A JAPANESE HOUSE.
Its Oddities Have No Counterpart in West
ern Architecture.

Its Oddities Have No Counterpart in West
ern Architecture.
How to describe a Japanese house,
where nothing is like any thing corre-
spending to it at home? From the
outside it is an uninviting big black
barn; inside it is a spotless doll 5
house magnifed a thousand diameters,
all wood and wicker and white paper.
The entrance hall is platform raised
a couple of feet above the ground,
where you take Off your boots if you
are a foreigner, or leave your sandals
if you are japanese. A screen door
slides buck and you are in-but that
depends on circumstances. Sometimes
you are in one room and sometimes in
another. II may be a general sitting
room, fifty feet square; in may be q
bedroom (f you call early in the morn
ing); or you may find yourself in an
improvised sanctum and intruding
upon somebody writing labored de-
scriptions for a far-away press. For
here walls have not only ears, they
have also legs, and when you wish to
make a new room you simply form
square" by sliding enough panels in
their grooves to inclose the space, or,
at your pleasure all the rooms can be
thrown into one, inclosed, in our
case, by forty-six panels. Those
forming the sides of the house
consist each of sixty little paper
panes. To wet ones finger, stick
it silently into the window, and
peep through-this is the natural
Japanese counterpart of occidental
surreptitious inspection by the key
hole. The floor is of mats; not mats
strewed about as at home, but solid
structures OF delicate stuffed wicker
an inch thick, of conventional and
regular size, let into the loor-elastic,
spotless, immoyable, never profaned
by even the daintiest OF slippers. Chairs
and tables are, of course, unknown,
and the posture OF repose is to seat
oneself on ones heels. This squatting,
by the way, is very painful at first,
and, like the "blameless dances" in
.'Ruddigore, takes deal OF training"
At meal times you squat anywhere
and your food is placed before you.
When you are tired you throw your
self anywhere on the floor, with no
fear of soiling your white linen suit.
When evening comes you do not seek
your bedchamber; you simply make
it, by sliding the walls round the spot
you have chosen for your slumbers.
The rough and ready way, according
to my American friend, is to tread
around on the floor till you find a
specially soft mat. and then lay few
walls upon it for couch. A more
luxurious one is to have futon or
thick quilt spread out, and roll your
self in rug or blanket upon it. The
chief drawback for a foreigner is that
his hip-bone, which is more prominent
than that of japanese, is terribly in
the way, and my journalism not hav-
ing yet advanced to graduation upon
the plank bed, | have not learned the
trick of celebrating the natural pro-
jections of the body. But you sleep
comfortably in spite of the marauding
rat, whose immunity from attack has
rendered him equally inquisitive and
harmless, and in the morning when you
return from the bath, bed and bedroom
have alike disappeared. 1t is the story
of Aladdin domesticated.- Toledo Cor.

A PROPAGATE DUKE.


Brilliant nOvelists and dramatists
would undoubtedly find subject
worthy of study and description in the
person of the Duke of MOndelfi, an
Opulent member of the important Rus
sian colony in Paris. The Duke leads
tent that of one of those Roman En-
perors or oriental potentates described
by picturesque historians. He lives in
a splendid hotel in the Avenue du Bots
de Boulogne with his mother, Princess
WorOnzotf, who was a sister of Prince
Nicolas Troubetzkoi, and a member Of
the household of the Gar before her
lawsuit with her nephew, Count Woron-
zof1, one of the Emperor Alexander's
court marshals. The Duke of Mondelfi
is reputed to have $500, O00ayea most
Of which he manages to spend in a
magnificent manner. He nevergoes to
bed until daylight does appear, and he
generally gets up at three O clock in the
afternoon. After a meal, and extended
at full-length on a sumptuous divan, he
receives his friends and visitors, his
mother, the Pyincess, being present at
the levee. On these occasions the
Duke wears either a superb dressing
gown in ivory-colored plush, lined
with satin of the hue of the peach,
garnished with silver braiding and or
namented with jewels, or an ample
jacket Of heliotrope velvet, with gold,
and clasped together with ducal coro-
nets studded with brilliants. While
cOnversing with his visitor the host, it
is said, toys with precious stones of
rare value, polished and uncut. In
the intervals Of conversation q band of
Neapolitan singers MARBLE the melodi-
GUS airs of sunny Italy, and these are
succeeded by Tzigane musicians, who
make the ducal hall rings with their
native wild and diabolical strains.
After each musical performance the
leader of the band approaches the divan,
kisses the hand OF the most noble master
of the house, and receives his orders for
the next moroccan of demoniac bliss.
Later in the evening the Duke repairs
to a splendid cafe on the boulevards,
where he dimes with his friends and
listens once more to the musicians, to
whom he distributes bountiful largesse
IN the shade Of fistfuls Of louis, while
his guests quatf liberal bumpers of
sparkling champagne in his honor

a great item of expense and ought to

Nowadays there are many sugges-
tons in the papers as to saving seeds,
but this is not always advisable. Do
not attempt to save your own seeds I'M
less you have used every precaution
necessary to prevent cross-fertilization,
says practical gardener. Plants often
mix without the knowledge Of the
grower. A melon may be fertilized by
pumpkin; and the fruit of this season
may be apparently genuine, yet the
seeds of such, if used next season, may
cause failure of the crop or else destroy
the quality.

NEED OF GROOMING.
The Only Way in Which a Horse Can !
Kept in Good Condition.

The Only Way in Which Horse Can Bc
Kept in Good Condition.
No man can groom horse intelli-
gently unless he has a correct idea Of
the purposes of grooming and the
characteristics OF the skin. We have
seen people dig into the skin Of horse
with sharp curry-comb as if they
were smoothing down a stone, and the
pitiable cringing of the animal has no
effect in getting the fact into the mind
that the horse was being hurt, The
skin is to be reached, for one of the
chief purposes of the operation is to
cleanse the skin-remove tho dirt and
collections that have gathered on it.
In one sense. when the skin is covered
with dirt and the dried eXcretiOns that
have come through the pores, it is like
a head covered with dandruff and
those who have had an experience Of
that kind know how much discomfort
there is in it, The pores Of the skin
become clogged, and they can not,
while in this condition, fully perform
their functions. Their Importance is
so well understood that some have even
gone so far as to recommend the
Turkish bath for the horse, and we
honestly believe that it would often
prove valuable.
The skin is, therefore, to be distinctly
and effectively reached by the curry
comb, that it may do all it can do in
removing from the surface whatever
may irritate the skin or clog the pores.
The pores can not be fully cleaned by
the curry-comb, but they can be par
TALLY cleansed by it. But while it is
necessary to scratch" the skin, it
must be gently done. The horbe should
never be made to cringe under the pro-
cess of grooming. OF late years combs
have been manufactured that do not
harm the skin, and some of them are
valuable. 1t need not be said that farm
horses are often neglected in this re-
spect. Frequently it is the result Of
the hurry in our work. But suppose
the trotting horse should be thus neg
lected. If it could be with impunity,
certainly the owner would not 90 to
the expense that he incurs for having
the animal thoroughly groomed. 1t is
the only way that the trotting horse
can be kept in good condition. But tho
work horse has the same sort Of organ
ism that the trotting horse has, and
what is good for one is good for the
other. The truth is that if we paid
more attention to grooming we could
feed less, and our horses would be much
less liable to disease. Time spent in
performing these little things" on the
farm is usually well spent - We85,rN
