Mr.. SaitO Keeps $50 Daruma t1
Hold the Peace of Yamada.
gentle collector Of strange gods in
Japan. Mannosuke Saito by name. has
filled his house with go frowning Daruma
Because Of this obsession Mr.. Saito is a.
power in the countryside about the VIII
lage of Yamada In Ise province. a Japan
csc newspaper says. and some Of his
Daruma are approached by suppHcants
seeking a miracle
Daruma of the Buddhistfc anthology is
a doll and a god in Japan according TO
the years and the discretion OF his pos
SCISSOR. As a doll he bears relationship
TO the Humpty Dumpty manikins Of the
American toy shop who viii never stay
down, but always bob up into an erect
position no matter what fndignity may
be put upon his person.
He is round as a pear, his squat and
legless body swathed in scarlet robes
from which his stern and menaeing face
glowers in a set frown. The japanese
shops in this country all sell Daruma,
and the expatriate Daruma. true 10 tradi-
ton, insists upon sitting upright even In
an American nursery.
Daruma the god Is an imported deity
in Japan. He was an Indian priest who
was the first to practice zen. the science
Of meditation. So sedulously did Daruma
the priest sit before a shrine in contem-
plation OF his soul, says the Buddhistio
legend, that his legs withered away even
as his soul grew and finally ne found
himself incapable Of assuming any atti-
tude save that of sitting.
So Daruma became in Japan the trans
planted ideal of impenetrable calmness
and dauntless spirit judicial attributes
also assembled about him because OF his
stern and unbending demeanor. and as an
adjudicator Of petty disputes the Indian
gentleman Is popular with the pious
masses in japan. They have a saying
there that Daruma commands by his very
presence the motto, Rise up at once II
ever you fall and never suffer yourself to
be crushed under the weight OF adver-
sity''
Mr.. Saito, the collector Of Yamada. was
once interested in a dry goods store
which was crushed by a more powerful
competitor. Mr.. Saito's spirits went down
IN the BSnefAi Crash ana lney might nave
stayed down had It not been that a friend
came around 10 his house with a little
bronze Daruma in order that the stern
resolution that flashed from the legless
philosophers eyes might enter into and
stiffen the soul Of Mr.. Saito.
The Daruma spirit was potent. Mr..
Saito took a new grip on life and he also
began 10 collect odd Daruma. Now he
has $50 images Of the Indian benefactor in
his house
Whenever a husband and wife Of va
mada have falling out they go straight
way 10 Mr. saito. He takes them TO the
room where these $50 stern arbiters OF
right and wrong SIT ranged on shelves m
awesome array, and there he leaves them
with the injunction that they take eoun-
sci from Daruma. According to the
truthful Yomiuri Shimbun, OF Toxic, the
disputants never fail to come out Of that
sanctuary apologizing TO each other for
their former cantankerous dispositions.
