THOUGHT.

The little things which you may do
for those about you will fall back up
on your heart as the summer dews
fall upon vineyards. What if it is
nothing but a kind word to a school
boy crying in the street? 1t dries his
tears and the aching heart grows
light and glad again. Who knows
what a cloud of darkness n kind
word may dispel? Wear a smile and
make others happy. There is no joy
so great as tina which springs from
a kind act or a pleasant deed

Three Social Glasses.

There are three social classes in cen
trail Tibet, tie nobility. the clergy, and
the .peasantry. The nobility consists of
the descendants of former rulers OF sep
arate principalities. and the descendants
OF the Dalai Lama and the Panchens,
who are invested by the MaEchu court
with the rank OF prince Of the fifth de
gree.
The princes, together with the rnonas-
terieS and their parishes, are the large
landowners, ard the peasants are serfs
to them. The central government. or the
Dalai Lama, owns more property than
ali the classes named There IS, appa-
rently. no distinct military caste. Mill
tary service accompanies the privilege of
certain land grants

The Tfbetans are also fond of raw

In this huge palace lives the Dalai
Lama. the reincarnation of Buddha. The
foundation of the palace was laid, it is
said. in the seventh century, IN the time
of Khan Srongzang-Gambo. This khan
had among his wives a Nepa1ese queen
and Chinese queen each of whom

We're erected, temples in what is now
Lassa- He himself settled on Mount
Marbo-ri where the palace OF the Dalai
Lama now stands. According TO tradi-
ton, therefore, the city and the palace
had their origin about the same time.
During the life of the fifth eminent
Dalai Lama the Potala was remode1ed
with the addition of the main central
portion called the Red Palace" It is
evident the palace and its additions were
planned as means of defense. The
Potala therefore looms up as one OF
the old castles of which many ruins
abound in Tibet. These ruins tell the
sad stories of many a bloody battle in
which the holders OF the great Potala
played the winning hand.
