his way from Europe for the purpose Of
making q study Of the business methods

the view to introducing those methods
In Japan, was interviewed yesterday at
the Hotel Imperial on Broadway.
Hibi is accompanied by Hironuchi
Shugio, an elderly man with beard on
his chin and always in his frock coat. They
are about the quietest pair Of humanity
that one ever meet. Yet they have been
gathering various important informations
and suggestions from various department
stores in New York quietly, but patiently,
as il they we're doing so for their life. Every
day Hibi would be seen going out Of his
hotel with his interpreters to visit now

in this city he has been visiting frequently,

Of these stores he visited hundred times
each, either disguised as a customer or
calling upon the managers OF the stores for
informations.

We have complaint to make and are

at an hour when law-abiding citizens

ENJOYING that restful slumber that comes
only to the just and faithful, we were
disturbed, Aye. were awakened from a
refreshing sleep by the constant tap, tap
on the window panes of our boudoir.
We inquired "who is there?" and the
response that reached our ears was
calculated to make saints blood boil:
"Get your little pencil and book" COM
