The Touch of Nature.

There Is cleanliness which Is too
clean, and Is then baroness. This is
recognized by the artist-philosophers In
Japan whose aim Is to make the home
life sweet and beautiful. Artistic man
ners In Japan began with the eti-
quette of tea-drinklng, round which has
developed domestic ritual. Its ex-
pert devotees are called masters.
Some of the tea-masters have been very
great artists and the founders of
schools of painting. One Of these was
Rlklu. A story, told of him in the lit.
tie "Book Of Tea," written by Jap
anese author, Okakura-Kakuzo, illus
trates the tea-masters idea Of cleanli-
ness.
Rikiu was watching his son Shoan
as he swept and watered the garden
path.
"Not clean enough" said Riklu, when
Shoan had finished his task, and babe
him try again. After a weary hour the
son turned to Rlkiu.
Father, there is nothing more to be

the third time, the stone lanterns and

Boy" chided the master, "that
is not the way garden path should
be swept"
Saying this, Rlkiu stepped into the
garden, shook tree and scattered over
the garden gold and crimson leaves,
scraps of the brocade OF autumn. What
Rlkiu demanded was not cleanliness
alone. but the beautiful and the nat

where his mother, In her charming

reminded in an unexpected fashion that
her pupils there had not forgotten her.
He was careless correspondent, and
the one letter which he had written

stay yet lay forgotten In his pocket,
when one morning, on coming to the
mail-box, he found the letter-carrler
lingering beside 1t, holding postcard
in his hand. He looked up from an OBJ
