Heroic Training.

Concerning a region In Tibet an au-
thority says: 'The only satisfactory
feature about the peoples condition
was their fine physique and their
agreeable. CHEEKY disposition under the
most depressing conditions. Their SUI
perior stature and build are accounted
for partly by the fact that the day
after their children are born their
mothers carry them to the nearest
stream and plunge them into the wa
ter. even in the depth Of winter, when
the temperature is often down to ID
or 20 degrees below zero. Infants
which survive this heroic ordeal are
then smeared thickly all over with
grease and exposed for several hours
every day Of their young lives in the
open air, so that they may grow up
strong and hardy and fit to defy all
weathers, which the majority Of them
are certainly well able to do"
