JAPANESE SWORD MAKER
Religious Ceremonies Accompany
 Every Process

From the London Globe.
 The sword making of Japan Is perhaps the most curious in the whole world. Tn that country swords said to be equal to those of Toledo or Damascus are made by a special series of processes, but feature of tho industry is the religious ceremonial that accompanies every pro cess.
 On the walls of the huts in which the work is done are representations of the god of the sword makers and the chief goddess of the Shintos. There arc also bits of paper and wisps of straw, charms to keep away evil spirits. No female is allowed to enter the place, as the pres ence of women is supposed to be con ducive to. the appearance of demons, who would certainly bring disaster to the swords mission. Prayer is offered before the work begins and various religious rites must be performed before any one of the swords can be declared to have been well and truly made.
 The last thing that takes place after the polishing and sharpening of the swords is the offering of them one by one to the sword god to be blessed. The weapon is placed in front of the, kakemona on the wall. with an offering of saKi. rice ana sweetmeats, after which prayer scrolls are read and a blessing upon the work Is invoked.
 Wherever the making of metal swords may have originated the chief fame of the industry belongs, of course, to Damascus. where these weapons have been made from time immemorial. But almost equal ly famous are the swords of Khorasan, which is still the center of the best east ern work of the ki,yd. The best eastern blades are. however, at least equallsd to- day by those of European manufacture, which fact is evident when we remember that European swords are often met with in Asiatic hands, though in most cases they have been remounted in eastern styie i'd suit the fancy of their owners.
 The particular treatment of the steel used for the making of Asiatic swords has had not a little to do with the reputation of the latter. for the damascening or wa tering' of choice Persian and Indian arms gives a most attractive appearance to the work. Much the same thing wos in evil dence in the manufacture of Damascus gun barrels until It was discovered that fluid steel was preferable for the latter. at least from the manufacturers' point of view.
 In the case of sword steel the "watered" effect is produced by process of crystal ization, so that when the metal Is forged out 9 more or less regular pattern is seen running through it, and the effect is pleas ing to the eye, though 1t is said that the quality of the metal is neither better. nor worse for being treated in this fancy man. ner.
