A CITY Without Soap.

Miss Kate V. johnson, of Madison
Ind, who has lived in Japan tor thirteen
years, talks in an interesting way OF the
little people Of that country, who live
without chairs, bedsteads, knives, forks,
spoons or soap; of the women who paint
their teeth black and shave their eye
brows to indicate loyalty to their hus-
bands; OF the carpenters who make long
beautiful shsvings 10y drawing their
back door at he front OF the house; and
OF their books in which the preface is
placed at the end of the book and foot
notes at the head of the page.
Miss johnson first went to Akita, a city
OF &C, 600 persons, and found it city with
out soap. Naoye Saito, young Japanese
girl who came to live in her house, had
never had soap bath in her life. She
kicked and screamed when her first bat h
WAS given her and said they were trying
to Kill her. A cake OF Ivory soap wss sent
Naoye Saito's father with instructions to
use 1t on his person. He came back the
next day and asked for anot her cake, say
ing he hao used il all up.
Before Miss johnson left Japan last
summer she took Naoye Ssito, who had
been with her for ten years, back to her
native province, and left her to earn her
own living. While still in Toxic, few
days before sailing for America, Nj ISIS
Johnson received letter from Nsoye in
which she said: 81 forgot one thing very
necessary to our comfort in this place.
Will you please go to the grocery store
and buy me dozen cakes of Ivory soap
and send them TO me at once?o She sent
q money order to pay for it, and the soap
was sent.

In some of the Swiss valleys the inhabi.
tants are all afflicted with goitre or thick
neck" Instead of regarding this as de-
formity they seem to think it a natural feat
ure of physical development, and tourists
passing through the valleys are sometimes
jeered by the goilrous inhabitants, because
they are without this offensive swelling.
Thus form of disease may become so com
mon that 1t is regarded as a natural and
necessary condition of life. 1t is so, to a
large extent with what are called diseases of
women. Every woman suffers more or less
from irregularity, liberation, debilitatng
drains, or female weakness, and this suffer-
ing is so common and so universal that many
women accept it as a condition natural and
necessary to their sex But it is a condition
as unnatural as II is unnecessary. The use
OF Dr. Pierce's Favoritc Prescription
strengthens the delicate womanly functions,
so that woman is practically delivered from
the pain and misery which eat up ten years
of her life-between the ages of fifteen and
fory.hve. "Favorite Prescription" makes
weak women strong and sick women well.
