Exploring the Variety of Random
Documents with Different Content
Thus, as an old friend expressed it to me, all our modern
improvements such as tend toward enhancing the nation’s greatness
and wealth, have been assimilated. Japan, to-day, could no more do
without railroads, than we could do without them. It is the same
with telegraph and telephone and other inventions where steam or
electricity are the motive. The army and navy have been organized
according to the highest standards, and will keep pace with the best
of the world. Industries have been and are being organized, and
receive careful protection from the government. But in the home life,
the Japanese have turned back.
“The luxury of your homes,” said my friend, “tends toward
enervating the race. We do not need your furniture; it is expensive
and inelegant. We sleep upon our futon as well as you do upon your
spring mattress. In your clothing you are the slaves of a thing you
call fashion, and every year or oftener you are called upon to pay
tribute to it. Who ever heard of anything so foolish? Our clothing
keeps us cool in summer, and hot in winter. It is inexpensive,
becoming, and leaves our limbs to their natural action; what more
do we want? As to your food, I acknowledge that a meat diet is
more strengthening than our usual bill of fare, and most of us
indulge in it once a day. But to prepare dishes merely to tickle the
palate, is both foolish and wicked. We want no waste. That is the
reason why I prefer dressing in haori, hakama, and Kimono, and
why I prefer to live in a Japanese house. If I, or any other Japanese,
visit your country, we conform with your customs and habits,
because we do not wish to give offense. When you come here, you
bring your customs and habits with you, and parade them before us,
regardless if you give offense or not. I think in doing so, you act
wrongly or at least in bad taste.”
“You believe in doing at Rome as the Romans do,” I said smiling.
“But surely one can not always do so. Excuse me, but most of your
dishes are absolutely repugnant to me.”
“What does that prove, but that you are a slave to your stomach. Do
you remember when we first met? It is a long time ago, but I shall
never forget it. The impression of that day is still vivid within me. I
had heard that a barbarian had come to live in our next door yashiki,
and I wondered what sort of an animal he was. My father had told
me I must be very civil when I should see you, and, of course, there
was nothing for it but to mind. I had come from school when I heard
steps behind me and then somebody grabbed me and I saw you. It
was well that I did not wear my swords at that time, or we should
not be talking here, and Japan would have paid another indemnity.
You don’t know the fury you raised in me at your unceremonious
introduction. Well, you dragged me in your yashiki, and placed
bread, butter and sugar before me. Do you remember that, when
your kadzukai came in, I asked him what those things were, and
what you wanted me to do with them? He told me they were bread,
oil from the cow, (niku no abura), and sugar, and were there for me
to eat. Talk of repugnant! It was nauseous to me to think of such a
thing as eating ‘oil from the cow.’ But when I am in America now, I
enjoy my butter and sometimes help myself twice.”
“That may be,” I replied, “but for the life of me, I could not eat your
raw fish, and many other dishes.”
“Pshaw! It is on account of an imagination which we call prejudice.
You don’t possess the nerve to try them, and if you did from some
reason, for instance false shame, they would probably upset your
stomach. You could not turn my stomach in those days, child though
I was, but sometimes you tried me pretty severely. When I came
home that first evening, I told my father all about you, and if you
had heard my description, I do not think that you would have felt
flattered. But he told me to cultivate your acquaintance, and his
word was law.
“It took me sometime to grow accustomed to—to—, well, I shall
draw it mild, to your lack of manners and of good breeding. But
then, as my father explained to me, you were only a barbarian, and
without any education; and you were, or tried to be, kind; I
appreciated that. So you taught me English, and I taught you
Japanese, and you tested my self-control by the funny mistakes you
made. Let me see how long is that ago? Twenty-six years? How long
will it be before you can speak Japanese, do you think?”
“Come, that is rather rough on me,” I laughed. “I find I can get
along very well.”
“Yes? I always did admire my fellow-countrymen. They have now
another claim to my regard. I speak in Japanese with you for the
sake of old times; but, do you know that I sometimes need all my
equanimity to bear with the way in which you murder our language.
Sometimes you use expressions as if I were your superior in rank;
that is all right and proper; but when, a moment late, you hurl a
word at my head fit only for a coolie or a servant, I admire the
perfect control I have of my temper. No!” he continued slowly and
looking thoughtfully at me, “I don’t think you will ever learn
Japanese.”
“I am satisfied with what I know,” I replied, “but if my use of your
tongue shocks your ear, I am willing to converse in English, and I
promise you that I shall not criticize either your pronunciation or
grammar.”
He bowed ceremoniously and replied: “No, thank you! When I am in
the United States, or in England, I speak English and try to act as
regardless of the feelings of others as your fellow Anglo-Saxons act.
As soon as I begin to think in English, it seems as if I forget that I
am a Japanese gentleman.”
“You must have mastered our language better than I have yours,
then, for when I speak in Japanese I can never bring myself to use
those elegant circumlocutions which we call by a name which to us
has an ugly sound.”
This time it was my friend’s turn to laugh. “Do you remember when
poor Kato first came to see you? We were at our lessons, and he to
do you honor had spent a few days in learning the phrases: ‘I have
heard of your famous name,’ and ‘I am happy to see your face.’ He
came in and recited those two sentences in very fair English, I
thought. I see you jumping up yet. What a spitfire you were! Poor
Kato! He did not know what to make of it. You roared: ‘Now, what is
the use of talking that way? You never heard of my name, for it is
not famous, and you don’t care about my face any more than I care
about yours.’ Kato’s stock of English was exhausted, and he politely
requested me to come to his assistance. Well, I had manners if you
had not, so I told him that you were overpowered at the honor of his
call, and that this was your manner to invite him to make himself at
home.”
“So that was the reason that fellow bored me until eleven o’clock. I
owe you one for that!”
“Yes? We paid you foreigners well in those days, more than we could
really afford, but most of you were worth the money. Not on account
of the duties you performed, not always satisfactorily but generally
to the best of your ability, but on account of the never failing
amusement you afforded us. At a time when you thought yourself a
fair Japanese scholar I have heard you criticized right before you,
and you were as unconscious as a babe.”
“Don’t you think that you show by what you say the real difference
between you and our race. By your own confession, I showed you
kindness, and, my memory deceives me badly, or you reciprocated
to some extent my friendship for you. Yet you could stand by and
patiently listen to an adverse criticism of one who was your friend,
and, instead of resenting it, as I would have done in a similar case,
you could be amused by it.”
“Ah! but you forget. At that time you were still an object of suspicion
to us. Shimonoseki and Kagoshima were recent recollections, and we
were eating humble-pie. It is different now. We know your strength
and your weakness and we know also our own strength, and we can
magnanimously condescend to treat you as our equals. At that time
the whole nation dissembled; we hated you and every foreigner,
although we treated you so as to flatter your conceit. It does not
raise a people in its own eyes when it forces itself to discard, even
for a time, its national pride, and pretend to honor those whom it
despises and hates. I tell you, my old friend, I am proud of my
country and of my people. We passed through a fiery ordeal, and
came out purified. But I acknowledge also that the fire has left scars
which only time can heal. We are growing better, not worse. The fact
that we two still find pleasure in each other’s company proves that
we are better able to appreciate each other’s good qualities, and
that is a type of the feeling of Japan toward foreign nations.”

Section 2. Information about the Mission

of Project Gutenberg™
Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new
computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of
volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the

assistance they need are critical to reaching Project
Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™
collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In
2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was
created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project
Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the
Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your
efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the
Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3. Information about the Project

Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the
laws of the state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status
by the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or
federal tax identification number is 64-6221541. Contributions
to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax
deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. federal laws and
your state’s laws.

 Section 4. Information about Donations to
the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission
of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works
that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form
accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated
equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly
important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws

regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of
the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform
and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many
fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not
solicit donations in locations where we have not received written
confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine
the status of compliance for any particular state visit
www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states

where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know
of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from
donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot

make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations
received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp
our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current

donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a
number of other ways including checks, online payments and
credit card donations. To donate, please visit:
www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About

Project Gutenberg™ electronic works
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could
be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose
network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several

printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by
copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus,
we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any
particular paper edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™,

including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new
eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear
about new eBooks.
