Japan, having an averag flour daily .vibrations, cannot b heavy concrete skyscrapers. Ho `there are of small elminad'e of w bamboo and tiles, built very light as .to suffer the least damage f earthquakes. The most eeonomic practical size of a house, accordin is about eight rooms and is two sto high. This is the size of house most c monly used all, over he country. I just the right size for the aver Japanese family, which consists abont five persons. Houses thus ing invariably small and the neuab of each family large, the custom many families s living in an apartus house ' is entirely unknown the Then, too, labor is cheep, and a fa ful and industrious'Maid-servant, w sill do cooking and house cleaning wall as serving and running erran &an be hired for less, than ten yen i month, . There exists a cordial re tiauship between the master and 1 servant, who is treated as a menib of the household. Japanese houses in cities are bu closely together, and, with the exc tion of large business firms, busine and dwelling occupy the same bui ing, usually a large front room bel devoted to business and the rear roon and upper part of the house for livi purposee. In residential districts the ousltir'ts of the cities, houses a surrounded by spacious gardens, i closed by wooden or bamboo fence oyer which may be seen pine. a maple trees carefully trimmed. Restful and Comfortable. The interior of houses used solely •for residential purposes is cozy, quiet and artistic. A Japanese parlor of or- dinary size is usually a square, sex yards by four, with a few walls and many sliding paper doors. These screens and doors noiselessly open in- to adjacent rooms or else cross a zee. andalr that overlooks a. little garden A little gay folding screen in a darker earner adds variety to the room and many windows with shoji, which are slender frames of wood, pasted over with thin, semitransparent paper, give enough 'light to make it restful and comfortable. The floor is elevate above the ground and is covered with tetanal, a thick soft mattress. In the well -to -deo households, when people sit on the floor they sit on a little square padded cushion about three feet square and three inches thick. Besides this there is a little hibachi, or brazier, placed in the ,entre of the room. Under the alcove there hangs a kakemono—a panel with a picture or a poen] in Chinese script—and there stands a vase of !lo;i•ers arranged in the orthodox fas- hion of Ikebana. There is no other furniture in the parlor, Tho general Ione of the room is that of neatness and serenity. Every, appearance of loudness is avoided. The walls are'of a warm but subdued color. The Jap- anese, as a rule, are not fond of var- nishing, and the wood is usuafly left In its native:grain. The panels, screens and shoji are changed according to the seasons in. order to weather them comfortably. The Japanese bed, consisting merely of a_ few thick comforters and a pil- low, can easily be made up in any room. It is considered a mark of hos- pitality in Japail to make the guest's bled in the parlor and put the room at his disposal. low the ably n o t miry even y of e o1* uild lues ood, so rani and gly, ries esu- t is • from headaches and from pains in tl age back and under the shoulders, n of was often so sleepless at night til be- when morning came I felt as tired ers of ent re. ith- ho as cls, )er La - be er Vigor AS Restored.
