Climate and Speech,

It Is curious suggestion that a

the average of the temperature in that
country. Yet such suggestion has
been seriously offered by distinguish
ed British scientist who has been en-
gagged In research in Tibet. He as
cribes the excessive use Of consonants

ans. in common with that Of the Rus
slams and most arctic regions. is the
existe1re of remarkably few vowels in
their words and an extraordinarily
large number of conSonants. Indeed.
this authority points out. so full OF
conSonants are the Tibetan words
that most of them could be articuated
with almost semiclosed mouth. cir
cumStance that evidently proceeds
from the enforced necessity in that
region Of keeping ones lips closed as
far as possible against the cutting
cold when speaking. Exchange

fetal dispatches. not fewer than twen-
ty-three times. Afghanistan merely
capped the climax to this record Of
ability and bravery, and it was no
small thing to plunge northward into
regions practically unknown.
If Major General Roberts, marching
down victorious from out the Afghan
passes, had but brief road to travel
to reach his field marshal's baton he
covered it quickly. He was lieutenant
general when he took the field in Bur-
ma in 1886 and before 1890 had passed
was full general. His field marshal's
commission bears date of May 25, 1895.
Then he laid down the military COM

an even dozen years, and served In
turn as commander in chief in Ireland

his grief that Lord Roberts went out
to the cape to take command and
