It need* no charcoal, no wood, no fire; simply place It on this cedar block and it will boil.” "WJjjuedld you get Itr” growled Hoga, An old man brought it this morning.” said the younger, ‘'and offered to sell it for 500 yen, hut I have no money.

Every one present was filled with aatonahment and Joy. and the funeral was hanged Into a great limiquct, w here no or drank *o much or laughed so loud a* Yada. Hoga bought the samlsen for 5,000 yen, and Wada went for another long jourBey. When next a neighbor died Hoga :o his house, laughing and singing, the floor by his head and began to is Wada bad done. Of course the nan did not stir, and all the relatives pon poor Hoga and U-at him for showing such disnwpcct to the dead. Now Hoga's anger against his brother w«s terrible Indeed.
