Who sit en their heels in tbe open space of the floor, patiently watch for every opportunity to fill your cup with sake.

As this ceremony hag .to be gone through a greet many times drinking is often a mere pretense. Eat- ing is, however, but a small part of the entertainment. We must ne amused, and to amuse is the busiuess of the geishas, the licensed singing and danc- ing girls who are attached to every tea- house. But the singers at a Japanese dinner only take the part of the cnorus in a, •Greek play, and they sing the story which dancing girls represent or sug- gest by a series of gestures or, pos- tures. The dancers are splendidly dressed, and their movements are so interesting, so unlike anything seen in Europe, that we watch them with a curious sense of pleasure. . "LOST MONDAY." A Popular Fete Pay • In Belgium Whose Origin Is a DIVIlterY. ' The first Monday after Epipbany is a fete day throughout Belgium. "Lost Monday" it Is called; exactly, why tie one seems able to explain. The origin of the fete is lost in the legends of the middle ages, but the modern accepta--: tion of the day is •certainly lost to Pe one here. Like Mardi Gras, Lost Mon- day is a day of general ,merrymaking. Every cafe and restaurant in Brussels keeps "open house," and free drinks are on hand for all patrons of the es- tablishment, and as a matter of fact for many others as well -who are not , regular patrons. On Black Monday, then, as it is iron ically called by some of the natives not overenchanteci with the day, the - streets of Brussels are given over to the people, and the adventurZus. fon. (signer, who; ignorant •of the -country's customs, ventures out, - is ant to Ond that the Belgian populace Is no respect- ' (sr of persons. On this 'day the shopireee' ers, sighing behind their counters, find themselves conipelled to 'hand over, to their customers' servants a forced con- tribution, amounting to a certain per . centage of the year's, purchases, *bile the bakers, too, have a centeibution to offer in the shape. of 'cakes specially made for the occasion and offered as gifts to their clientele:" . • . In this manner the unique fete is per- petuated, though the calendar does not note in any particular manner the Arst Monday after Epiphany. • (1001) HEALTH.

"People often wonder how it is that a hog can $et all the kernel out of a Ineltor,tr nut, or any other kind of nut for that :natter, without wallowing ay of the shell," said a Mae from the ountry, "but as 4 matter of fact there Is nothing mysterious about the proc- ess. Mind you, hogs don't swallow any of theee barder substances. They get rid of them, and then it is just as easy for them to get rid of the shell of a nut as It le for a. man or A squirrel. You • might think because a hog crushes the nut into small fragments that he would necessarily swallow a good por- tion of the hull, But he doesn't do, any such thing, • "It Is a conceded fact among men • who know anything about.tbe subject that the horse le the most perfectly con.
