The river Tauche formerly flowed i'm
10 this lake, but now the tributaries
that led TO the lake are dry, and the
river itself ds choked mp about thirty
two kilometres north of Nngnml,
During the last ten or twelve years the
water has disappeared very rapidly,
and the reason apparently Is because
the mouth OF the river was gradually

floats or RATS on which the natives
were won't 10 take their yearly tribute

maintain that the water found itself
powerless against nn obstacle Hike this,
the result being that the river and

China claims TO have originated
massage treatment, According TO long
time Chinese ideas, life is entirely de-
pendent on "Uir currents" which are
designated ms the primary aura Of the
organism, So long, then, as the body
is permented by the aNr current II Is
proof against disease, and the object
of physical exercise is to circulate tho
air current. To effect this the Chin
ese system is divided into three per-
iods, cOch period occupying hundred
days, the first period commencing ut
the time Of the new moon,
The patient must rise at o'clock
i'm the morning and walk outside his
house, taking seven deep inspirations,
and immediately after this, two
youths who have been specially train
ed, commence gentle friction all
over the body, starting over the car
diac area. At the time Of full moon o
further set Of inspiratory exercises
are taken. Later on, in the second
period the various parts of the body
are rubbed with wooden planks until
che muscles are hardened, and it Is
not until the hardening takes place
that the real physical exercises are
taken. between the fifth and sixth
month rs the period of greatest ac-
tiyity, the European dumbhell being
replaced by hrge sacks filled with
stones. II is in the lhrd period that
the back muscles are chiefly exercised,
