LIVING A LA JAPONAISE. Simple and Delightful Is the Housekeeping In Japan. I do not know of anything simpler and more dellgtful than housekeeping: In Ja pan—If you live a la Japonaiae. I myself determined to try It, and having: found a suitable spot to settle in. on the high- est hill In Toklo, I proceeded: to engage a native servant, who was also to Ifi my adviser as to how to furnish my es tablishment In strictly Japanese fashion. The furnishing was completed In less than ten minutes, and here are some of the principal items of which it consisted: Two foutangs, or thin mattresses, be tween which one lies at night, and a ma- kura, or wooden pillow, or rather an In strument of torture for the first few nights, furnished my bedroom; a hlbachl, or brass brazier, with chopsticks to stir the fire with, and a water kettle made tho hall rozy; and a little lacquer table, a foot square and about six inches high, with a couple of tiny little plates and a bowl made the dining room quite com plete and replete with every comfort. Two silk cushions were placed In the sit ting room for distinguished guests to sit "Ah," said I to my servant, "but do you not think that I shall need some thing more?" as to my European mind what I had purchased seemed somewhat insufficient to furnish a twelve-roomed house. “No, sir," said he In his broken English, "real Japan gentleman has no furniture." Upon which I began to feel rather sorry to have emulated the "Japan gentleman." Still I thought I would go on tor the fun of the thing, and, though I must con fess os I went round my new abode my rooms did not look over-furnished, I de cided to make the best of what I had got. It is astonishing with how little one can do if one tries and how much bttter penury Is than profusion. When a couple of day® had elapsed I almost began to feel that I had furnished my house too richly. I oould certainly have done with a deal ltss.—Fortnightly Review. A HOUSEHOLD TREASURE. D. W.
