallen!
In addition to the perfumes produced in
Italy and Greece others were brought
from the conquered countries of Egypt.
India and Arabia. From the lavish.
senseless profusion in the room and in
the bath more refined appreciation of
the use of odors grew up. There is much
literature of that time on the proper use
Of perfumes and their significance. Each
portion of the body had It's appropriate
perfume or oil; mint for the arms, ivy for
the knees and neck. marjoram and rose
for the hair and eyebrows and so on.
Rooms were perfumed to indicate their
character, rose for a lovers tryst, white
violets (supposed to have a beneficial
effect on the digestion) for banquet and
ounce for sleep.

Extravaganza Among the Greeks.

Extravaganza Among the Greeks.
Among the Greeks the art of the per-
fumer was carried TO point of extrava-
Eance and refinement, never eQualed be-
fore or since The manner of perfuming
an apartment before an entertainment
was given careful consideration as
were the costly viands and wines that
were to be served. Incense was burned,
the furniture sprinkled with sweet scent
ed waters, and perfumed fans fioated
above the heads of the guests. The fol-
lowing quotation from Greek poet who
hourished about $50 B. c. gives some idea
of the extravaganza Of this practice:
"-he let fly four doves, with unguents
drenched,
Not of one sort, but every bird a per-
fume bore
Peculiar and different from the rest:
And they hov'ring round us, from their
heavy wings
6howered their sweets upon our robes
and furniture"
II is not strange that under such condi-
tions moralists should have arisen to try
by precept and laws to stop this extrava-
gance.
Objection Of the Moraiists.
In Athens solon forbade the use of
perfumes. but laws preventing their i'm
portation were eva,led and dehed. The
stern and caustc Socrates disapproved OF
all artificial scents. "There is," he said.
'the same smell in q slave and 9 gentle
man when both are perfumed."
From Greece the use of perfumes was
quickly carried to Rome. much to the dis

Use of Perfumes In Religious cere
monies.

Both profane and sacred history prove
the use among the Hebrews of perfume
and incense for religious purposes and
embalming the dead but not for the
amounting OF the person, and the primitive
Christian adopted the same example. The
use of perfumes on the body became re-
garded az a sinful Indulgence and incen-
tive to evil doing, while the use of in
cense in the churches became moro, and
more esteemed, and in the Catholic church
this use has continued down to modern
times. Perfumes are used in the church
service in the form OF incense and mixed
with the oil and wax to be burned in
lamps and for candles.
Incense is made OF powdered sandal
wood. little gum and a combination of
sweet smelling spices, and during the
church service is burned in the censor,
