The Habits of Good Society: a Handbook of Etiquette for Ladies and Gentlemen, 1859
The Wheelwoman, London, December 24, 1898
And yet we are driven to the appalling conclusion that for every 100 people who are to be seen hurrying along the street to business in the morning, probably only one, or at the most two, have upon rising washed any other part of their bodies than their faces.

A Kitty Cat is scared you see,
Of soap and water; naturally
She’s not at all a pretty sight
With hands and features far from white!
YOUR face is clean, I’ve noticed, very!
YOU
wash it
when it’s necessary.
