“Paid your tailor's bill yet?” asked
a friend.
“Can’t,” replied the young man.
“Paid the florist?”
“Quite impos.”
“What about your motorin" bill?”
“They're still sending it In.”
“If you can’t pay for your own liv
ing,” exclaimed his friend, in disgust,
“why don’t you be decent enough to
die?”
“And then run up an undertaker’s

Tibet Secrets
to Be Unveiled
Great Britain About to Send a
Mission to That Little
Known Land.
CAREFUL STUDY TO BE MADE
Explorers and Scientists Will Exam
ine Rare Books and Manuscripts and
Thoroughly Investigate Customs
on the “Roof of the World.”
London.—Great Britain Intends to
ruak'4»a thorough study of the little
known land of Tibet, where devil
worship and belief In ghosts still ex
ist.
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 moun
tains, the Himalayas, between India
and China. The mission will proceed
under the 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 In
vestigation 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 li
braries. These are expected to prove
of the greatest value, not only to
Buddhist scholarship and to the study
of comparative religion, but in filling
many gaps that at present exist in the
world’s knowledge of the early history
of A country which to the present day
Is veiled in mystery.
The Tibetans live in mountain
strongholds 15,000 feet above the level
of the sea, 500 feet higher than Mount
Whitney, the highest peak in the Unit
ed States. They pave 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 she
devil of the Himalayas” and an ape
from the plains of Hindustan.
The last foreigner In Tibet was an
American missionary, Dr. A. L. Shel
ton of San Francisco, who spent 17
years at Bata ng, near the Chino-Ti
betan border.
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 be
comes the common wife of himself
and his brothers.
Doctor Shelton , found that the Ti
betan woman usually marries three or
four brothers, and in one case that
came under his observation a woman

Philadelphia.—“ Billy” Corsa is only

Bucks county, not far from Perkasie.
But lie 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,

percheron horses. Undismayed, the

horses protecting ids brother with one

horses from their path.

MUTE, 10, SUDDENLY SPEAKS
Boy Gains Power After Praying at
Altar In Tented Church of
Evangelist.
Clarksburg, W. Va.—Clarence Mc-
Afee, ten years old, a mute since
birth, suddenly gained the power of
speech after praying at the altar of a
tented church where evangelistic serv
ices were being conducted by the Pen
tecostal denomination.
The story of the seeming miracle was
told by Mrs. Ida Trlbett of Sturgis,
Mich., the evangelist in charge of the
revival. Those acquainted with the
boy say he had never spoken before.
The case is vouched for by various
persons who attended the meeting.

Thirty-three states had “No More War” demonstrations July 29 and 30
as a part of the international demonstration on the anniversary of the start
of the great war. Mrs. Bradley Snyder, accompanied by Mrs. Joseph Phillips,
president of the District of Columbia branch of the National War Mothers, Is
shown in the picture placing one of the placards at the foot of the memorial
tree in honor her son, who was killed in France.
—but If Dick is hurt, I’ll very likely
be hurt—maybe, killed —too.” Per
haps young Corsa didn’t think In Just
that form, but the fact remains that
he measured up to the highest stand
ard of boyish bravery, and got away
with It.
Dick was playing In the yard of the
Corsa home. Boy like, he wnndered
into the roadway, in a nearby field
the Percherons were unhitched, pre
liminary to being housed in the barn
after the day’s work. Frisky and ac
tive, the two big mountains of horse
flesh, knowing the evening meal await
ed In their stalls, started on a run for
the barn—over the roadway where
Dick Corsa was ploying.
The youngster saw 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 bls feet. There wasn’t time to dash
to safety in the yard, so Billy Corsa
practically threw his brother behind

Trades Son for Horse.
Quebec. —A Quebec farmer, main

Boy, Five, Saved in Toy
Wagon as Boat Sinks
Garrison, N. Y.—Leonard
Staff’s 28-foot motorboat was
capsized by the swell of a river
steamer off this village. Mr.
Staff put his five-year-old son In
a toy express wagon, which
floated away from the sinking
launch, and managed to keep his
wife above water, also, until
help came.
They were moving their fur
niture from Fort Edward to
South Nyack, where their home
is to be. The motorboat sank

palm out toward the pair of
and shrilled, tense and piercing:
“Back, Dan! Back, Cap! Back,
back, I say!”
At that Instant the pair of Per
cherons were but five yards away and
coming fast. There wasn’t really time
for either Cap or Dan to halt the mad
dened dash, and to “back!” there
wasn’t time for either horse to obey
literally—to turn and run back. But
they the Percherons understood.
They recognized that command 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 white
faced, frightened brother into the
house. He was unconscious of the fact
that he had pretty thoroughly exempli
fled the real spirit of love for hit
brother, and Lad measured in every
way to a heroic standaid.
