JAPANESE REVERE RULERS.

Object to Having Stamps Bearing Like.
ncsscs of Departed Oacs Cancelled.
Private letters from Kioto bear proof
that the Japanese have their own way
of doing things. They recently had
new issue of postage stamps which bore
portraits of two of the princes who died
in the recent war. Stamps of two md
of five sen were to be issued. In the
United States one portrait would have
been on the two-scn stamp and one on
the iivc-scn stamp, but in Japan it was
thought that thisswould BE dscrm-
mating against the memory of the one
pictured on the lower denomination.
This is why philatelistA find that
there are two new two-sen and two new
1ivc-sen stamps - each denomination
having one kind in memory of each
prince. But even this careful arrange
ment did not prevent n new trouble.
Some conservative japanese IRE con-
tending that it borders on dislespect TO
the imperial family to polute their
pictures with saliva and then to blotch
them with ink in the process of cancella-
ton.
One man has declared in the Eapers
that he shall decline to receive any mail
matter bearing these stamps. Some
postmasters have requested that they
be allowed to put the canceling mark
only on the edge ot the stamp, so MS to
avoid defiling the princcly faces. 70
old-fashioEed Japanese it is especially
displeaslng to see foreigners putting
portraits representing men of divine
descent into their mouths and putting
them on the envelopes with as much
indifference as we employ with tie

Grant on our stamps. Some japanese,
If they use the stamps at all, must
reverently lift them to their head care
fully wet the glue with pure winter
and then utter a prayer as they attach
