AN INCENSE PARTY.
odd Etiquette of an Interesting Jap.
Rnese Function.

odd Etiquette of an Interesting Jap
anese Function.
II you ever receive an invitation to
Japanese incense party. accept it
promptly 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
trtls for generations the same as we
have trained the eye and ear. and they
display a skill which at times is star
Ting to a westerner. There is an odd
etiquette to be followed in these social
affairs. For the twentyfour 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 host. enter it as softly as you cali
and as slowly as possible. This is 10
prevent making draft by the move
ment of your own body. Be equally
leisurely in opening and closing doors
as q quick movement induces sud
den rush Of air. In the drawing room
the hostess burns n series Of incenSes.
usually four or five in number. Each
guest Is allowed to take three shifts of
each incense and must then jot down
its name and number upon a 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 incenSes en-
ployed, which are checked off upon
the cards. The guest who has guessed
the largest number receives u pretty
prize, which is sometimes q silver o,
bronze incense burner. statuette OF
carving. Among the Japanese the aver
age woman guesses correctly about ~
times in ten. while with the America a
women the ratio is three in ten.-Nev
