Tibetans Depend on Species ofWorms
To Provide the Necessary Pick-Me-Up'.

A curious little worm, which is
used by Tibetan natives as "pick-
me-up,' has attracted the attention
of missionaries.
Locally known as. "grassworms,"
they make their habitat in lofty
mountain ranges of the Tibetan
border, near the Tatsienlu leper
home conducted by the Friars Minor
of the Hankow Vicariate.
Natives eat them dead or alive for
medical purposes. In either form
they bring fancy prices. They are
in great demand for the mentally
depressed and for sufferers of stom-
ach trouble.
When dead they are mixed with
boiled chicken. In this concoction
they are said to react wonderfully
as "pick-me-ups." When live worms
without cocoons are dug up they are
mixed with strong liquor, distilled
from maize. Taken in. this form
they are considered a potent rem
edy against stomach ills,
So valuable is the "grass-worm"
considered that hundreds of hunters
make living by gathering them.
The hunters swarm the mountain
slopes to search for these worms.
They easily find eager buyers. aiix-

CHAPTER "

Clint swung the car off the main
thoroughfare. s"This is the road,
he said. .sI'll show you"
And he drove more slowly, study
ing the way. Woodlands shut them
in on either side before he stopped
at last, where there was a path, and
a house among the trees.
"This is where ! let her out"
he explained.
Tope nodded, looking toward the
house. Probably Doctor Cabler
lives there, !, he suggested. How

Clint explained, and he drove on,

Tope commented: mo houses

"They're on top of the HILL" Clint
replied. He put the car swiftly up
the grade and the three houses
came into view.
Tope said, in low tone as though
he might be overheard: "Drive
slowly, Clint" M
"I'il STOP" Clint amended. He
pulled up the car beside the road,
and got out, under pretext Of in
specting the tires; but at the same
time, under the brim of his hat, he
looked attentively at these three
houses by the road. So did Tope and
Miss Moss too. p
There was an underfaker's gar
land attached to the door of the
house in the middle; and a car
with Doctors tag stood beside the
road. The day was warm and fine
after the shower; yet nowhere did
Clint see a window open. Some of
the shutters were closed and at 9TH
er windows thick curtains hung.
Behind the houses, the woods were
dark and still.
When Clint presently drove on, he
looked at Tope to see what impress
sion the older man had received.
well, there they are," he said.
'What do you Think"
Tope answered with a slow smile:
''Why, / get notions. Fool notions,
maybe, Clint; but I've got in the
habit of believing them. It feels to
me as If the people that lived in
those houses were afraid"

she'd kiss me good night. Wanted

Miss Moss smiled at the austerity
behind his words. She'll be CRATE

Tope said in a r1irthful tone:
"And you no sooner get rid of her,
than another one comes out in her
nightgown to waylay you,. Clint.
What is this strange power of
yours?"
Clint laughed, and then the tele-

across the room. He said:

He put up the receiver and turned
back to them; and Miss Moss saw
that his eyes shone.
"What is it?" Clint demanded.

called up the Medical Examiner, !"
Tope explained. Doctor Derrie
had had no report on the death, so
Heale called the family doctor. Doc
tor named Cabler. He says Mrs.
Leaford died from an overdose Of
some sleeping-powder." He added,
after a moment: Accidental.
"Accidental?" Miss Moss repeat

There was a moments silence,
and then he added:

ious to purchase all they can dig up.
In the winter season, the ground
is covered with these insects. More
often they are found in the cocoon,
less often without. In either form
they find a ready market.
Though somewhat smaller, they
resemble silk-worms in appearance.
The head is covered by a bright
red crust. As winter approaches
they burrow head-first straight down
into the ground. Here they spin
thin cocoons in which they wrap
themselves. When the snow melts,
their heads begin sprouting proc
ess. Thin hairs, resembling grass,
spring from the soil.
The people of the district believe
that the sprouting blades open like
flowers and scatter spores which in
due time develop into other worms.

came, the small family kitten was
no where to be found. Donnie burst

He added, and his tones were
somber now: "The reason Charley
had all this stuff so pat, Mrs. Lea
ford died last night, and he'd been
getting up an obit for her."
"Died?" Clint cried. "She was
alive"
SIT wasn't her you saw" Tope
reminded him. ''She must have
been past forty now"
"You asked something about
children" Miss Moss prompted.

children" Tope explained. HE
didn't know. They just got flash
about her death, from the district
man out there; and they wanted to
give her a good obit, because Of
course Hurder is a big advertiser.

Miss Moss urged slowly: 'Why
do you think so? Mrs. Leaford was
sick, and the telephone was out of

doctor. Isn't that all?"
Tope shook his head.

"What was the matter with Mrs.

Charley said heart trouble"
Tope explained. "But that covers a
