TO
MY HUSBAND.


Clad in native costume.

Many have been before me, and the themeof this volume can hardly be called new, forJapan has been viewed from every side andthrough all kinds of eyes. This, however, hasnot deterred me from jotting down a fewobservations and experiences of my own, hopingthat in them my readers may feel somerays of the Orient sunshine and beauty.

I desire to thank Mr. Burton J. Hendrickfor the kind and sympathetic aid given uponthe manuscript.
