The Convert" toll is a gentle custom
in vogue on the continent of Europe
whereby nothing is thrown in at
service In restaurants. You are charg-
ed in separate items for the use Of
knife. fork. spoons. tablecloth and even
your napkin. For sugar 1t costs so
much, for cream so much more. for a
drop of ketchup or dash of vinegar,
for pepper and salt you pay SO much
more, and there's even an individual
tax for the bread you eat with your
soup.
Without by SO much as a nickel re-
ducing the prices for food as they now
stand on the bill of fare. Regain says
he will institute this toll on his return

HIGH PRIEST TO LIVE AGAIN.
Beheaded by Mistake, Tibetan Is Of
ficially Reincarnated.

A curious example of the Tibetan
and Chinese idea of justice and the be
lief in restoration of life through re-
incarnation came to light recently in
the case of n Tibetan HOtoOkatoo, Il
high priest of Buddhism. who lost his
head when he incurred the displeasure
of the since depOsed dalai lama. the
religious head OF the Buddhists who
fed from LasSa. the capital of Tibet
The beheaded high priest was rein
carnated and his titles and wealth re
stored This was ordered in an imperial
edict.
The edict sets forth that the HOtoo-
katoo-that is. one of the saints of
the highest class--was decapitated
three years ago. The throne finds now
that it was deceived by the dalai
lama, who secured the execution on
the ground that the high priest had at
tempted the formers life by sOrcery. n
profession I'm which these saints are
reputed to be especially gifted
The process of reincarnatiOn will be
similar to that of dalai lama In
fants OF certain blood displaying
signs that they possess the x1me sou
as that of the deceased will be assem-
bled and their names written upon
slabs of wood and sealed. These viii
be placed in large urn Of precious
metal. from which the high lama will
drew by chance one of the names. Tn,
identity Of the reincarnated will be
greeted by the populace with shouts
of joy.
The edict further provides that tn,
saint Dhood of the Hotookatoo shall
be restored and that his treasure con
fiscated by the dalai lama shall be re
turned TO the infant HOtOOkatOO
