TIBETAN BoRDERI.ANDs WOMEN


 From Pilgrim-Path in the Lama Country, by Will Thompson, in Asia Magazine.
 The Iiso women of the Mekong valley with their cowrie head dresses, are perhaps unique among the natives of these hilIsides: and. if you succeed in snapping one, you are uncommoniy fortunate, since they are very shy in front of the camera. They are barely five feet high, they wear a peculiar short, plaited petit coat and buskins on their legs, and their feet are generally bare-at least in warm weather. Like all primitive people they are fond of jewelry. There has been some spec ulation as to the origin and signi- ficance of the cowries on their head dresses, since the Liso are not mar ftime race. They are @ hill-people, aboriginal tribes once independent and ruled by native chiefs, who have been gradually forced out of China by the oncoming tide of Chinese civ- ilization. They are mild and inof- fensive and they generally live
 
 tribe in western China has it's own dialect, and the Liso speak their own language. Their religion ap- pears to be a form of animism. Their small hamlets along the Me- kong are protected by high mud walls; and they grow wheat, millet, barley and hardier vegetables in patches along their terraced hill sides. A pig or two and few fowls are usually confined in small pen for immediate family use; and tho grain is kept over winter in tall warehouses or in deep pits especially constructed for that purpose.
 On market days. usually once or twice fortnight, the women visit the neighboring market towns along the Mekong or Yangtze, carrying their produce to sell in the way common to aboriginal women in an- cient China, in the feudal state of Tsin They sell or barter their goods for commodities that they need. and return quietly to their homes among the mountains The young men of the village are deer-hunters and chasers of rabbits and other small game that infests the solitudes. These youths are agile, lean and wiry, ruddy- checked, robust and ab- solutely tireless. They pass rapidly from village to village, from dis trict to district, crossing the deep valleys by narrow, winding path. or by rope-b bridge, and fording the smaller streams
