joss house

On deck there was an erection like a diminutive caboose, but which was a temple or joss-house.

I had heard of the idols and images of the Chinese Joss-house, and that is just as it appeared to me that day.

I made a drawing of it, and we then proceeded to the joss-house, which is considered as the handsomest in the Celestial empire.

But the Professor entered it reverently, as if it were the joss-house of hope.
