Originally these sets often included a book, a method of heating or lighting at night such as candles or lamps, and/or a method of washing up in the morning. Until the widespread use of indoor plumbing, people did not do morning or evening toilet care (such as face washing) in a bathroom, as privies, necessaries, outhouses, and other places with the toilet were a distance from the house and only used for human elimination due to levels of filth. Therefore, people kept these items nearby for morning or evening use.
