USE OF THE TOOTHBRUSH.
It Was Unknown In England In LORD
Chesterfeld's Time.


when did the English first adopt the
toothbrush habit, which in recent
times has been denounced by certain
medical authorities? In "Esmond''
Thackeray makes Lord Castlewood
spend "a tenth part Of his day In the
brushing of his teeth and the oiling of
his hair,'' and in doing so the novelist
commits a double anachronism.
During the first half Of the eighteenth
century all fine gentlemen wore wigs
and had no use for oil on their hair,
while the toothbrush was so late as

do insist upon your never using those
