29a

{Shabbat 64b continues}
AND WITH A WIG INTO A COURTYARD; WITH WADDING IN HER EAR, WITH WADDING IN HER SANDALS, AND WITH THE CLOTH PREPARED FOR HER MENSTRUATION; WITH A PEPPERCORN, WITH A GLOBULE OF SALT AND ANYTHING THAT IS PLACED IN HER MOUTH, PROVIDING THAT SHE DOES NOT PUT IT IN HER MOUTH IN THE FIRST PLACE ON THE SABBATH, AND IF IT FAILS OUT, SHE MAY NOT PUT IT BACK.
AS FOR AN ARTIFICIAL TOOTH, [OR] A GOLD TOOTH, — RABBI PERMITS BUT THE SAGES FORBID IT.

Gemara:
And it is necessary [to state all the cases].
For if we were told about her own [hair], that might be because it is not ugly; but as for her companions', which is unbecoming, I might say [that it is] not [permitted].
While if we were informed about her companions', that might be because she is of her own kind; but an animal's, {our gemara: that is not of her own kind. Rif has instead:} where it is recognizable, I might say [that it is] not [permitted]. Thus they are necessary.

It was taught: Providing that a young woman does not go out with an old woman's [hair], or an old woman with a young woman's. As for an old woman [not going out] with a young woman's hair, that is well, because it is an improvement for her; but [that] a young woman [may not go out] with an old woman's [hair]. why [state it], seeing that it is unsuitable for her?
Once he is taking one {he states the other}.

"WITH A HAIR-NET AND A WIG INTO A COURTYARD":
Rav said: Whatever the Sages forbade to go out therewith into the street, one may not go out therewith into a courtyard, except a hair-net and a wig.
Rabbi Anani bar Sason, in the name of Rabbi Yishmael, holds: It is all like a hair-net.

And the halacha is like Rav, for the Mishna states simply like him.

And according to Rav, why do these differ?
Ulla said: [They are permitted] lest she become repulsive to her husband, and her husband come to divorce her.
As we learnt {in a brayta}:

Vayikra 15:23:

לג וְהַדָּוָה, בְּנִדָּתָהּ, וְהַזָּב אֶת-זוֹבוֹ, לַזָּכָר וְלַנְּקֵבָה; וּלְאִישׁ, אֲשֶׁר יִשְׁכַּב עִם-טְמֵאָה. {פ

33 and of her that is sick with her impurity, and of them that have an issue, whether it be a man, or a woman; and of him that lieth with her that is unclean.

the early Sages ruled: That means that she must not rouge nor paint nor adorn herself in dyed garments; until Rabbi Akiva came and taught: If so, you make her repulsive to her husband, with the result that he will divorce her! But what [then] is taught by, 'and she that is sick shall be it, her impurity'? She shall remain in her impurity until she enters into water.

{Shabbat 65a}
"AND WITH THE WADDING IN HER EAR":
Rami bar Yechezkel learnt {tnei}: Providing it is tied to her ear.

"AND WITH THE WADDING IN HER SANDALS":
Rami bar Yechezkel learnt {tnei}: Providing it is tied to her ankle {our gemara: sandal}, firmly tied.

"AND WITH THE CLOTH SHE PREPARED FOR HER MENSTRUATION":
Rami bar Yechezkel thought to say: Providing it is fastened between her thighs.
Rava said to him: Even if it is not tied to her: since it is repulsive, she will not come to carry it {if it drops out}.

Rabbi Yirmiyah bar Abba asked of him {our gemara: Rabbi Yirmiyah asked of Rabbi Abba}: What if she made a handle for it?
{Sewing on to it a piece that she could hold in her hand. This is not repulsive, and so she may carry it.}

He said to him: Even if she made a handle for it, it is permitted.

It was stated {by Amoraim} also:
Rav Natan {our gemara: Nachman} bar Oshaya cited Rabbi Yochanan: Even if she made a handle for it, it is permitted.

"WITH A PEPPERCORN, AND WITH A GLOBULE OF SALT":
A peppercorn is for [counteracting] the [evil] breath of the mouth; a globule of salt is for the gum. {Rashi: for toothache}

AND WITH THE WADDING IN HER EAR. Rami bar Yechekzel learnt: Providing it is tied to her ear.

AND WITH THE WADDING IN HER SANDALS. Rami bar Yechekzel learnt: Providing it is tied to her sandal.

AND WITH THE CLOTH SHE PREPARED FOR HER MENSTRUATION. Rami bar Yechekzel thought to say, Providing it is fastened between her thighs. Said Rava, Even if it is not tied to her: since it is repulsive, she will not come to carry it.
Rabbi Yirmiya asked Rabbi Abba: What if she made a handle for it?
He said to him: It is permitted.

It was stated likewise {by Amoraim}:
Rav Nachman bar Oshaya cited Rabbi Yochanan: [Even] if she made a handle for it, it is permitted.

Rabbi Yochanan used to go out with them {wadding in his ear} to the Beth Hamidrash, but his companions disagreed with him.
Rabbi Yannai would go out with it into a karmelith but all his contemporaries disagreed with him.
But Rami b. Ezekiel learnt: Providing it is tied to her ear? — There is no difficulty: in the one case it is firmly placed; in the other it was not.

WITH A PEPPERCORN, AND WITH A GLOBULE OF SALT. A peppercorn is for [counteracting] the [evil] breath of the mouth; a globule of salt is for the gum.

"AND WITH ANYTHING THAT SHE PLACES IN HER MOUTH":
ginger, or cinnamon.

"AN ARTIFICIAL TOOTH, [OR] A GOLD TOOTH, — RABBI PERMITS BUT THE SAGES FORBID IT":
Abaye said: Rabbi, Rabbi Eleazar {our gemara: Eliezer}, and Rabbi Shimon ben Eleazar all hold that whatever detracts from a person['s appearance], one will not come to display it. Rabbi, as stated {above, about the gold tooth}. Rabbi Eleazar, for it was taught: Rabbi Eleazar declares [her] non-culpable on account of a kobeleth and a flask of spikenard oil. Rabbi Shimon ben Eleazar, for it was taught: Rabbi Shimon ben Eleazar stated a general rule: Whatever is [worn] beneath the net, one may go out therewith; whatever is [worn] above the net, one may not go out with it.

MISHNA:
SHE MAY GO FORTH WITH THE SELA' (a coin) ON A ZINITH [CALLUS].
YOUNG GIRLS MAY GO OUT WITH THREADS, AND EVEN WITH CHIPS IN THEIR EARS.
ARABIAN WOMEN MAY GO FORTH VEILED, AND MEDIAN WOMEN MAY GO FORTH WITH THEIR CLOAKS THROWN OVER THEIR SHOULDERS.
INDEED, ALL PEOPLE [MAY DO LIKEWISE]. BUT THAT THE SAGES SPOKE OF NORMAL USAGE
