Regarding the public agitation for

local official, anxious to impress the
sovereign with the progressive ideas

his attention to the fact that the
schoolhouse was provided with baths
for the pupils.
The emperor showed the liveliest In.

the bathroom, whereupon the director
OF the school looked extremely un-
comfortable. The key could not be
found for some time, and his majesty
began to get impatient. Finally it was
produced, and the eager official opened
the door.
The emperor stepped into a VERT
able lumberroom, filled with a choice
collection Of broken desks and chairs
and waste paper that completely hid
the bath equipment

his staff are dressed like the old holy

standing around like priestesses all in

the table has gone through as many

for this. One is that many women
who speculate do so secretly, without
the knowledge Of their family, their

count they desire privacy, desire to
