At least two hours before the husband is awake she is up and prepares the breakfast. The Japanese husband never cooks his own breakfast, and it is an unpardonable disgrace for a wife to be in bed after her husband is! up. Generally the wife "goes to bed after' her husband and is up hours be fore him. The Japanese breakfast is not so easy to prepare as the breakfast of this country, as there are no "break fast foods." To prepare a good Jap anese breakfast takes at least one hour and a half, and even with the help of several servants . it cannot be done more quickly. t Before the head of the family is up all rooms should be swept, furniture dusted and all wooden parts of the house cleaned with wet cloths. ,And the garden; should be,, swept' and .wat ered (every, house , in . Japan has a garden). In some families they take a bath before breakfast The wife should see every morning, that the wa ter is properly heatpd for the bath and that, the bathroom and tub are clean. ... , ,, : ,; To provide the I anally with enjoy able meals it is'-nepessary for the Japanese housekeepers to do their own-marketing. 'ACUrtheir morning toilet they visit groceries, fisbmarkets and mcatshops to select 'the best , of everything. They use in Japan very few canned goods, aad everything i3 cooked at home. , Every day in the vweek including Sunday is the washday in Japan. The only day in the year that they do not wash is New Year's day. During summer they chang,j,underwear and dresses every day and Hn better fam ilies twice a day. That leaves bun dles of things to be washed. daily. It is not their custom to send their washing to laundries everything is i washed at home. The Japanese require a great many kinds of different clothes (according to the occasions when they are worn) and there are four kinds of clothes for the four seasons of the year. It is an enormous task for the mistress of a house to plan, to buy material and to make the clothing. In ordi nary families they do not have clothes made by dressmakers, . except formal dresses and clothes for special occa sions. Every spare moment of the Japanese wife is spent in sewing or in planning clothes for the .members of the family. It is the duty of a Japanese wife to entertain all guests who visit her house, and whenever a dinner or sup per is served to the guests it is the mistress who serves it when the vis itors are guests of the family or friends of her husband. All such dinners are cooked at home under the direction of the wife, as there is no delicatessen store In Japan. It is ihe custom to entertain guests at home and not at hotels or restaurants. Sundays are not different from week days for Japanese wives, although husbands do not generally work on Sundays. On the cotnrary, Sundays are the busiest days -for the Japanese mistresses, as on these days guests will generally come, and three hie meals must be cooked; while on week days there is usually a light luncheon at noon Exchange.
