Makar Тарасыч waved a broom

We find interesting line of the bath at many well-known writers.

«Hey, you figure! - cried the fat, белотелый Lord, seeing in the fog tall and skinny man with a beard and with a large copper cross on his chest. - Поддай couple!

I, your honor, not банщик, and the Barber. It's not my business a couple of поддавать. Would you кровососные jars place?»

So begins the story And. P. Chekhov «In the bath», first published in 1885, in the magazine «Fragments». Later the writer had put the story in the collection of works. In this юмореске is the character of Nicodemus Егорыч Потычкин. And Потычкин ascends in the steam room at the top shelf: «Nicodemus Егорыч was a goal, like every naked man, but at the top of his bald head was a cap».

A curious detail. Today's lovers of steam, as it is known, wearing a ski cap or old felt hat. And this is, so to say, a scientific rationale: to avoid a rush of blood to the head.

Someone suggests that its written in the XII century Eupraxia was the granddaughter of the Kyiv Prince Vladimir Monomakh. Even as a child Eupraxia showed great interest in folk medicine, collecting herbs and healed the sick, for which its people have nicknamed Добродеей. The fate of the Evpraksia has developed so, that she was obliged to marry the Byzantine Tsarevich Alexis Comnenus and here, in Jerusalem, was given a new name - Zoe Princess still fond of medicine, studied the works of Hippocrates and Galen, wrote his wonderful лечебник, which is highly appreciated modern her doctors. In the «Salve» a lot of interesting things about the treatment of «external and internal diseases». It is curious, that the wounds were asked to treat «leaven», in which, as determined by the current medicine, included vitamins.
