M JAPANESE OppIr1Es.-One great

fg JAPANESE ODDITIEs.-One great
popularity of the people is their mania
for squattiug they seem to do everything
In this position, and even when man Is
ploughing in the field he looks as if he
wanted to squat. Their habits in many
things seem to be so often exactly the
opposite of ours, that it almost resolves
itself into a rule of contraries. When
they cook goose instead of putting the
goose on the fire, they put the fire on the
goose, thus economizing fuel. In planning
or saving a board, they plane or saw to-
ward themselves instead of from them
selves. When you get into house, you
take off your shoes instead of your hat.
Instead of saying John Smith, you would
saw Smith John The country is rich IN
flowers and vegetable productions. They
have carried the art of making paper to great
perfection. DR.. MCGOWAN showed an
oeercoat made of Paper, perfectly strong
and se-viceable. In this country We have
paper cellars, but in Japan they go further,
and have paper handkerchiefs, which are
very beautiful and soft. After they
have used a handkerchief, they throw it
away, and are thus saved the trouble of a
washerwoman. They even weave their
paper, and make what may be called pa
per cloth of it.
