House Of the Dalai Lama.

The Dalai Lama's late temporary
residence at Kalir1pong, tks Bhutan
Durbar house, is now occupied by
Raja Ujen Dorjee's sister, the Kazini
Wangmola. The Lama's three rooms,
the audience chamber, sitting room
and bedroom, are just as he left them.
Hundreds Of butter lamps lie about
on tables and mantel shelves and, the
windows being closed, the smell Of
rancid butter is sickening. A large
shrine is being erected in the Lama's
bedroom. This room will thus be-
come a kind Of holy of holes in the
estimation of the northern Buddhists.
The dais in the audience chamber is
beautifully painted in Tibetan FASH
ion, with gorgeous colored silk can
opy overhead
Colored Chinese silk canopies were
also hung above his bed and couch.
There was also some fine European
furniture in all the rooms. The name
Of each room was written on the Intel

acters.-Japan Advertiser.

WILL USEISTAMPS
GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP OF
THE TELEGRAPH SERVICE
NEXT IN ORDER.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Dec. ~
Soon Uncle Sam will have another use
for his stamps. You know, they are
good now on letters and packages
parcel post, you're learning to say.
All right, it's working and making
money for the government.
Now IL the plans of Representative
Lewis OF Maryland can be carried out
the government will send kilograms
yes, and deliver them too-for you.
You can stamp your message, just
as you would a letter, only with more
stamps, and send IL to the nearest
United States telegraph office. The
courteous, efficient government en-
ployes will do the rest.
All this. Of course, is yet in the en-
bryo. No one knows just how long II
will take TO carry out the plan by
which the government may take over
the telephone lines or the country
and convert them into a great and
efficient telegraph system. For that's
the plan OF Mr.. Lewis. and he believes
the telephone wires can be made to
carry kilograms.
This plan for government owner
ship OF telegraph and telephones was
made public this week by Mr.. Lewis,
father OF the parcel post. BY the post
age stamp plan OF paying for mess
ages he hopes to eliminate the many
accountings in handling kilograms. In
case OF collect messages postage due
stamps could be affixed. lie has con-
ferred with President Wilson and
Postmaster General Burleson. both
OF whom favor his plan.
Under the Lewis plan the govern
ment IL to go into the telegraph busi-
ness and handle individual messages
The federal system Is to be set up by
attaching te%legraphers' instruments
to the telephone wires and using the
telephone copper circuits for both
kilograms and verbal conversations
by eliminating the purchase OF the
telegraph companies II Is estimated
that the cost OF the government add
ing wire communication to the post
office department machinery will b.
reduced by 100000, 900. An outla,
OF less than 5000. 900. 600 will bo re
quired to purchase the telephone sys
tenn OF the country. II Is believed.
Mr.. Lewis has collected the seven
teen or eighteen countries concern
ing which data the United States
with privately owned systems, top
the column for high tolls. The aver
age cost OF calls In foreign countries
owning their own lines, In from fiv
mills to one cent per message. In tn
i. United States the average cost OF tn
Bell system is more than " cents
message and for the independent line
about one cent. The American lon
: distance rates are enormous In con
: parison with the European rates. ]
many instances they are six times q
high. A telephone conversation for
distance OF three hundred miles
costs 80 cents IN Europe and $50
this country.
