A Dinner in Tokio.
The Japanese are somewhat shy of -
4191aying to strangers their quaint ways
and characteristic national Customs. So.
it happened that, phough for some years
a resident of the clonntry, I had not yet
seen a ceremeniousdinner in a: Japanese
home of the first class: Great was tny
pleasnre„ therefore, One morning, on re-
ceiving -an invitation to a gennioe-Japan-
- ese dinner from tan official of my ac-
quaintance.: It ts-as written in the na-
tive script, and couched in the most po-
lite and modestly self -depreciatory lan-
guage. • •
In preparation for the. great event I
purcha-sed a pti of chop -sticks, and
soon became reaso-iably expert in hand-
ling the two thin pieces of cedar -we
At four e'clock in the afternoon of
day fixed by the invitation, 1 orde
my "man -carriage," and rode throu
the dark, narrow, and winding ,stre
of Tokio. PasSingl throagh. a guard
gate and a, garden filled with exquisit
arranged Rowers and plants, I was
ceived by two attendants, who,. sitti
on the thick matting of the floor bow
their heads to the ground. to ke
this !matting which serves both
ma -pets- and chairs,perfectly cle
and neat is the especial pride of t
Japanese housewife. Courtesy requir

one -storied house, With its sliding -do -o
cove -red with thin: thin- paper in place _
witniew.. Thence I amushered in
the presence of the other- guests and
isay host and hostess, who welcome m
the one in Engiish, the other in her gl
native toague. Soon, like all the oth
guests -I an the only American prese
-I a.m seated on a handsome eushie
not, however, in the true Japanese styl
which consists in. sat* on the -fee
not in crossing them in front as th
Turks do.,
My hostess wore a long robe of blac
cappe, with an under dress of whit
The sleeves were long and, flowing, an
the graceful folds, were kept in place b
at wide girdle • of dark brocade. He
o-nly ornamentswere the tortoise -she
pins that - confined- her elaborately ar
• ranged hair. Her daughter, -a prett
girl of thirteen, was more brilliantly at
tired. Her hair glistened with oil, an
was adorned with scarlet crepe and si
ver ornaments. Rer dress, beautifull
embroidered in rich colors from dar
purplish. gray to lilac, was held by
girdle of .gay brocade- with a narre
Nand of red crepes Though buta ohild
the ovalsface, the creamy skin, and th
merry, bright eyes gave one a startlin
idea of an Eastern beauty.
After same conversation, during whic
tea was served in tiny cups, withou
milk or sugar, together with delicat
confections, dinner was brought on.
The sliding -doors were opened to form
one large- room, about which the guests
were seated in roast. Gayly dressed
singing and dancing girls brought in
large lacquered trays, and placed them
before the guests, beginning with the
-
most distinguished person present. The
trays were raised -a feW inches- from the
floor by feet. Each contained several
email china and lacquer bowls: In one
was rice, in another soup, while in front
were dishes of fish and many strange
eatables. A little cup for wine, a small
plate for pickles, and a pair of slender
ohop-sticks completed the arrangement.
After 8 panse and a; iow bow to the
hostess: we began to eat, while the girls
flew about bring new dishes, replenish-
ing the rice and the soup, and, above
all, plying the guest s1 with saki, the
national wine. .1 cannot begin to des -
tribe the different dishes, and, as they
were ;aII placed before me at once, I.
ooultinot tell which Was the soup and
which the deserts., Neither could I tell
whether any mor -el wOuld be sweet or
salt, pleasant or -our, i until I tried it.
What a mixture it seemed to me ! 1m-
egineka feast with no knife or fork,
bread or butter, but with such delicacies
as mnahroem 'soup, plung shoots of
bambUe, leg of cuttle-fish, roots of lotus,
and lilt,- bulbs, not to mention more
oonuntmplace articles,. such as pit:kW
plumS„ with birds, chickens, potatoes',
. beaus of all kinds, and other_ things,.
that 1 am sure were never tasted in
America. It was to Me a least mentally
rather than bodily, for though the tiny
bits leaked tempting, 1 could not coax
them '4.1) to my mouth; in spite of my
previous praytice with chop -sticks.
!Rut no one- noticed my failures,. paid
I swallowed my ehagrin together with
my soup, the bowl of, which I could
raise to my month and thus appeasemy
appetite.
Dinner was about half over when the
sliding -doors on one side were opened,
disclosing musicians and two of the
dancing -girls, who were Soon delighting
us with their graceful movements.
Each held a fan of brilliant colors, and
the long rich robes, with flowing
sleeves, showed to advantage as the
girls kept time to the monotonous music
in ever-changing graceful postures.
During the dinner we had several dances,
making pleasant pauses between the
coursee ; and after the trays and dishes
were earried out more daneing and
music followed. Finally a hired story-
teller,: such as abesincl'in Eastern coun-
tries:, was called in, arid began a long
narrative, with amusing gesticulation.
From the noise of the crowded roam I
was led by my hostess to the lovely
garden: with its -pond, its. tiny bridge; its
narrow path, and curious dwarfed
trees'. Thence we 'went through the
daintyhouse, where ! I was shown.

rare porcelain that would.have.delighted
the heart of a collector..
K tiowing that the parlor 'would still ,
be full and that the merriment might be
ke_pt up until midnight, I begged my
bo. -,t and hostess to let inc take myleave.
While my s'Orrieiesho was being called,
my ht:use slipped' away, and, returning,
piaee'i in my hand a little bundle wrap-
ped in Solt paper, which she asked rue
to,take as a remembranee. It proved to
1,y a present of some value ---a, coral pin

was not the only present I took home,

were sent with me. A present of this

Habits of Plants and nsectS.
SOME OF THEIR ECULIARITES—TAK-
ING OS NEW HABITS -CURIOUS OASES.
We are accustomed to think of the
habits of plants and animals as fixed, the
same to -day as they were 100 or 1,000
years ago, and to remain' the same for
an indefinite future. Such a supposition
is incorrect, and cannot be held bythese
familiar with the life histories of plants
and animals. It is a common occurrence
for animals and plants to take on ne*
4
change in the surroumlings. In the ease
of animals, it is often brought about by
new food beiug presented, on which
they obtain more congenial subsistence.
The common notion that nature provides
for animals the food most conshenial to
them, finds here a strong reblatation. •
Every farmer's boy has .observed that
birds and rodents forsake their natural
food for more congenial fruit or grain.
They may also have noticed the same
with insects.
One of the most marked instances ! of
an insect thriving and rapidly multiply-
ing on new food, is that of the potato
beetle confined to the wild solanums of
Colorado, the potato beetle inoreased
slowly and was scarcely known even to
entomologists. The insect was found
years ago by Dr. Say, who made a jour-
ney across the Rocky mountains, and for
many years it was considered one of the
rarest of our insects., When the culti-
vated solarium 4the potato) reached Col-
orado, the obscure beetle fOund more
congenial food, and it multiplied amati-
ingry. An instance nearer home is that
of the apple maggot, which in many
parts of the eastern States attacks tue
apple in much the.same manner as -the
better known apple worm or codling !
moth. This insect has long been known
as living on. the wild thorn -apples, but
about twenty years ago it suddenly ate
tacked the cultivated apples on .8 Ver-
mont farm. 'It- spread rapidly, and • is
now widely distributed. It is probable
that the insect, had never known the
superiority of the cultivated. apple is an
article of food, until by chance some in -
di vidual one strayed to the orchard. Froin
that time a new habit was taken on.
Another instance iathat of the dreaded
"buffalo grub "," which attacks carpets
in the eastern states. In Europe whence
this insect was introduced, it was never
known to attack carpets. In this case
we can not determine just why the insect
has taken on its new habit, for carpets
are probably no better articles of food:
than clothes and leather, on which the
insect feeds in Europe. -There are per-
haps peculiar surroundings or parasites
which prevent it from attacking carpets
in its native home, or when the first
individuals reached. this country a carpet
may have been the first- available food'
presented, and the insect continued on
its new diet.
Plants often take on neva habits when
they are transported to foreign countries,
or disturbed by cultivation. The com-
mon showy wild touch-me-not, intro-
duced into England, produce only hid-
den or cleistogarnous flowers An insig-
nificant and harmless plant, which grows -
in our ditches and ponds, was introduced
into Englaed about forty years ago, and
at once became a great nuisance. It
soon spread so rapidly as completely to
obstruct waterways, and expensive
methods had to be employed to keep it
in check. This plant is the common
ditchmoss or Anaoharis. Some of our
native plants, instead of b.eing extermin-
ated or driven into copses and fence -
rows by cultivation, have become ag-
gressive weeds. A notable instance .of
this kind is the horse -nettle of the cen-
tral and southern states. This has be,
come a serious pest. The slender -leaved
Hilenium of the southwestern states is
now following Texan ea.ttle northeast-
ward, and has become established in
some of the northern states. it is not
certainly known that the Canada thistle
was introduced into this country from
Europe. It appears to be wild in north: -
ern states and Canada, and it may have
taken oa a vagrant habit when disturb-
ed by, cultivation. -L. H. Bailey in
Country Gentleman.

Paper used in making Slippers.
Paper slippers are the latest form in
which paper is introduced in new inven-
tions. A patent has been taken out for
a system of manufacturing slippers,
sandals, and other covering
for the feet ont of paper.
Paper pulp, or papier-mache, is
employed for the upper, which is meuld-
.ed to the desired form and size, and a
sole is protided made of paper or paste-
board, leather -board, or other suitable
paper material, which is united to the
upper by Means of cement, glue, or
other adhesive material. The upper is
creased, ernbossed, or perforated at the
instep and sides, which renders them
somewhat pliable and prevents their
cracking while in use.-Dernoresi's
Monthly.
News Notes.
-Hannah Sands, an old ladydiving at
Rye, Westchester county, New York,
was supposed to lie very poor and died
last fall. Search among her effectss
brought to light $400,000 in money and
bonds sewed up in an old skirt.
-A large number of landlords in
West Clare, Ireland, hhve made reduc-
tionain their rents. The rents on the
Browne estates were- reduced 40 per
cent., and on the O'Kelly estates 30 per
cent. Colonel Stewart made a reduc-
tion of 20, and Captain Morgau of 15'
per cent. The tenants generally are
. .
pasang.
-The grain elevators in middle and
northern Minnesota and Dakota are
overflowing, ,and :3,000 -cars of ,wheat,
billed to..1lieneapo1is, cannot be brought
into that city because the- trausfer roads
cannot handle it. There is a -great
blockade of businesa in the city. There
are now in store at'al inneapolis, •St.,
Paul and Duluth 11,207,324 bushels of -
wheat, making, with 21,746,000 bushels
in the country elchator, a total of !:32,-
953,324 bushels now in store in Minne-
aota and Dakota. •
