Tho fact naturally .strikes tho Yankees as peculiar, und tho following is from a recent insuc of tin American paper: — Does tho hammer never fall upon a thumb In Japan? Do insistent bill collectors never come In Japan? When they think they've got downstairs And the bottom's far away, If tho Jap man never swears, Oh, I wonder what they say In Japan? Do tho people never chance to step on tacks In Japan? Do they never gob their fingers caught in cracks i In Japan? j When they don new clothes and find ! At tho office, far away, That they've lelt thoir koys behind, Oh, I wonder what they say In Japan?
