and the women were all on one side OF Il.
1t IS no use keeping the law in Japan. If
a policeman wishes to lock a man up, he
does not wait for him to be guilty. Jap
anese don't keep the law. they obey the
police. But they are a law abiding peO-
pie, they don't think about having rights
they hadn't even the right to live thirty
years ago.
They have a craze for massage. which
is called shampooing They don't go to the
massager-the masSager comes to them.
Their secretiveness about their home life
is not outraged, because massagng Is the
monopoly Of the blind. The toot-toot of
the maSSSager'S twinpennv whistle and the
clOp-clop of his bamboo staff are the most
familiar sounds after dark. The blind
man waits till night to go his rounds, partly
because the Jap likes to take a bath in
boiling water anf be shampooed at the end
OF his days work. because, as he sagely
observes, no one can see in the dark.
Some Queer Etiquette.
You may see a Japanese do almost any,
thing in the street except blow his nose.
1t is not good manners to be seen blow
ing your nose IN Japan, but you may belch
in any company; it is bad manners not
to belch If you are dining with a Jap
anese; it looks as IL the dinner was not
good enough for you to overeat yourself.

drunk before dinner. and not after.
Toothpicks are only used with a hand
covering the mouth. and they should by
rights be inscribed with a pun. Meals
are served la Russo. The Japanese have
not only a Language Of flowers, but a Lam
guage Of hair and fans Amorous pro-
posals are made with the fan, and a wo-
mans hair tells a man Of the world
whether she Is unmarried, or wife. or a
widow. 1t even tells him II the widow
is willing to marry again. Large ears are
a mark Of beauty in Japan, and fat peo-
pie are much admired. In the words Of
Gritfis "a rotund physique is considered a
good gift Of nature"
It IS cheap to set up a laundry in Japan;
you do your washing in the street with
out soap, and you do your ironing with
out irons by stretching the wrung-out gar

Even in Tokyo foreigner draws better
crowd than a conjuror, and a Jap likes to be
close when he is looking. If 1t was not for
the midshipmtes of police in ten minutes
an artist would be part of a human ant
heap. You always know when you are
outside a theater or temple by the rows of
absurd boots and shoes and sandals and
clogs. The Japanese leaves his boots out
side when he goes into anything-even a
police court. He boasts that he does not
make street of his house. His mark of
respect is to take off his boots, not his hat.
AS a race the japanese do not wear hats.
