JAPANESE ODDITIES.
Japan, which already emancipa
ted women, its politicians, its
demagogues,and even its anarchists
has, says a writer in the Revues
des Revues, nevertheless kept in
tact a host of oddities which, in a
certain respect, are stranger still
than those of the Celestial Empire.
The follo.wug are some of them :
While we write from the left to
the right the Japanese write from ;
right to left. In writing, we form
horizontal lines, while the Japanese
make perpendicular ones. AJapa,)
liese book begins where ours ends
and, consequently, when we read a
book we turn the leaves from light
to left; but the Japanese are forced
to turn them from left to ri-.htJ

great satisfaction of all present.

In meeting a person, we turn to

There is still another trait of

Japanese from us Western people.
We sp*ak like true debruchees,
while the Japanese abstain from
immoral language and prefer to it
more or less immoral acts.
