ALIMENTARII PUERI, &c. in Roman antiquity, were certain children maintained and educated by the munificence of the emperors, in public places, not unlike our hospitals. Trajan was the first that brought up any of these alimentary boys. He was imitated by Adrian. Antoninus Pius did the same for a number of maids, at the solicitation of Faustina, and hence, in some medals of that empress, we read Pvellae Favstinianae. Alexander Severus followed his example, at the request of Mammea; and the maids thus educated were called Mammæanæ.

ALIMENTARY DUCT, or CANAL, ductus alimentalis, is that part of the body through which the food passes, from its reception into the mouth, to its exit at the anus; including the gula, stomach, and intestines. The whole ductus alimentalis may be divided into four parts. 1. That which conveys the food, called the esophagus. 2. That which digests, or corrodes it, called the stomach. 3. That which distributes the chyle, called the intestines. 4. That which discharges the fæces, called the rectum. This duct is said to be the true characteristic of an animal, there being no animal without it, and whatever has it, being properly ranged under the class of animals. Plants receive their nourishment by the numerous fibres of their roots, but have no common receptacle for digesting the food received, or for carrying off the recrements. But in all, even the lowest degree of animal life, we may observe a stomacn and intestines, even where we cannot perceive the least formation of any organs of the senses, except the common one of feeling, as in

oysters.

ALIMENTARY LAW, was an old law among the Romans, whereby children were obliged to find sustenance for their parents.

ALIMONY, ALIMONIA, in law, denotes that portion, or allowance, which a married woman sues for, upon any occasional separation from her husband, wherein she is not charged with elopement or adultery. It was anciently called rationabile estoverium, reasonable maintenance, and recoverable only in the spiritual court; but now it is recoverable also in chancery. When a woman is divorced à mensâ et thoro, she may sue her husband in her own name for alimony, or maintenance, out of her husband's estate, during the separation, either in chancery, or in the spiritual court.

ALIMOS, in botany, a name given by Greek writers to liquorice, from its quality of making the appetite insensible either to hunger or thirst. ALINDA, Αλινδα, in ancient geography, a town of Caria, whose queen, Ada, adopted Alexander the Great as her son. A medal of this town represents a club, with a lion's skin, and within which, a crown of laurel, emblematical of Hercules; the inscription is ΑΛΙΝΔΕΩΝ.

ALINDESIS, or ALINDES, in the ancient gymnastic medicine, a kind of exercise, wherein persons being besmeared with oil, roll themselves naked in the dust.

ALINGSAS, or ALINGSAHS, an inland town of Sweden, in the province of Elsborg, where there are silk, woollen, tobacco, and pipe manufacturies. Lon. 12°. 20'. E. lat. 50°. 30′. Ν.

ALIO DIE, in mythology, the formula used by

the Augur when on religious grounds she dis solved the comitia or assemblies of the people, • Quid gravius quàm rem susceptam dirimi, s. unus augur alio die dixerit.' Cic. de Leg.

ALIPÆNOS, or ALIPANTOS, from αλιπαινος, a negative, and λιπαινεν, to fatten, in the ancient physic, an appellation given to dry topical medicines, or such as have no fat mixed with them. It stands opposed to lipara, or plasters, which have fat in their composition; called also by Celsus, lenia. Galen gives the name αλιπη to the remedies which are applied to fresh wounds, in order to check the inflammation, and hasten their healing.

ALIPASMA, in ancient medicine, an oint. ment applied to the body to prevent perspiration.

ALIPEE, a town of Cochin, in Hindostan, belonging to the rajah of Travancore. It is situated on a river communicating with that of Quilon, and is very populous, many merchants residing here who act as agents for houses at Bombay. Pepper, grain, and timber, are the chief exports. Lat. 9°. 42′. N.

ALIPILARIUS, or ALIPILUS, in antiquity, an officer belonging to the baths, who, by means of waxen plasters, took off the hairs from the alæ, or arm-pits. The alipilus answered to what the Greeks called δρωπακισης. The ancient Romans made it a point of cleanliness to keep the armpits clear and smooth; and in after times went farther, and took off the hair from their arms, legs, and other parts, with pitch, rosin, and the volsella, an instrument for that purpose.

ALIPIUS, bishop of Tagaste, in Africa, the countryman and intimate friend of St. Augustine, and, like him, at one time, a zealous Manichee. He accompanied him to Rome, where he studied law, and had some considerable employments. He embraced the Christian religion, and was baptized by St. Ambrose the same day with his friend Augustine. He afterwards went to Palestine, where he became intimate with St. Jerome. On his return to Africa, in 394, he was chosen bishop of Tagaste. He assisted at several councils, particularly that of Carthage, where he shewed his zeal against the Donatists, and died in 430.

ALIPIUS, in ancient history, a geographer of Antioch, and made governor of Britain, by the emperor Julian, to whom he dedicated a work on geography. He was afterwards exiled for following magical divinations.

ALIPOW, Montis Ceti, a kind of white turbith. It is found in several parts of Languedoc, particularly near Cete, whence its name of Montis Ceti. It is sometimes used instead of senna; but is a much stronger cathartic.

ALIPTA, from αλειφω, I anoint, in the ancient gymnastics, a slave appointed to anoint the athlete. The aliptæ amount to the same with what are otherwise called unctores or jatraliptæ. The word is sometimes used for the director, or superintendant of the exercises of the athlete; in which sense, it is synonymous with gymnastes, or pædotriba.
