Worlds Oldest NoUeI

A novel written In 1904 by a Jap
anese woman Is being translated by a
member Of the staff of the British mu-
scum. The novel is 100000 words
long, and Is said to be one Of the great
novels Of the world and the earliest
long novel in any language. The work
Of translation began last March, and
1t Is noted that the whole book will be
translated In five years time. Much
of the work has necessltated research,
as 1t Is written in old japanese, as I'M
Ineligible to the modern japanese
person as old English Is to the aver
age Briton. The novel was written by
a woman named Murasaskl In A. d.
1904, and has been read by few Eu-
ropeans, although 1t Is a common book
in Japan. It has 800 characters, who
have passed into legend. The story
tells of the love affairs Of GenJi, a son
Of the emperor.

man declared, with the air of one who
has completed his task and feels well
by 1t. He hesltated while gathering
his paraphernalia from the stand. He
opened the satchel, taking out many
pieces of glittering sllverware, and
