NOTE.
According to Old Japanese legend, there
lived some thousand years ago, in a fish¬
ing village near Mio-no-Matsubara (a pic¬
turesque forest of pine trees on the sea
shore) in the province of Suruga, a young
fisherman whose name was Hakurio. One
day he passed the forest on the way home
from the sea, he saw a very strange robe
with beautiful wings hung on a pine
tree. For a few moments he looked at
the robe in astonishment, for he had nev¬
er seen such a robe before in this world of
ours. Finally he took the robe down.
He thought that he would take it home
as his treasure. At this instant there ap¬
peared a beautiful fairy, who said to Ha-
kurio that the robe was hers. She ask¬
ed him to return it. He did not agree to do
so, although he said to her, after a few
moments' conference that he would return
the robe if she would show him a dance
of heaven. As he returned the robe, she
put it on—and how gracefully she danced!
in heavenly manner and appearance, and
she ascended to heaven while Hakurio was
in rapture.

breadths, carefully filled with beautiful
tints and slight touches of gold, complete¬
ly forming a picture by the modulated
lines left uncut. It is undoubtedly a per¬
fect example of achievement in every
point—magnificence, solidity, decorative
skill and chromatic harmonizations. The
scene represents a garden party in Imper¬
ial Palace ground at the time of Tang
Dynasty, in the 8th century. On the cen¬
tre is a magnificent main hall connected
with corridors and bridges over an arti¬
ficial pond, to the other halls, pavilions
and arbors. There are several groups of
mandarins and court ladies both indoors
and out, occupied in different sports, such
as playing the game of "Go," composing
poetry, burning incense, enjoying the gar¬
den scenery, etc. On the border are
vases with flowers, incense burners and
