We know the Jap always takes his

think of warm bath as rather risky

but the Jap gets around that by saking

or unconcernedly rides in a railway
train beside an open window. He is
afraid Of neither water nor air.
His house is open to the four winds
of heaven by day, and by night airy
shutters afford slight protection to
those within. Protection from the ele

sign of immodesty among these peo-

through the streets OF one Of our gfeat

something that caves az unpleasant
tttmp1n sion; and should he visit the
| slulds his thought must be-what an
inferno our modern civilization has
created In Japan there is no trace Of
| this. There is no drunkenness and no
Quarreling, and should dispute arise
it would be conducted in a dignified
way, for the Japanese, when excited,
do not raise their voices, and the ma
| ton possesses no oaths. These re-
marks are not meant to apply only to
the better residential quarters, but
also to the meanest parts of the great
cities.'
Add to the universal peacefulness
| the universal cleanliness, the beauty
of the scenery, the picturesqueness of
the people and their costuming, and
one would seem to find in the empire
Sof the mikado an earthly paradise
whence no. one would ever care to
Journey forth. But, of course, this
being part of the terrestrial sphere,
there is not absolute perfection; there
abounds fickleness, immortality, a pea

BILE by the most devoted worshippers.

space for but fieeting glimpse OF life

st. Francis Xavier wrote of the jap
anese back in the sixteenth century:
''This nation is the delight of my
soul,' and since that time innumerable
visitors to the east have spoken SUI
perlatiye words of praise of them. For
the charm of the Japanese is strong on
one once associated with them, espe-
cially one from prosaic America or
England; it is very difficult to re-
strain admiration within bounds in
face of so much excellence.
The Jap unconsciously lives the sim
pie life, without any complex striving
after it he daily and hourly goes his
unencumbered way. AS to the matter
of clothes, he has reduced them to the
