THE NEW HOME

Tokyo. It may be true enough that tho Japanoso lead "tho simple life." It Is, howovor, no easy matter for the foreigner to adjust himself to Its simplicity. It has taken us, in fact, throe weeks to do so. Our doslro to bo within easy reach of Asakusa rendered tho securing of a house somewhat difllcult. Friends Insisted that neither in Asakusa itsolf nor in the neighborhood of Uyeno park were sanitary conditions of tho bc'Bt. They said thnt tho neighborhood of the university, high and well drninod. was tiio nearest to bo considered. But houses in that neighborhood nre not easy to secure. Kot infrequently people wait for months bofore a satisfactory one is to bo had. Hut my friend Nagai's sister's husband, living in that district, offered to do his best to find a place for us. Meantime wo stayed at our little Hotel Kunikonlya, where everything was comfortable and purely of the country. Finally word came from Hasegawa that a house was ready for our Inspection. The first impression was unfavorable. The house was much smaller than wo desired and tho space available for gardening connected with it limited. Anxious, however, to make our settlement as soon as possible, we agreed to take It It Improved upon acquaintance, and a little experience almost seemed to show that it had been constructed with reference to our needs. Mr. Nngal and his sister wero good enough to go shopping with us. Of couroe we bought no European articles, and our purchases included only articles of immedlato and pressing need. We have two sets of tables, one for ordinary use, the other for occasions

of ceremony. The former consists of brown wood traps a foot or so square nnd raited eight Inches high above the floor. Each person of course has his own table, so our common outfit cares for ourselvos and a single guest The other set consists of five square black lacquered trays, which set directly on the floor. Five seems to be the definite number which the Japaneso consider sultnble for a social occasionand food trays, tea cups. lacquered bowls, and all such things are regularly mado up In sets of five. Plenty of these in variety and chopsticks made up our table equipment In addition to the things necessary for meals, thero was tho tea outfit of a teapot, hot water kettle, waste bowl and five cups. It is necessary in Japanese households to serve tea to every guest who may drop in on the most casual errand. Then there was of course the tnbaco bon, with Its burning charcoal and bamboo spittoon, for the convenience of smoker guests. The nctunl cooking outfit was beyond us, and was left entirely to the cook, who, 1 fear, bought a motley outfit, ruined by European Influence. Eating and sleeping being the two ultimate necessities, the remaining shopping was devoted to the matter of bedding. Bedsteads of course do not exist In our household economy. Thick quilts are laid upon tho floor at night nnd a warm comfortable Is laid over the sleeper. Pillows are hard nnd solid rollers filled with rice chaff covered with volvot and protected by a cotton slip or cover. The sleeper wears at this season of the year a light cotton kimono; In winter he has an extraordinarily thick nnd heavy qulltey garment which completely covers him nnd extends well below the feet Having moved In. we complied with ordinary custom by sending osoba to our neighbors. This caused a sensation nnd made n good impression, as it was not expected that "the foreigner" would pay attention to the local custom. Our house Is situated nt the end of a little blind lano bordered by great nedges. There arc thus neighbors on ,

each side of us and in front upon the street where our lano ends. We therefore had to send osoba to the two neighboring houses on our right nnd left, and to the threo houses In front of us, and also to the agent from whom the house 1b ronted. We stopped nt the osoba shop on our way back from shopping. They told us that elegant custom demanded that we should send three "pieces" (three square wooden trays piled one upon the other with a wooden cover on top of all) to each house. It was possible to satisfy by sending those which cost three sen (1 cents) apiece, but If we were willing to pay the extra price, they could send osoba at seven sen apiece which would delight the neighborhood. We ordered the best sent, and that an extra outfit of four "pieces" should be delivered at our house so that the cook's heart and stomach might be gratified, and that we ourselves might have a chance to Bee what It is like. It was promptly delivered, and we found that osoba Is a very 6lender vermicelli, delivered hot to all the bouses, accompanied by plenty of sauce or soy. Within the next 24 hours each and all of the favored neighbors and the renting agent made their formal acknowledgment and thanks to the newcomers. Thus we moved Into our new home. At first everything was in charge of the old cook. His wife, who was to be alao in our employ, did not come for several days, as she was completing a term of service elsewhere. The old man took good care of us, and long before she came we had become accustomed to our mode of living. Sweet beans, rice, flsh in variety, pickles of all kinds, the badly smelling dalkon (a gigantic radish) and all the great variety of soups so dear to the Japanese, had become familiar to us. We had even mado a variety of experiments on the whole successful upon raw fish. It Is true that one meal a day wo partook of more or less European food bread, butter, milk, eggs and fruits. But on the whole, we had done famously. When the old lady appeared, however, all changed. Both of the old "people havo worked for years for American and European families, and know what's what It was with difficulty that the old man hnd submitted so promptly to our orders. Tho old lady took control, and it would have been difficult for anyone to find much left of Japanese food In our daily menu. It is true that one or two dishes perhaps in ench meal were somewhat as they should be. We have been now in revolt for several days, and. In time, no doubt shall again restore conditions to their proper state. Just now our eating is half and half. Our household is yet far from complete. Our old man and woman nre old friends. In 1904. we saw them when we stopped with Clement in whose employ thoy were. Their oldfashioned simplicity and their homely Japanese style won us. and for all the period of planning our present enterprise tney nave neon Kept in mind. He I is little, old. lively and mercurial. He I laughs and talks Incessantly. He is half blind. He has hnd his ups and downs In life, but he knows what Is good custom among his people, since he has como In contact In his younger days with important personages His wife is a simple country woman. She dresses In the old style and has rustic simplicity She Is accustomed to run things. Tho three "foreign" services she has filled have been satisfactory to her employers, hut only from th'e fact that they have wisely capitulated. She puts a liberal construction upon her service nnd duties, and without hint or direction from us understands thnt she Is housekeeper, laundress, tailor, repairer and goneral manager. Neither of them talks English, and

we speak no Japaneso. bo that mcani of detailed communication are lacki Ing. We sadly nood a boy as general senant. but bo far have not secured one Third in our list of helpers Is Mr. Aral, our general adviser He knouu the things of old Japan. He is ; conservative, yet enters heartily into , our schemes. It Is hie duty to make nanEMnent8 He ! not Interpreter. , for he knows too little English; but he knows what 1 lit for us to buy.

I stumme lor me U ! "avp n wtro tho things we need are located. It Is his duty to find such people as we need to deal with. Last ly we have a reader and literary assistant lu a student from the university. Kajlwara. who knows English pretty well, but who know little of! the things of old Japan. If oao could fuse him and Aral together the result would be a fairly competent helper. Nor was it a simple matter, either, to secure my Japanese dress. We had supposed that wo would go to oi e of the many ready made clothing establishments nnd select a suit In a few minutes. On the contrary It was a matter of three hours to arrange tho business. Everything had to be made to order, and the greatest care was taken in the selection of materials. We went to the finest department store, in Japan. Less extensive than many such establishments In the United States, in its character, its enterprise, and the quality of Its goods it is quite comparable to our Marshall Field's. Not only quality but fitness for ray purpose were demanded In every piece of goods purchased by Mr. Aral. The hnori, or great outer garment the kimono, the juban (or Inner kimono) and the haknma or widelegged trousers, were each of different material. Not only did these materials ha-e to bo carefully selected, but the question of lining for each was equally important. Even our bathtub has been a matter of serious concern. You know, of course, that in Japan the bathtub is of prime importance. Every man, woman and child in the household should take a hot bath daily. The tub Itself Is made of wood, and is a remarkable piece of cooperage. It contains a little stove for heating the water. Frequently this Is so situated that the occupant of the tub runs some risk of serious burning. The charcoal used in heating the water gives off fumes, and Europeans at least consider this matter a somowhat serious one. Accordingly my advisers insisted that the tub 6hould be made to order, first, that It might be sufficiently large for its occupant second, that risk of burning bo avoided, and third, that fumes be carried off. The cooper, upon inspecting j our proportion decided that the tub ' should be three Inches longer and three Inches higher than the regula- ( tion. We had been told that Its cost if made to order, would be about ten j yen. After making his Inspection tho I cooper stated that the price would be ! 16 Instead! Such are the dlsadvan- j tages of being great As a fact there 1 is some question whether the bathtub ' may not bankrupt us. When It had , been built, we received a bill of IS yen. which was paid under protest, but it ' was assumed that the matter was a j closed incident Next day. however, a ' new hill appeared for 2.50 yen. This , j was settled grudgingly. Next day the ' j cook announced that the tub wai so larjre that a step ladder was necessary for proper use of It! When paid for. j this will make the bathtub, which was j to bare cost ten yen. a matter of more J than twice that sum. Personally. I i hate it. for It looks as if it might be I suited for the swimming place of elel phants. and It is humiliating to think : that such a construction was neces- I sary in this land of little people. It is. however, a work of art with neat Joinery and a smokostack for carrying off the death-threatening fumes. Bath customs for the Japanese demand that In the early evening tho tub should first be used by the master of the house; when he has bathed the other members In order of age or importance follow him. bathing In tho same water he has used. This sounds pretty dreadful, but in a land whereevery Individual takes a scalding bath daily, it Is actually not so bad. No soap whatever is permitted In the bathtub, but the person bathing Is soaped and scrubbed outside and doused with hot water thoroughly. So we are really launched. When we enter the house our shoes are laid aside that mattings may not be destroyed or Eolled. Wo 6it on cushions, kneeling with feet crossed under us; we write at little desks a foot in height; we eat at little tables brought in for Individual use while the servant kneels upon the ground before us, watching to satisfy our needs; at night the quilts, pillows nnd kimonos are brought out from the closets where they have been stored during the day and spread upon the floor. Guests are required to submit to native regulations. Our old woman Is under orders to serve tea and cakes to every visitor man, woman, or child. Both she and tho old cook watch every movement with care, and nothing pnlns them more than when the master Is guilty of some awkward ness. or falls to recognize his dignity. While we cannot understand their words we know qulto weil when tho guest whom they announce Is ono whom we should meet upou tho threshold and there are few such We see little of our neighbors, but when we meet them, all Indulge in great formality. Next door tho mother and two little girls are always dressed In brilliant colors. We meet them ns 1 1 A . l. wo come anu go. nnu snu uns laugui tnc attic ones to bow to ua In proper style.

An Easy Fit ? A number of years ago there lived In northern New Hampshire a notorious woman-hater. It was before the day of ready-made clothing, and want- . Ing a new suit, he was obliged to take tho material to the village tailoress. She took his measurements, and when sho cut the coat, mado a liberal al- ' lowance on each seam. The man's dislike of women in gen- . eral prevented his having a fitting Ho took the finished garment without " trying it on. It was much too large. ' and his disgust was apparent in the answer he made to the friendly loafer ! on bis first visit to the post office, when he wore the despised article. "Got a new coat, Obed?" said the loafer. "No, I hain't!" said Obed. "I'Te got seven yards of cloth wrapped round me." Youth's Companion.

There is one man in the United States who has perhaps hean more women's secrets than any other man or vornan in tbo country. These secrets are not secrets of guilt or shame, but the secrets of suffering, and they have been confided to Dr. It. V. Pierce in the hope and expectation of advice and help. That few of these women have been disappointed in their expectations is proved by the fact that ninety-eight per cent, of all women treated by Dr. Pierce have been absolutely and altogether cured. Such a record would be remarkable if tho cases treated were numbered by hundreds only. But when that record applies to the treatment of more than half-a- million women, ia a practice of over 40 rears, it is phenomenal.

and entitles Dr. Pierce to the gratitude accorded him by women, as the first c! specialists in the treatment of women's diseases. Every sick woman may consult Dr. Pierce by letter, absolutely without charge. All replies are mailed, sealed ia perfectly plain envelopes, without any printing or advertising whatever, upon them.
