Japan Houses.

The mode of constructing the houses
here, while causing the least outlay, is
admirably adapted to the conditions of
the climate. A Japanese house is really
a double affair. The most expense is
put into the roof, which is of splendid
heavy tile in all the towns and villages.
On the isolated farm houses straw thatch
is used more extensively. The roof is
sustained by uprights framed into it,
which have their foundations on the
ground. The floor is generally about
two feet above the ground, and is di-
vided into rooms by paper partitions,
which are in sections and slide in
grooves. They can, at pleasure, be en-
tirely removed, leaving, if necessary,
the entire area in one room. The sides
of the building, or st least one or more,
are also in sections, which slide in
grooves, and are removed during tho
day if required. Generally there is a
space left for passageway between the
outside and the inner partitions forming
the rooms, so that in winter the rooms
incloSed only by PAPER screens are made
warm and comfortable by the protection
of the outer shell when slid into posi-
ton, while in summer the facility with
which all partitions are removed insures
good ventilation. Very many of the
houses are built with an interior court,
devoted to ornamental shrubs and flow
ers, showing an admirable degree of ses-
thetic taste in the people.-.icr. San
francisco Chronicle.
