ALABAMA MAN WRITES
 IMPRESSIONS OF JAPAN

Japan is q country of surprises, but slowly things Japanese crept shyly into our hearts and before we knew t we were in love with Japan. Let mo toll you of their customs and the many
 things in their life so different from ours. Their houses were wonder They have no chimneys to their houses-yet the climate is about the same as in our middle states. They do not sit at q ta- ble when they dine, but double up their feet and sit on cushions on the floor and their meals are spread around them and eaten with chop sticks. spoons, Knives and forks are unknown to them. They all wear wooden shoes or rather clogs with fastenings which come up Between the toes to keep them on. The women wear no hats or head covering of any kind. neither do they wear corsets. A hat or bonnet would mak c them ridiculous. Their only dress is the kimona and they wear not only one, but three to six at a time. They wear short snow white socks. barely reach ing the ankles. The kimona almost reaches the socks. giving one just a glimpse of the bare bur shapeiy limb above. They are of the unerring Jap anese type. Very low, dainty and slight of build. small feet and hands black hair and eyes, dark skin and rosy cheeks, shy and modest but with their coquettish smile and musical giggIe they invariably find sqft spot in the hearts of the bold. bad American But simple as these people are in their daily

more than a months travel in Japan and through its largest cities I have only seen one intoxicated man. Jap anese never kiss or shake hands. yet they bow and bow and bow until you get tired. The men and women never dance together. l have seen hundreds of thousands of people. many of the poor Of the poor yet have seen only one beggar. and he had lost both arms. By the way this is the only maimed person ] have seen--not another crip- pie of any kind. The railroads and telegraph lines are all owned by the government. So are the tobacco. salt and sugar industries. There is a tax on everything-eye to railroad tickets Every one has to nay an income tax no matter how small the business The hotels are required 10 report the ar rival of each guest. how long he stayed and how much money he spent in the hotel and what prof, there was to the house Tn fact the people are crushed by the tax caused by the Russian war This war has brought them no benefits so far as I can see.
 There are very few horses in the country and practically no cattle. Milk and butter are almost unknown to the masses. The carts and burdens are all drawn by men. You will never for get your first rickishaw ride The rick ishaw is an overgrown baby buggy on two wheels about as high as our av-

lives, they are in many respects the most artistic in the world
 They have no Sundays. or rather no Sabbath as we observe It. Work con tinues as usual and the stores and shops are open the year around. except the first three days of the year, which is holiday.
 I went to a Japanese theatre In Kyoto. It would take a column 10 de- scribe it. There are no seats. Shoes. as usual when entering a house, are kept on the outside and checked if de- sired. We were provided with cloth coverings for our shoes, so were per- mitted to keep them on. The floors were covered with mats and divided in compartmeptsAby a small railing The natives, of codrse. all sat on the floor. Fortunately three chairs were found for us and I occupied one. During the play tea and other refreshments were handed around and all smoked their pipes and cigarettes The music was a joke and as far as we were concerned. so was the play
 Women never appear on tho stege in Japan. It Is considered immoral and their parts are taken by men made up as women. The popularity of play can be judged Lv the number Of shoes stacke ed on the outside. You may not know but Japsnse can take off or put on his wooden shoes without touching them with the hand and 1t comes as easy to them as taking off our hats Their shoes cost from 10 to 20 cents 2 pair There are no bar rooms except at tho hotels where the Americans and other foreigners stay, The Japanese drink is sake (sa -kyl, which Is brewed from rice and very intoxicating They never drink whisky. They only sell sake on the dispensary plan and it Is never drunk on the premises. After
