MAGIC MIRROR OF JAPAN,
At a roeent meeting of the German
Asintio Bociety of Japan a paper was
oad by Dr. H. Muraoka, of Tokio, on
the magicmirror of Japan. 1t is generally
supposed that its magical quality was
discovered only recently ; but it was,
says Dr. Muraoks, known for a long
time in Japan. Old ladies have told
him that in their youth, 50 years since,
they frequently noticed, when at toilet,
that the reflection of the sun from the
mirror on the wall or ceiling contained
the figures or letters on its back. Itis

BEGGARS,
All the members of this respectable
fraternity have their regular ‘beats.
The blind and lame beggars, with the
wheezy two-organs and eranky accor
deons, all have their corners by n tacit
understanding among the * profession ;"
and if the blind man should “see” the
lams man encroaching upon his
“beat,” there would doubtless be »
fight or foot-race. Beggars are found
in front of all the uptown hotels : each
one having his regular hotel square.
They are there about meal time, in all
their lonthsomeness, under the mistaken
idea that people are generally in the
best inmorafter eating, and consequent-
ly the most libernl. Those who eat at
high-priced restaurants and European
hotels are generally thinking of the
protective tariff ch:orges are in no
humor to bled again. After dinner the
beggars leave their beats on a roaving
commission, and roam at random on
Madison and Fifth avenues like a blind
freight train. They manage to get to
the theatres about the time they are
ont, and “work” the emerging crowds
for all they will stand. They know
that a man is more liberal, or rather
fooli hly liberal, when with a lady,
specially if the couple are not married.
jut citizens who know these whinning
imposters, do not consider it a lack of
charity to refuse them. But a stranger
frequently gives, tearing his lady friend
would deem him an *‘ unfeeling fellow ”
to refuse. They then lie in
at the restaurants until the last
theatre goer has gone home. Beggars
make from two to five dollars a day.
They ask for ** only a penny ” but rarely
less than a nickel Citizens
whose sympathies are aroused, but whose
doubts of their sincerity are searecely
removed toss them a penny. Strangers
give a nickel or tem cents; frequently
weelerners, to whom begging is some-
thing new, toss the mendicantan quarter
or even a half dollar, and regard the
look of surprise from the bystanders
as a compliment of their generosity,
rather than to their credulity. In the
lower portion of the city, especially on
Sixth and Tuird avenues, the beggars

receive
their entreaties and invaribly insulting
when refused. Perhaps it is owing to
their desperstion, They get compar-
atively few pennies, snd very rarely
more than a penny from any one giver,
They are met at the doors of business
places with a cool reception ; and at the
residences they do not fare much better.
It mainly depends upon the frame of
mind in which they find the servant
girl and the condition of the pantry.
