"One day Sir Arthur Sullivan was notified that his brother l-red was very ill. its made every alert to ranch the house where his brother was lying at the point of death. but arrived too late to see him alive.

" Tobi (tab-bee). socks of blue or white cotton cloth, are worn on the little feet. They are made like mu. lens, with a place for the great toe separate from the others. so as to al- low the strap which fastens on the clogs to pass between. The clogs are made of wood and have two little wooden pegs under the soles. high or low. accordi g to the taste of the wearer. but u either case capable of making a great clatter on wood. stone or pebbles. Fortunately it is not the custom to wear any footgenr besides the sticks in the house. The single strap divides into two parts. which para on each side of the foot and far- ten to the clog. These straps. or throngs on little girls’ clogs are some- tlmes gniiy colored. With but the fastening. it is an easy matter to take of! the clogs when entering the house and leave them on the veranda. and the custom is certainly conducive to tidineaa. it is a necessary custom. for the clogs would be ruinous to the hue, soft mats covering the floor. . Compir-xism is another important? and interesting point to the Japanese. girl as well as to her American and! European sisters. i l i e CHOP: All.
