Away in far-off Tibet (north OF In

ged mountains with many narrow
dangerous passes which the people
must go through. How does Timothy
Tibet go about making these passes
safer for people to go through? He
puts great piles of rocks (chortens)
in the middle of the pass so that 1t Is
all but impossible to go around with
out falling into the chasm.
Each passing traveller, if in re-
ligious frame of mind, tosses another
rock on the pile, thereby acquiring
merit and "a better chance to get to

Prayer flags (mantras) are also
placed in all sorts of places where
they will fiutter in the wind. 1t is so
hard to make any physical effort in

any form of motion is accepted as

Time was. you know, when Miss Fluff

lored two-piece suit with pillows of
Irish lace trimming the jabot or frill
In the front, worn where a turkey
wears his gobble.
A dainty hand-embroidered and lace
trimmed collar might be laid over the
collar of the suit. There was a flow
ing chiffon veil, despite the severely
mannish sailor straw hat, set above
an elaboratsly waved pompadour, and
there were a number of elaborate and
scintillating hatpins. Possibly a jew
eled chain was worn outside the coat
tucked in at the front where the waist
was tucked into the belt. You may
be old enough yourself to recall the
picture.
But now. The mannish suit calls
for mannish shirt, mannish hat,
a mannish haircut. Preferably your

Scant and fat the backs of these

and the advantage of the front or
side box pleats there is none of that
ugly tendency to draw across the

tailors and dressmakers have learned
a trick from the French-that it is
better to give little too much room
across the back than too little, and

Prince of Wales has been given now
to coat for women that may become

men with the name Of his royal grand
father when Prince of Wales two gen.

have had only a vague idea of who
Prince Albert really was.

after the prince, consists of the

GENEVA, March G. Assurances
that Russia is not the military men
ace rhat Europe sometimes imagines
her is the message which League of
Nations experts have brought back
to Geneva from Esthonia and Latvia.
These league officials. headed by
Sir Eric Drummond, secretary-gen-
eral of the league, toured Esthonia
and Latvia, and say they found them
closely allied against any bolshevik
aggression. The military leaders of
both states reported that Russia was
buying airp12ues in large quantities,
but they expressed the opinion that
Russia's lack of technical knowledge
of modern warfare was so marked
that her only strength would be in
numbers. who would be obliged to
employ ancient methods of lighting.
Esthonia and Latvia hope they can
invite Lithuania to join their en-
tente as soon as Lthuania settles the
Wilma dispute with Poland. Their
dream of the future is a Baltic de-
fensive alliance comprising Esthonia,
Latvia, Lithuania, Finland and Po-
land.
Fear Sepnrat> Agreement.
The officials said the countries they
visited were strongly in favor of the
Geneva protocol as affording univer-
sal security, and they were alarmed
at the separate agreement talk be-
tween Great Britain and France as
being calculated to sacrifice general
security.
The league experts emphasized as
significant impression of their visit
determination by the Baltic states to
achieve political harmony through
mutual economic usefulness. The
black cloud on the Baltic horizon.
they say is the strife between Poland
and Danzig. The Polish foreign min
lister, Count Alexander Skrzynski, it
is said, will insist at the coming
meeting of the council of the League
of Nations on an examination of the
entire Danzig situation.
