I must touch upon one feature of
western literature never to be recon
ciled with Japanese Ideas and cus
toms. Let the reader reflect for a
moment how large a place the sub
ject of kisses and caresses and em
brace occupies in our poetry and in
our prose fiction; and then let him
consider the fact that la Japanese
literature these have no existence
Whatever. For kisses and embraces
are simply unknown in Japan as
tokens of affection. If we except the
solitary fact thallr.r,. .v
like mothers aU over the world. Ud
nil li.. it it.. -
mr uiue one betimes.
After babyhood there is no more
ring or Kissing. Such actions ex
cept In the case of Infant are held to
be highly immodest. Never do girls
kiss one another; never do parent
kis or embrace their children
i. : w muin to wa.K. And
this rule holds good of all classes of
SAal.lt 0 . aW a ft a
irom iaa highest nobility to
Uie humblest peasantry. Neither
have we the least Indication through
