A FINE PUBLICATION.

From far.of Japan there comes to us
the first number of publication Just
begun at Tokyo, under the patronage
of the Tokyo Industrial Association
the Japan Magazine, ga representa-
tive of things Japanese 1t
makes a fine appearance. The frontis-
piece is portrait of the Empress of
Japan in European dress, an apparel
which is not at all comparable in
beauty TO the figure on the front cover,
arrayed in Japanese costume. The con-
tents of the number are first-class. show
ing much of the customs and litera-
ture Of Japan. 1t is full of good illus
trations and is curiouSly printed in
some respects. Most of the first half
Of the magazine is printed in English
from Roman type. There is. however,
Okuma printed IN German, or old Eng
lish, text. The other portion of the
magazine is printed in Japanese.
Whether it is a repetition of the Eng
lish articles or not, il is impossible for
us to say. 1t is not nearly as long as
the English part, but then if we are
to Judge by the poem composed by the
Empress and made the first article
printed, the japanese may after all be
full duplicate of the English part
of the magazine, for numbering the let
tcrs. it appears that il takes about
ten letters to express the meaning In
English to one OF the japanese trans
Iteration. This when the type of both
is the Roman character There are many
curious stories Of old Japan There is
fine presentation of the lacquer in
dustry of Japan, There are reminis-
cences Of Prince Ito, and statement of
the aims of the Tokyo Industrial Asso-
citation. 1t is right Illuminating pub
lication. one that ought to have a
wide field in the United States.

The book is full of aphorisms of various
kinds, first on definition, then on phil

morality, on good and evil, on willing

new commandments, and general aphor.

not very much new IN these aphorisms,
but they are put in a catchy way and
some of them are decidedly off in the
philosophy, especially as compared with
the conventional standards. The Metz
