The proofs are sung aloud by one reader to another, thus adding to the confusion of weird sounds already reigning in the room. The compositor seats himself at a little table, upon which are spread forty-seven Kana characters. As he receives copy he. cuts it into small strips, handing each strip to a toy. This boy marches along the room un- til he has finally been able to collect from a number of cases arranged in files down the room the difierent ideo- graphs desired. About six or seven boys are thus employed in the aver- age Japanese composing room running hither and thither. As they go their rounds in search of the ideographs they keep up a dirgclikc chant, which would certainly be very trying to the nerves of any but an oriental. When the boys have collected all their ideographs they place them be- fore the compositor. who then has re- cour‘seto a pair of goggles in order There are 4,000 or 5,000 of these ideographs in everyday use. The compositor must therefore be some- thing of a scholar, in the oriental sense, to be able to recognize the characters at sight.

In other words, they do not, as we, write as they speak. This proceeding requires the printing of their journals in two languages, the “Kana” and the square characters serving as a key to the other. These square characters are modeled on Chinese ideographs, a jumble of geometric figures, crosses, etc., presenting a picturesque zigzag effect. He Has Troubles of His Own In His Composing-Room.
