DIM LIGHTS FOR PARLIAMENT.
By the substitution of low candle-power electric lamps a lighting economy varying from 25 to SO per cent was effected at the House of Parliament (says a London paper). The only exceptions are the debating chambers of the Lords and Commons, where a. strong light ia needed. Many lights in the. already dimly-lit corridors and galleries have been cut off, and the House presents a rather gloomy appearance. As the result of striving for eoonomy in fuel, the House was left absolutely without coal on a recent occasion. Mr. Lloyd George, always, economical, has further cut'down the fuel and lighting arrangements at 10, Downing-etreet. Small fifes are.the rule all over bis household.
