CAREFUL STUDY TO BE MADE Explorers and Scientists Will examine Rare Books and Manuacripts and Thoroughly Investigate Customs , i |M the "Roof of the World," ftohdon.--Great Britain Intend* to make a thorough study of the little known land of Tibet, where devilworship and belief in ghosts still ex- ^ e A mission composed of some of Great Britain's ablest explorers, scientists, missionaries and * ethnologists soon will leave London for the city of Lhasa, which is buried behind the world's greatest rampart of mountains, the Himalayas, between India and China. The mission will proceed under &e auspices of the International Buddhist - union, representing all schools of Buddhism, including the Buddhist society of the United States. ' Rare Books to Be Studied. The mission will make a closer Investigation of the Tibetan people, their customs, religion and language than has yet been possible, together with a study of rare books and manuscripts known to exist In the monastic libraries. These are expected to prove of the greatest value, not only to Buddhist scholarship and to the study of comparative religion, but In Oiling many gaps that at present exist In the world's knowledge of the early history of a country which to the present da** Is veiled in mystery. The Tibetans l|ve In - mountain strongholds 15,000 feet above the level of the sea, 500 feet higher than Mount Whitney, the highest peak in the United States. They have always proved inhospitable to foreigners and to the introduction of modern Ideas. Little is known of the origin of the people. Local tradition has it that the progenitors of the race were "a shedevil of the Himalayas'* and an ape from the plains of Hindustan. The last foreigner In Tibet was an American missionary, Dr. A. L. Shelton of San Francisco, who spent 17 years at Batang; - nea^' the C^tao-Hbetan border. - 1 ^ " Last of Theocracies. In Its form of government Tibet Is one of the few remaining theocracies in the world. The people lead a nomadic life. Monogamy, polygamy and polyandry flourish. Under the polyandrous system the eldest son of a family marries a woman and she becomes the common wife of himself and his brothers. Doctor Sheltan fonnd that the Tibetan woman usually marries three or four brothers, and Jn one case that came under his observation a woman had six brothers for husbands. The oldest brother Is considered the fatUter and the other brothers the uncles of the family. Woman occupies a superior position. She is master of the home and term. *f young deer, ground to powder, are -Considered by the Tibetans infallible medicinal remedies for all ills and are even held in high favor as table delicacies. Thousands of years of isolation have paralyzed the progress of the people. There is no public instruction. Pagan forms of worship prevail. Only the most elemental form of government exists. Offenders against the law, which is derived largely from the Kanjur, the Buddhist bible, a work of 108 volume* are punished by having their hands and fret amputated. When a Tibetan dies his body la die* membered and fori to vultures. The people are extremely poor. They dress in sheepskins and the BSOal rule la one garment to a person. Trades Son for Horse.

In a few weeks the cathedral of Metx will possess the famous chimes of 00 porcelain bells of which so much has been said. It Is said that the tone of these'bells leaves nothing to be desired. As to their solidity, they seem to be of the first order. Until now no such use has been made of porcelain, a fact which will make of the chimes of Metz an unequaled curiosity. It is recalled, however, that at Mlssen, where the manufacture of the so-called "Dresden" china was carried on from 1710 to 1863, there is a house cepaiFiKted of that material. 8ome Town.

But he Is made of the stuff from which real heroes are made. He Is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Howard P. Corsa. Billy rose to the heights when the life of his three-year-old brother. Dick, was endangered by a pair of plunging Percheron horses. Undismayed, the six-year-old stood In the path of the horses protecting his brother with one hand--and turned the steel-shod horses from their path. With Billy Corsa It was entirely a problem like thl»---"111 do what I can --but If Dick la hurt, Fll very likely be hurt--maybe, killed--to#," Perhaps young Corsa didn't think in Just that form, but the fact remains that he measured up to the highest standard of boyish bravery, aad got sway with it Dick was playing in the yard of the Corsa home. Boylike, he wandered Into the roadway. In a nearby field the Percherons were unhitched, preliminary to being housed in the barn after the day's work. Frisky and active, the two big mountains of horse flesh, knowing the evening meal awaited in their stalls, started on a run for the barn--over the roadway where Dick Corsa was playing. The youngster sav them coming, turned to run into the yard, and fell directly in their path. Billy Corsa saw his baby brother's danger. Like a flash he ran into the road and pulled Dick to his feet There wasn't time to dash to safety in the yard, so Billy Corsa practically threw his brother behind him, raised his arm high In the air, palm out toward the pair of horses, and shrilled, tenae and piercing: "Back, Daal Back, Cap I Back; back, I say!" At that Instant the pair of Per. cherons were but five yards away aad coming fast. There wasn't really time for either Cap or Dan to halt the maddened dash, and to "back I"--there wasn't time for either horse to obey literally--to turn and run back. But they -- the Percherons -- understood. They recognized that "ommand In that boyish voice; that upraised arm. Cap swung to the right, Dan to the left, and the horses passed both boys by Inches. Then Billy Corsa took his whitefaced, frightened brother Into the house. He was unconscious of the fact that he had pretty thoroughly exemplified the real spirit of love for his brother, and had measured in every way to a heroic standard. Money Must Not Be Photographed.
