BUTTER: & NORTHERN BY HAL M N Oberlin, O., Dec. 8-—Miss Ursula | Wilder, a student of Oberlin college, is one of the only ‘two white women who have ever visited the Valley of the Lost Trjbe in China, where exiled Chinamen do‘ pennance for the sins of i their ancestors. With her father, G. D. Wilder, Congregational missionary, and Mis Isabel Ingram, a student at Welles college, Miss Wilder made the’ trip by train, donkey .and on foot, ov few Chinamen know of its location. i Lost Tribe Frightened The coming of white people into this territory; awed, if not, frightened it was with considerable ditficulty ; that Miss Wilder succeeded in learn- ing the history of the Lost Tribe. “Three hundred years ago, in the time of the Ming dynasty,” as Mis Wilder tells it, “a tribé. of Chinese rebelled against the Manchus. Many of them, instead of being killed,, were allowed to live in the Nae on; thre conditions: “That they would always fas in “That they would never marry out- side the one tribe. “That they would pay tribute to the | Manchus. x “It was believed ‘that the tribe would die out. But, instead, they cul- | tivated the land and have grown from i three to ‘thirty villages. World Has Stood Still | “To this Lost Tribe, the world has | stood still. The people wear the} j bright colors of their ancestors and } their clothes are queer and different. Every custom and tradition’ practiced | by the Chinese of 300 years ago is! observed by the inhabitants of the Hidden Valley. “poth the men wand the women are of larger build than other Chi- nese people. The women of the Lost Tribe dd not bind their feet and they are larged than those of other | Chinese women. “The homes of the Lost Tribe are made of bamboo poles anda thick felt and are called mongel pao. They look like tents and can. be taken down | or put up in short notice.. Often a whole village will pack up and move to another section of the valley when zing ground has grown bad.” Miss Wilder says the young girls j est and finest ingredients to be had, con- ‘tains no opiates or other harmful drugs, and costs twice as much to make as eny imitation of it. f Every User a Fri " “My little boy bad a severe’ attack of croup and I honestly Believe he would have died 1 it “I am in my eighty-seventh year and I was troubled with a tickling in my throat. lam very glad to tell Honey and Tor has ‘stopped th » Randall, Dayton, Nev.
