How japanese Babies Are Punished.


The babies in Japan have sparkling
eyes and funny little tufts of hair, they
look so quaint and old fashioned, exactly
like those doll babies that are sent over
here to America. Now, in our country
young babies are apt to put everything
in their mouths; a button or pin, or
anything, goes straight to the little, rosy,
wide open mouth, and the nurse or
mamma must always watch and take
great care that baby does not swallow
something dangerous. But in Japan
they put the small babies right down in
the sand by the door of the house, or on
the floor, but never saw them attempt
to put anything in their mouths unless
they we're ted to do SO, and no one
seemed TO be anxious about them.
When little boys or girls in Japan are
naughty and disobedient, they must be
punished, of course; but the punishment
is very strange. There are small pieces
Of rice paper called moxa, and these are
lighted with match and then put upon
the finger or hand or arm Of the naughty
child, and they burn spot on the tender
skin that hurts very much. The child
screams with the pain, and the red hot
moxa sticks to the skin for moment or
two, and then goes out; but the smart
ing burn reminds the little child of his
fault. ! do not like these moxas.
think it IS cruel punishment. But per-
haps it is better than n whipping, Only
| wish little children never had to be
punished. "A. V. II. Eastlslie in st.
