Full than as the occasional scene Of Inn
perial visitations. Yesterday was not
one of its mirror days. It was ruffied
with a brisk breeze and Fuji was hid
den behind clouds when we arrived.
Our fishermen went of in q motor
boat, clad in padded Japanese coats
against the chilly wind. while I re-
manned ashore picture hunting. found
number, with playing children as sub
jects. had been given the direction
of "Fujisan," or ''Mr. Full" as the
mountain is called by most Japanese,
and occasionally I looked that way
through my glasses. For nearly an hour
the Grand Old Man" of the sky was
completely hidden from me. Then sud-
denly, while was peering through my
binocular, there came faint change OF
tone in the cloud above rounded
mountain top across the lake. At first
I thought it merely due to shifting OF
the vapor. Then 1t deepened, and while
looked another darker spot appeared,
close at hand. And then another, and
it became evident that was witnessing
Fuji in the act of awakening from his
sleep.
do not know whether would have
preferred to come upon Full fully in
view for my first vision of him, or to
see him, as I did, emerging from the
clouds. Inasmuch as the latter was my
introduction to him, think am glad

This morning awakened to the sound
of falling water. / knew that there
was a cascade just outside of my room,
a most picturesque addition to lovely
landscape, but this sound differed
somewhat from that of a waterfall.
It had an odd familiarity, and when
arose to investigate found that 1t
was rain, steady, heavy rain. 1t was
evident that there would be no ALL
day excursion to the five lakes OF FuJi
that had been planned, with 9 o'clock
start. That assumption was confirmed
at breakfast, when We were formally
notified that the day was unallotted.
And so here, at the heart of the cele-
orated Fuji district of Japan. we are
enjoying a vacation, SO to speak, from
sightseeing, whole day off," in
which to loaf or to write letters or to
read, or all three, according to taste.
I have elected to write, first of all to
bring my report of happenings up to
date.
Our departure from Toxic yesterday
morning was in the nature of an
affair We were escorted to the
train by several of our devoted associ-
ates of the 10 days of sightseeing and
social functions. Some of them went
even to the next station to stretch out
the parting. We had, as heretofore on
our railway trips, a reserved" car, and

accommodation throughout, to the
limits of the Japanese control and in
f1uence in Manchuria.
Our original program called for .
run to Atami, a seaside resort on
Sagami Bay, and then a motor run up
to this place. But it was changed to
take us of the train at Odawara, sew
eral miles nearer Miyanoshita, bringing
US here for luncheon. In that way we
made the trip easily, in less than 8
hours from Toxic, and had a delightful
combination of rural, seashore and
mountain scenery.
Miyanoshita, which means Below
the Shrine" is situated on q terrace
above the Haya River, at an elevation
Of nearly 1,400 feet. It is in the center
of the hot springs section. The hot
water supply of the hotel, the Fujiya--
which Is rated by experienced travellers
as the best in Japan, reputation which
1t Is not improper to broadcast mas
much as, apart from q few Japanese
inns, 1t is the only place of public
resort here-is brought in from one Of
these hot springs.
Yesterday was rainless but not wholly
fair. The sun was tickle and grew
feeble toward the afternoon. It was
not good "Fuji weather." All the way
up from Toxic we had been glimpsing
out OF the car windows and from the

Kawazii Sul;eyasu, the father Of the
boys, was treacherously murdered by
his kinsman, Kudo Suketsune, a high
vaSsal of Minamoto Yoritomo, who, at
the latters instigation, tried also to
kill the two fatherless boys, Juro and
Goro. Their mother married Soga
Sokenobu, who sent Goro, the younger
son, to Hakone Gongen to become a
monk, but the lad hated the calling and
escaped from the temple, firmly resolved
to join his brother in avenging their
fathers death. They pursued this pious
vendetta for Is years before its culmi-
nation. Yoritomo pitched his hunting
camp at the base of Mount Full bring
ing Kudo Suketsune with him. One
night the brothers sought and found
Kudo's tent, discovering him sound
asleep. Deeming it cowardly to stab
even an enemy in sleep, they awakened
him and after fierce fight put him to
death. Juro; then % years old, lost
tured and taken before Yoritomo, who
condemned him to death by having his
head hacked off with a blunt sword
Tora Gozen, whose name has been
preserved with those of the boys, was
q courtesan of the town of Oslo, near
Kozu, and the mistress of Juro. She
had faithfully aided him in his revenge
and became nun after his DEATH"
Note that the elder brother was only
% when he died in the fight with his
enemy and that he had been pursuing
the vendetta for 16 years. The samurai
spirit became active early in life in the
old Japan.
A little farther along the road is a
rock, standing on lower level, called
Nijugo Bosatu, or twenty-five Buddhist
saints" from that same number of
images carved on it in high relief Ira
dition says that these images were cut
in a single night by Kobo Daishi. who
was prevented from completing his task
by the rising of the sun, leaving the two
figures at the top unfinished.
Down the road a bit ahead, at a
higher level, is carved a huge seated
figure of Jizo, IL feet high, in re-

PROTEST PLAYGROUND
SITE ON BUSY CORNER
Thirty Fourth and Macomb Streets
Held Dangerous for Chill
drents Activities.

A strong protest against the estab-
lishment of childrens playground
near Thirty-fourth and Macomb streets
was made at a meeting of a score of
the residents of Cleveland Park before
the Board of Education in the Frank
lin School Building yesterday afternoon.
Conrad H. Syme, as spokesman for
the residents In the vicinity of Thirty
fourth and Macomb streets, denounced
the spot as one of the most dangerous
in the District of Columbia for a
children's playground, due to the heavy
volume of traffic that crosses the inter
section from both directions. There
have been five accidents in the neigh
borhood within the last two months, he
declared. Mr.. Syme also maintained
that there was no necessity for an addi-
tional playground since the one ad-
joining the John Eaton School, only a
block away, was sufficient.

to have had that vision. 1t was a slow,
mysterious process. Fuji was awakening
reluctantly. He would come out, and
then 60 back to sleep. At last the whole
line Of his broken crest was visible.
Then his right flank, which spread
down the side of the intervening noun
tain, came to view, and in few minutes
his left flank emerged likewise.
There was Fuji, precisely Gaping the
other mountain. Through the glass the
snow field of the crest was plainly evi-
dent, with deep shadows due to the
corrugations of the surface. Unfor-
tunately the sky beyond did not clear,
so that the white crest of Fuji did not
stand out vividly against background.
But there he was, and this evening when
the photographs are delivered will
know whether was so fortunate as to
catch him with my camera. 1t was a
long shot, and risky one, in the poor
light of q cloudy day, and without the
possibility of using color screen or
light filter to give the snowy crest a
| value against the gray sky.
So I have seen Fuji. This rain

Gates as of the ''typhoon" variety-may

district, which ends tomorrow afternoon,

clear days, from the decks Of incoming

tions were not good. But was re-

The road to Hakone is filled with in

but sufficiently tortuous to prevent any
ennui on the way. A short distance

color. Hundreds of azaleas and rhod-
odendrons blend into q picture never
to be forgotten.
This region is replete not only with
hot springs, but with shrines Of greater
or lesser significance. The roadside is
almost strewn with them, not the elab-
crate, highly colored shrines of the
Nikko area, not buildings, with priests
and bells. but roadside votive places,
stone images, carvings in the rocks,
pillars and monuments One Of these
places lies little way beyond the vii
lage Of Ashinoyu, tiny hamlet through
which the motor car twists as in a
maze. Here, close to the road, are
three small lichen-covered stone sobotas

In Washington for the past 20 years,

vised me to try the Herb Extract,
said it had done wonders for her
and she felt sure 1t would help me.
When she gave me the details of
how it helped her, said, Well, I
will try one bottle but have suf-
fered so long that I doubt If it will
help me very much The first bottle
proved to me that what she said was
true and now after taking three
bottles 1 am willing to admit that I
do not think it has an equal. Why,
for months and months I was in
so much misery I could not rest day
or night, my stomach seemed to be
full of gas, felt sore and was con-
tinually belching up sour bile,
there was a steady pain in my left
side just below the ribs, had severe
attacks of dizziness, spots seemed to
float before my eyes, head hurt all
the time, 7 was SO nervous I could
not rest properly at night and would
get up each morning with bad
taste in my mouth, tongue was al
ways coated and simply felt miser-
able. It was wonderful the way this
medicine regulated the entire diges-
tive system and can hardly de-
scribe the wonderful improvement In
my health, stomach no longer causes
me any trouble, every pain Is gone,
nerves are steady, and I no longer
have that disagreeable taste when I
get UP. I don't know of a single
