AN INCENSE PARTY.
Odd Etiquette of an Interesting jap
anese Function.

If ycr ever receive an invitation to a
japanese incense party, accept it
rSxamptly and thankfully. 1t has no
counterpart in our own social system
and is as merry and pleasant an affair
as can be imagined. The people of the
mikado's land have trained the nos
trils for generations the same as we
have trained the eye and ear, and they
display skill which at times Is star
ting tosa westerner. There is an ODD
etiquette to be followed in these social
affairs. For the twenty-four hours
preceding the party each guest must
avoid the use of anything which can
produce any odor whatever. Scented
SOAPS. perfumes, odorous foods and
even spices must be avoided. These
prevent the user from smelling accu-
rately and also interfere with the other
members of the party.
When you dress, be careful to put on
no garment that has been kept in the
neighborhood of camphor wood, tobac-
co. bouquets, dried blossoms or scented
powder. When you reach the house Of
your most, eIlleF IL as SOLtlS as SNu SoA
and as slowly as possible. This Is to
prevent making draft by the move
ment of your own body. Be equally
leisurely In opening and closing doors,
as a quick movement induces sud
den rush of air. In the drawing room
the hostess burns a series of incenses.
usually four or five in number. Each
guest Is allowed to take three sniffs or
each incense and must then jot down
its name and number upon card.
Each of the four or five incenses Is
burned two or three times, so that the
number of cards will vary from eight
to fifteen. At the end the cards are
laid out on the table, and the hostess
reads the names of. the ilfcenses en-
ployed, which are checked off upon
the cards. The guest who has guessed
the largest number receives pretty
prize, which Is sometimes silver or

not without truth so far as the Bible is

The eulogy closed with the words: 30
death. where is thy sting? o grave,
where is thy victory"

as that proves that the grand style in

Down the Old Wedge

When they tore down the wedge, whicl
mad worked as hedge,
Or wall of division to all.
Some said that they wouldn't, am
hoped that they couldn't.
Cause the wedge OF division to fall.
But the sixth morn of May, a memora
BILE day,
Came an army of thirty men strong
And Mayor Schumacher, by some
called corker,
And the life of the wedge wasn't long
For their captain, they knew, could
well carry them through.
Though the occupants grumbled and
howled;
And they went straight to work-not
man cared to shirk-
And they hammered and pounded
and mauled.
With a maui and roar on the shop
and the store.
And the place Of the delicate things;
With Il dust and din, and a racke.
1t appeared that adobes had wings.
Pettifoggers were there, just as thick
as the hair
On the back Of the poor. lousey dog;
And they talked of the law, and in
junction, but pshaw!
Who was scared, mid that terror of
fog?
There was no time to waste but the
dwellers made haste
To escape from that wedge. one and
all;
With their wares and their lives, and
some with their wives,
And great was the confusion and
fall
For no Gold-baum could heal, nor no
other appeal
Need be made, for twas doing and
done;
And the wedge was erased, and almost
effaced
And was gone ere the sitting Vt sun.
All progress impeders should learn to
be heeders,
For the people in general know
What is best to be done. for the many
or one.
So submit. and just call it A Go.
