Salt is ao important to tb* Tibetans
that in some porta of the country it
ia a medium of exchange, lta pro-
duction constitute* an industry of
considerable conaoquenm in aom of
the valleys of the eastern border re-
gion, particularly at Yengin, where
salt water may be obtained from
shallow wells.
Flat roofs of mud, beaten on to
a carpet of small poles supported by
larger poles, are constructed. Along
the edges rained rims are built.
The beating or puddling makes the
mud surfaces practically impervious
to water. Women carry kegs of
salt water ou their barka to the
roofs, climbing up notched poles
that serve as ladders. The water is
poured on the flat surfaces and
evaporated by the wind.
After the water has disappeared
the thin tilm of dry salt left on the
roofs is collected, but not without
considerable quantities of dirt and
grit which are swept up with it.
The salt, as it conies from the
roofs, is carried as an article of
commerce all over eastern Tibet. It
is very cheap at the wells, but be-
comes progressively dear as the dis-
tance increases. In the remote dis-
tricts the price of salt becomes al-
most prohibitive and it is eagerly
sought after.
HERMIT THRUSH MUSICAL
THE SALARY OF M. P.*S.
The salary of an M. P. is £4<M>
(nominally $2,000) a year, on
which he has hitherto paid income
tax. As an income this is inade-
quate, but in these days of anti-
waste campaigns both ministry and
house of commons shrink from in-
creasing it. But the law officers of
the crown suddenly discovered that
an M. P.’s expenses may legitimate-
ly be reckoned against his income,
so that the poorer* of them wi|l now
pay no tax at all. A happy issue,
relieving the poor M. P., endearing
the government to his grateful heart
and throwing no odium on parlia-
ment ministry, since it seems that
this is the ordinary law, and al-
ways was, although no one suspect-
ed it till a few weeks ago.—New Re-
public.

You will observe that these ideas
are fai rly well linked. All that hap-

central argument, has pursued each
side issue as it offered itself. This
comes from a lack of concentration,
which indisposes a woman to pene-
trate deeply into u subject; she is
not used to concentration, she does
not like it. It might lead her to
disagreeable discoveries.

Bulletin of April 1, 1916, is devoted
entirely io an article on “The Con-

Arthur f. Parker, archeologist of
the museum, sud contains a quan-
tity of enlightening information on
the history of the Indian tribes of
this country. A part of the Iroquois
^institution is especially significant:
“The ‘lords,’ or civil chiefs, were
nominated by eerlain noble women
in whose families the titles were he-
reditary; the nominations were con-
firmed by popular councils, both of
men und women, and finally by the
confederate council. Women thus
had great power, for not only could
Kiev nominate their rulers, but also
depose them for ineompotency in of-
fice. Here, then, we find the right
pf popular nomination, the right of
recall and woman suffrage, all nour-
ishing in the old America of the Red
Man, and centuries before it became
the clamor of the new America of
