When death has kissed the laughing

We do not sigh when golden skies have

The purple shadows and the gray Of

Because we know the morning lies

And we must wait a little while for

So when. grown weary with the care

We. should not weep, but learn to count

SHOPPING IN JAPAN,
Great Dellberation Marks All Business
Transactions.

GREAT Deilberation Marks All Business
Transactions.
japanese are very fond OF strOlIing
through their baZaars. You enter at
one door and leave by another. Goods
for sale are displayed on each side OF
aisles that wind through the length of
the shop. Passing up and down
these uisles they lead You to the
second, and often third story of the
building, then back again through diff
| ferent aisles. causing you to travel the
length Of the establishment many
times. Finally you see the doorway
few feet distant, but even then you
must travel this maze several times
its length to escape.
Usually shopping is very restful in
Japan. You sit around on the floor
and in some shops they bring you cups
Of tea to sip and "hibachi' from
which to light your pipe.
Time Is no consequence to the Orien-
tails, nor are they eager to sell. Their
IDEAS Of trade are very peculiar. You
are compelled to ask them whether
:.
that they have them in the store. Ten
pieces of an article sometimes cost II
times the cost of one. They will not
sell 100 at less rate. but insist on
your paying extra because Of the large
quantity desired. They frankly tell
and then that foreigners have to pay
about 80 to 100 per cent. more, and
laugh.
In the largest dry goods store in
Toxic 80 clerks are seen knceling upon
the floor of the large building, but no
merchandise is visible. 1t is kept in
fireproof (9 structures in the rear, and
carried to and fro for customers in
spection by numerous boys. 1t is
very interesting to watch proceedings
in such store.
Nearly all Japanese stores are con-
Quoted in the same manner, though
some shops hare on display samples
Of articles sold. If foreign lady IS
shopping, crowd Of Japanese usual
ly blockade the store, anxious to see
the strange sight. Preparatory to the
new treaties going into effect the gov
ernment issued an order for the ma
tives to abandon this obstructive hab-
it.
The Japanese are great imitatOrs.
Almost every staple article has its imi-
tation here and its label counterfeited.
A Philadelphia shoe backing has half
a dozen limitations. One maker in
serts his name, leaving North Front
street. Philadelphia, remaining, and
the label unchanged, except superior
quality" is superior quarity."
Another inserts his name and
Japanese town, but leaves "133
and 14G North Front street." and so
on.
The Japanese made heroic efforts
at English. While butchering it hor-
ribly they do remarkably well, con-
sidering everything. On the few Eng
lish signs of leading firms on Tokios
chief street are seen: 'Druccist." for
druggist; foreign Cords" ''caned
goods, wholesale and RETAIL" The
shop Of the articles of the finery,"
THE carriage and all of harness" and
"A harness maker" ''manufakteal-
ary." ''apothekaly." etc.-Tokio Cor
