Fradette was agreeably intoxleated and the question amused him tre Inendously. "Why?" he roured "about the police raid at the Central Markets at daybreak this morning! What else?" He cuckled delightedly at the remembrance of the sight. "You know how those hundreds of seabby, ahlvering ruscals crawl out of the sewers and stews to warm their dirty hides on the market gratings?

He waited for the np-

AN EMPIRE

of 3,000 islands, stretching across thirty degrees of the earth's latitude, covering an area of 274,000 square miles, in which live 90,000,000 brown' and yellow skinned people speaking dialects, many of which even Tokyo cannot under- sland.

To this add the puppet pravinge, of Manchuikuo, with 32,344.000 iving In 460,000 square miles on the Soulet's back doorstep.

HISTORY.

Eighty years ago a Tace of rice cultivators, fishermen and feudat warriors, whose only weapons were bows and arrows and spears. To- day Japan, applying feudalism to the factory, is the most highly industrialised nalton in the world.

WEALTH.

A country rich in minerals-

gold, silver, zinc, copper, lead, iron, steel and coal.

Only one thing she tacks and does not own, and that is the most precious thing in the world for Japan oll. It comes to her from the northern half of the island of Sakhalin, whose cells she leases by treaty from the Sovici. That treaty expires this ucar.

One thing Japan, country of change, cannot alter is a curse laid on her by nature-earthquakes, Slic plans, builds, and grows; then her cities are laid in ruins, her subjects killed by thousands, her national work disorganised by the tremors of the earth. For Japan, wherever her Empire has thru itself, occupies the dangerous places of the world.

RELIGION

Chief has absolute freedom. forms are Shintoisin-ancestor worship-with thirteen. sects; Buddhism, with twelve sects; a sprinkling of all the sects of Christianity. There is no State religion and no State support.
