start of advertisement companies dictating the nation\u2019s expectations of personal hygiene and presentability. The goal was to sell new manufactured products to the middle class. Ads for products like razors pushed beard trends while lady\u2019s magazines pushed styles for women. Each family typically had one wash bin for bathing and would only use it once or twice a week. Each member of the family would use the same water only pouring more in if it got too cold. It was not uncommon for people of the 19th century to wear the same clothes daily. Women usually had a dress for inside the house and a dress for working outside.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-69a5dde elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"69a5dde\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fashion &amp; Beauty This brass and mother of pearl watch stand (HF.11.60) was used on a nightstand to place watches in at night.
