called uric acid deposits, were dis
solved In the joints and muscles
and expelled from the body.
with this idea In mind he con-
suited physicians made expert

TIBETAN MENU NOT VARIED
Majority OF the Population Su5sists
Almost Exclusively on Barley
Meal and Butter Tea"

Tihetans live almost the year round
on two things. parched barley meal.
called "tsamba," and butter tea" ac-
cording TO DIR. A. L. Shelton. writing
IN the National Geographic Magazine.
Tsamba is made by parching barley
and then grinding it into q very fine
-four. Ii becomes sort of emergency
ration, for. being parched. il requires
no cooking.
III preparing the other principal ar
ticle of their diet the Tibetans first
make a strong liquid by boiling the
coarse Chinese tea. which they prize
most highly. The concoctiOn is
strained into a churn and 10 it are
added a lump of butter. more or less
stale. and a handful OF salt. The
queer mixture is then churned INFO
an emulsion.
The typical meal among the valley
folk of Tibet. and among many of
the nomads as well, begins with the
drinking of two or three cupfuls OF
butter tea.
AS the Tibetan drinks his hot but
ter tea. he continually blows back
from the rim of his bowl the film
OF butter that rises 10 the top. Af-
ter several bowls OF the beverage
have been drunk. there is a consid-
cradle accumulation of butter. The
bowl is then ha,s-filled with the tea
emulsion. Into the hot liquid, rich
in butter fat .samba is now poured,
To be kneaded by the fingers into
humps and eaten.
Kniyes, forks, and spoons are I'M
known in Tibet-all eating is done
with fingers. The wooden bowl is
carried in the sheepskin garment next

COLD IN HIGHEST ATTITUDES
Why Volume of Heat Decreases az
One Leaves the Immediate Sur
face of the Earth.

You would have thought that the
nearer you get to the sun. the warmer
the temperature becomes, wouldn't
you? But this is by no means the
case. for il is much colder closer 10
the sun when the latter is shining its
brightest than Ii is on the earth.
This is proved by the fact that the
highest mountains, even in tropical
countries, are perpetually snow
capped. Were the air there even
Of the same temperature as that of
the plains beneath, the snow would
soon disappear.
You know, too. that the higher an
Girman flies the more warmly clad he
must be il he is not To suffer from
cold.
The reason for this strange phe-
nomenon is that the rays Of sunshine
pierce through the upper layers of
the atmosphere. which offer very little
resistance TO them. Tie earth, on the
other hand, being more solid. cannot

sll. that We get the full effect of the

WORD CHANGED IN MEANING
Modern FiIibuster Is a Comparatively
Harmless Proceeding, Considering
What Ii Once Meant

When legislator attempts to delay
the progress of measure he disap-
proves OF, in the hope of preventing its
passage, spending hours upon hours de-
batting it, he is called a "filibuster."
The only parliamentary body in the
world where filibustering TO the ex-
treme is countenanced and where it
has chance Of success is the United
States senate.
The real meaning of the word "fili-
buster" is a lawless adventurer, espe-
cially one in quest Of plumber. The
term is derived from the original fill
busters, who were West Indian pirates.
The name, Is traceable TO that Of the
small, fast-sailing vessels. which used
to be called "fiilibotes'' or "fy-boats."
Gradually the meaning of the ex-
preston began to embrace all sorts OF
military adventure. American usage
finally broadened the phrase to such an
extent that it now includes those SEN
ators or congressman who use obstruc-
tive and dilatory tactics to gain their
ends.

DRAWBACKS IN DOMESTIC
COMMERCE

Those who are wondering why
prosperity does not return are
peering over their spectacles:
They fix their eyes on the far-ott
horizon and keep mumbling about
the loss of our foreign commerce.
Foreign commerce is good,
America has made a lot of money
out OF it. But this country has
prospered on less foreign COM
merce than we have now.
The inside works of the COM
mercial machine need adjusting
Our domestic commerce should
cause us more worry. The coun-
try never has been prosperous
when its farming population was
down at the heel. And under
present conditions it is futile to
expect farmers to feel hilarious.
The armistice signatures were
not dry of their ink before a lot OF
folk set up a cry for dcflation and
reimbursement. Three whole years
later we have got as far as read
justing and debating the greatest
of our industries, agriculture. We
have debated the farmers income
down to about the 1918 level and
we have left his expenses pretty
nearly at the topnotch OF war
times. He can hardly give away
his hides but he pays as much Tor
his shoes as ever. He begs the
buyers to take his fat steers, but
if he wants steak at the meat
market he is charged the full UNI
Hooverized price of the darkest
DAYS of conflict. Pork chops are
worth their weight in gold, but
there is slack market for corn
fed hogs. Irvine binders cost
twice as much i'll the former days
of dollar wheat, but the dollar
shakes hands with the bushel OF
the farmers grain on terms OF
equality.
The farmer must be reluctant
BUYER of all but the barest neces-
sites under such conditions. And
when the farmers can not buy
there will be no prosperity in this
country. Those who would rem
edv the evils from which the coun-
try is suffering should scan close
" the economic conditions which
are thus expressing the nations
greatest industry and reducing the
legitimate incomes of nearly half
the country's population.

man TO bed the doctor is pre-
pared for what is before him. But,
according to DR.. Emerson, before
the case goes that far the doctor
is more or less puzzled. he
knows what TO do for man on
his back in bed, but he doesn't
know what to do for the man who
is lust feeling not quite right.
They have not been taught TO

relative health and perfect health

he keeps going about. The treat

PROFICIENCY IN PREVENTION

DR.. Haven Emerson, former
health commissioner of New
York. threw suggestion before
a section of the New York Acad-
envy of Medicine the other day
which has fitted through the
minds of laymen more frequently
probably than it has occurred to
physicians. That is the necessity
for the recognition of some way
point-a sort of flag station-be-
tween perfect health and relative
health, or. as DIR. Emerson put it,
between high and low standard
of health. Unfortunately that is
way roint in which doctors. as
rule. are not interested, and DR..
Emerson tells why: Mainly be-
cause the profession has not been
trained in that direction.
That falls partially under the
head of preventive medicine, and
while many fiorid claims are made
for proficiency III prevention, DIR.
Emerson declares that to be the
one point in which young doctors
are left unframed. The man who
is not i'll, but mot feeling quite
right" gets little comfort from his
doctor, who, according to DR..
Emerson, gets out of the job by
telling his patient in a cheerful
manner. Il guess you're pretty
WELL" Something is wrong and
the man knows it. The doctor
knows it. too. but just at that
stage doesn't know what to do.

progressed far enough to put the
