be but a huddled structure, OF which
the lines are entirely lost in the null
titude of public offices and private
houses which lean against it on all
sides. like those which cucumber the
exterior of Santa Sophia in Constan-
tinople.
Treaty Inscribed on Stone.
The famous willow tree was the less
imposing because it was carefully
walled up to a hight of 10 feet and
even the Doring looked neglected AMI
insignificant. This is a stone slab on
which the treaty concluded in 733 be-
tween China and Tibet is bilingually
inscribed, and it remains to this day
as beyond rivalry the Oldest docu-
ment of the Tibetan race.
The main street Of Tibet is filthy
underfoot and the houses are poor.
Across an opening the Murus gompa
was seen. Somewhere in the imme-
date vicinity the Capuchins twice es-
tablished a Christian chapel, in 1903
and 1904, but the last remains of 1t
appear to have vanished, and in the
last century Mr.. Hodgson received
from the Grand Lama every scrap OF
property belonging to the extinct mis-
sion Most of it was given to the
Pope, and is now in the Vatican
library.
The toad now turned west and a
wide road, or rather a continual pud-
die, running between the adobe walls
of two well-wooded gardens, brought
us back to the foot of the Potala and
the Fargo Kaling gate.
Physically the town of Lhassa must
be admitted 10 be a poorly built and
badly drained town, Of type similar
to and hardly better than that of 9th
er less favored towns IN Tibet. The
magnificence of the Potala and the
beauty of the wide belt of trees and
marshes remain, however, and the per-
lection of the panoramic view from the
spur of Chagpori remains, therefore,
as well. But if picturesqueness we're
all, It might be better never to des-
cend into the narrow and mean lanes
of the town itself. Today l again went
up to see Lhassa from the spur, and
the beauty of it was enhanced by the
quick changes of sun and shadow
across the woods and houses and fields
and by the slant of small-colored rain
in the hollows of the hills beyond.
The XVI Chu sprawled in half dozen
tints in as many years, and the splen-
did white of the Potala close at ones
side toned down to pearl gray as the
first drops of the daily shower of rain
fell heavily.
Worthy of Romance.
Under the fierce sun of today and
the almost unclouded sky of Lhassa
it is not easy to find fault with the
creed, however narrow and merciless,
which has built the Potala. 1t may
be an engine of oppression, but its
victims have not yet protested; it
may be a barrier in itself to any inn
provement in the peoples upon whose
superstition it flourishes; but an at
tempt to judge a country whose con-
temporary history is still chapter
of the Dark Ages is foolishness. A
little We English may be able to do,
and it is our clear duty to do it, little
as it may be. But, meanwhile, Lama
ism has bestowed upon hidden para
disc the cool greenery and the fash
ing roofs of a Dhassa, and, thanks to
Lamaism alone, the great goal of
modern travel proves at last worthy
of the romance in which it has so
long been wrapped.

MASSES IN THE LATE WAR.
The Invading Hosts Of Manchuria
outnumbersd the Armies
Of All Times.

The great feature Of the war has been
the huge masses engaged. Leipzig IT.
self In this respect compares poorly with
Mukden, says the Saturday Review.
The host Of 1912 were not so numerous
a. those that invaded Manchuria, and
Borodino may outrival Laoyang in hor-
rors, but not In numbers Of guns or
men that fought. Yet It is surely re-
markable that after an unbroken record
Of defeat on such huge scale the Rus
SLAMS still can show an army fully
equipped and organized In position.
Liaoyang and Mukden were truly
enough to break the spirit and dissolve
the ranks of the stoutest troops In the
world.
In spite Of the list Of killed and
wounded, Of the prisoners, Of the guns
and trophies the war could still have
been carried on. Yet Marengo, q mere
skirmish In comparison to these BATTLES
Of giants, decided the fate Of q nation.
Jena laid kingdom In the dust. Even
Friedland compelled car TO come to
terms.
What is It that made Mukden inde-
cisive and could allow the car still to
dream Of victory when for a year and a
half not a CLEAN Of success had shone
for moment on his bayonets? The ter
rane In which the battles were fought
had, Of course. much to do with 1t. but
the very vastness of the armies had
more. An army Of several hundreds Of
thousands cannot be moved like one OF
third the size. The telegraph may do
much, but 1t cannot annihilate space
where movements Of men are concerned,
and to pursue a beaten foe requires
prompt action and energy, which are
only possible where events take place
under the eye and within the direction
Of q supreme leader.

CHARACTER IN CHEEKS.
Much Of Human Nature Can Re-
Read in the Facial Outline,
Says q Reader

Various faddists have instituted sys-
TENS for reading character from almost
every member of the human body, and
the latest is the young woman who
announces herself as o reader OF
cheeks"
The mature woman with youthful.
round cheeks is not necessarily deeply
intellectual, but her cheeks are infallible
sign that she is never afflicted with
nerves or stlnginess. On the other hand,
the long. narrow, thin cheeks mark the
pessimist who looks always on the dark
est side Of life and hopes for the worst.
Full cheeks, when not accompanied by
excess Of fat, denote long life, and IL
the cheek be fuller in the lower part it is
additionally Indicative Of hospitality
High cheek bones do not necessarily
indicate wickedness and avarice, al
though high cheek bone indicates q
cautious disposition, which frequently
accompanies the avaricious disposition
Cheek reading promises to become a
fad, although to her intimates the cheek
reader admits that her decisions are in.
1uenced by general study of the face
rather than by the cheek exclusively.
