Like the Chinese, and in fact every
other Asiatie race, the japanese enter
tain no respect for women, whom they
regard as creatures OF interior intelli-
gence, resembling brutes in being with
ont soul. Thus it Is almost impossi-
bic TO bring any untraveled Japanese 10
comprehend the Difference which the
men Of civilized nations pay 10 women.
The latter, in his eyes, are sorely fitted
to act rs his servants--nay, even as the
slayes-of the stronger sex. Seldom, il
ever, is the wife permitted 10 sit at
table with her husband, no matter how
high her rank may DO, and when adj
mitted to his presence she is forced by
etiquette to approach in the same man
ner as the domestics. namely, on all
fours, with repeated prostrations.
Imagine ayoung and delicately nurtured
American girl, such as, Cor instance, tho
fair quakeress Of Philadelphia, who has
always been accustomed to the most
thorough Difference and courtesy,
thrown for the first time among
set OF men such as the un-
travelled friends Of her Japanese
husband-men who are devoid OF |
every feeling, not alone OF civil
lied respect for her sex, but even Of
the most elementary notions Of civilized !
decency. Anybody who has lived |
among the japanese, as have, writes

spoct and delicacy outraged and, in
course Of time, completely bluntsd.

body in our food, in the air we
breathe, and through the pores Of
the skin. Thence they get into the

where they fasten and increase with

We had an hour to wait at a railroad
junction in Louisiana, and four or five
of us sat down in the shade on the edge
of the platform and hung our legs over.
1t was very comfortable, and we were
smoking and talking, when man with
rope in his hand, evidently looking
for a stray mule, came out Of the
bushes opposite US and stood looking
up and down the track. By and by he
directed his gaze towards our feet, but
we didn't mind him until he drawled
out:
"You all there?"

why, and then looked over to see q rat
