HOMES OF THE JAps
METHODS AND MANNERS OF DO
MESTIC LIFE IN JAPAN.
The Women Are Merely Servants of
Their Mothers in Law-There Is No
Furniture in the Houses, and Life Is
Simple.

Because of the war and the great
sympathy which the people of this
country seem to feel for Japan, every
thing pertaining to that land of flow
ers seems to be of interest just now.
One Of the current magazines contains
an article which gives us an excellent
idea of the home life of the people and
also an insight into the lives of Jap
anese women. Now, with all due re-
spect to the Flowery Kingdom and re-
gard for the simplicity of living, which
is an ideal we might do well to emu
late. we think it is better to be an
American than a Japanese woman.
The men and women marry very young
and mutual love and affection count
but little in matrimony; it is rather a
sort of perfunctory duty to marry and
send down sons and daughters to carry
on the race. If family Is so unfor-
tunate as not to have a soma dire ca
lanaity-then one is adopted, or if there
is a daughter a husband must be
chosen for her, and upon coming into
the family he sinks his identity and
takes the family name. The family is
everything: the unit nothing When a
japanese girl marries she becomes the
servant of her ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
mother law and husband, and when
her son grows up she becomes his
servant, too. Te American feminine
ears this sounds unbearable, but when.
a woman Is born to that sort of thing
she knows nothing else and murmurs
not. The domestic economy of the
household is extremely simple, and the
houses very small, usually only con-
tanning two or three rooms and these
formed by sliding partitions. The liv-
ing rooms are in the back of the house
and the kitchen in front. There are no
tears shed in a Japanese household by
the wife when her honorable mother
in-law passes to her reward, and in
this the Japanese are not unlike other
nations, for there the wife is not the
head of her household until the death
of the honorable boss, and often not I'M
til her son brings home wife to be
her servant. A Japanese family has
no privacy, as the sliding partitions
are pushed aside early in the morning,
but that fact does not seem to disturb
them in the least. So much do they
like to be among their kind and not
alone that japanese will prefer to
take his bath at the public bath house,
where he may gossip with those he
finds there. Sometimes indeed he has
his private bath removed to the road
side, where he may converse with the
passersby, state of things that gives
us pause. The police now, except in
isolated districts, have forbidden this
public bathing.
Japanese households contain no fur
niture, which reduces the busting
problem to a minimum; they contain
only clean white mats, just so many
in each room, and rooms are spoken
of as one or two or three-mat size.
There is a firebox in each room made
of metal or pottery, filed with char
coal ashess which answers to our elab-
crate heating system. Simplicity is
the keynote of everything. Over this

Objects to Statue of Frederick.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 10
During consideration of the army APP
preparation bill in the senate Mr..
Bacon protested against the acceptance
of the statue of Frederick the Great
of Germany, rendered by Emperor Will
liam, on the ground that the former
Prussian king was not in sympathy
with American institutions. Mr.. Stew
art defended Frederick against what he
characterized as Mr.. Bacons gross
misrepresentation. The army appro-
priation bill was passed.
The senate also passed the Philip
pine shipping bill, after speeches in OPP
position by Messrs. Culberson and Pat
terson. Mr.. Pattersons substitute of
tonnage tax bill in the interest of
American vessels was voted down, and
the bill was amended at Mr.. Lodges
instance so as to provide for the con-
tinuation in operation of the navigation
laws in regard to vessels arriving in
the Philippines from the United States.

surface kim has heavy rib that gives

Fog on the East and North rivers
has been so frequent this winter, and
the peril of collision between ferry
boats so often imminent, that atten-
ton has been drawn to the almost in
variable action of women passengers
the moment the danger, real OR ap-
parent, becomes manifest. "They are
Just like a flock of sheep" said a vet
eran pilot whose nerves have been
racked by the Mysteries of women
aboard his craft when the dull roar of
the fog horn was blown as a warning,
and not as notice Of disaster, "and
the moment one of them cries out that
we have struck something-which may
or may not be true-there is rush to
one side of the boat, and 1t lists over.
This Increases the alarm, for it seems
b that the average woman believes the
greatest safety exists where there is
sthe greatest number. They jam up

Mrs. Bronson is awaiting the result of
the assault on Port Arthur, the landing
OF japanese troops in Korea and a few
other moves on the strategetical board
before she carries out her programme
for trip from California to the Land
of the Rising Sun. She is not well up
on the chessboard play and therefore
does not believe her departure will be
delayed more than three weeks, by
which time, some friends advise her,
the subjugation of the Russ will be
complete, and Japan will have what,
as the race track men say, a dead

friends, however, tell Mrs Bronson
the war is likely to last long enough
to postpone her trip, if she is waiting
on its ending, not for weeks, but for
months {

The short coat blouses slightly all

with a v shape opening at the neck.
The shoulders, as will be seen, are
rather unique, extending in curves over
the top of the sleeves which gives great
breadth and is a smart finish to the
simple jacket. The front and shoulders
are trimmed with buttons.

Odd sleeves and shoulder effects are one
OF the pronounced fads of the present
fashions, and nothing seems to be too
eccentric for this part of the costume
One style much in vogue is to cut the
sleeve with the inner arm piece and
deep cuff in one and to fill in the back
with a full puff either tucked or trim
med with rows of tiny ruff1es. For gown
made of velvet, cloth or heavy silk this
sleeve is very pretty for the tucked or
ruff1ed part of the sleeve is made of chif-
fon or some other diaphanous fabric.
which gives that airy dainty touch to the
gown so much to be desired.
The sleeve of the suit illustrated is
modification of this style adapted to the
requirements of the street gown.
1t is made with plain inner arm piece,
separate, however, from the rounded cuff,
and a full outer arm portion gathered
at its lower edge. The cuff is trimmed
with three large buttons and has an I'M
der frill of plated white chiffon.

that the Japanese are backward or
slow in imbibing new ideas. No coun
try in the world has made the progress
Japan has in the last hundred years.

still very strong and one of the very
last things to be changed is the ways
of domestic life. A conservatism about

Doesn't Want Chinese Too Near.

BERLIN, March 10.-The Tageblatt
this morning publishes statement
regarding the motives of Russia in
protesting against the concentration of
Chinese troops on the Manchurian
frontier, and intimates that it originat-
ed with the Russian embassy in Ber-
lin.
The communication says that the as.
sumption that Russia was influenced
by political motives, such as cherish
ing designs on Chinese territory, In
making this protest, is erroneous. Her
motives were purely military. Russia
is convinced that she soon will over
come the Japanese; nevertheless she
cannot permit the operations of troops
nor can she be threatened by disturb
ances in her rear. The presence of
Chinese troops on the Manchurian
border might result in unpleasant oc-
currences. The ST. Petersburg gov
eminent is fully convinced that China
honestly intends to maintain a strict
neutrality, but this concentration of
troops would endanger such neutral
ity.
The Picking government is itself not
sure of it's troops. Yuan Shi Kai, the
Chinese commander-in- chief, would
hardly disobey orders, but it is differ
ent when it comes to subordinates and
the soldiery. It. must be remembered
that the Chunchus (bandits), who al
ready are beginning to make trouble
in Manchuria, are for the most part
ex- Chinese soldiers who deserted, Oft
en- in entire regiments, taking modern
weapons and even cannon with them,
to lead robber life in Manchuria. If
Chinese troops are now stationed on
the frontier, there exists the danger
that at some favorable opportunity
they will desert and join the Chunchus.
This would make it necessary to de-
tach Russian troops from the front to
fight the marauders in the rear; con-
sequently Russia protests against con-
centration.

FARMER DYNAMITES
USELESS OLD HORSE
Before Being obIiterated the Animal
Gives His Master Intense Moments.

APPLETON, Wis, March 1O.-John
Fggert, a farmer of the town of Center,
failing to get neighbors to shoot an
old horse which was useless and not
daring to do it himself, tied dynamite
around the horses neck and took the
animal to a field. After attaching the
explosive he touched off the fuse and
started to run.
The horse started to follow. Eggert
had not thought of this and was ter
rorized, expected to be blown up any
moment. He reached a wire fence in
his wild scramble, crawled through it
and ran about two rods, when he heard
terrific explosion behind him. Look
ing back he saw no horse and no fence,
and the ground was torn up for yards
around.
