PRESENTS AS TOKENS OF SUBNIIS-
SION.

II, when private person brings an of.
fering to his chief or king, the act implies
submission, still more does the bringing
of an offering by subordinate ruler to
supreme ruler; here, where disloyalty is
more to be feared, the significance of the
ceremony as proving loyalty becomes
greater. Hence the making of presents
grows into formal recognition of supre.
macy In ancient Vera Paz, "as soon as
some one was elected king, all the lords
Of the tribes appeared or sent relations
of theirs, with presents. They declared
at the proclamation that they agreed to
his election and accepted him as king"
Among the Chibchas, when new king
came to the throne, "the chief men then
took an oath hatthey would be obedient
and loyal vassals, and as proof of their
loyalty each one gave him jewel and a
number of rabbits, etc" Ofthe Mexicans,
Toribio says; Each year, at certain fes>
tivals, those Indians who do not pay
taxes even the chiefs, made gifts to the
sovereigns, in token of their submission.
And so in Peru. mo one approached
Atahuallpa without bringing a present
in token of submission; and, though those
who came were great mobiles, they enter.
ed with the presents on their own backs,
and without shoes" The significance
of gift,making as implying allegiance is
well shown by two contrasted statements
in the records ofthe Hebrews. OF Solo,
mon it is said that "he reigned over all
the kings from the river even unto the
land of the Philistines and to the border
of Egypt" and also that "all the kings
of the earth sought the presence of Solo>
mon. and they brought every man his
present,a rate year by year." Converse
ly, it is written that, when Saul was cho>
sen king, "the children of Belial said,
How shall this man save us? And they de.
spised him, and brought him no present.
Throughout the remote East, the bring>
ing of presents to the chief ruler has still
the same meaning. In Japan it was "a
duty ofeach lord to visit and pay his re
spects at the imperial court once year,
when they offered presents" and, furth-
er, "the secular monarch pays his respect
and duty once year to the mikado, by
a solemn embassy and rich presents. "
In China the meaning of the act as ex>
pressing subordination is extremely
marked. Along with the statement that
"at the installation of the great khan
four thousand messengers and embassa.
dors who came loaded with presents as
sisted at the ceremony" eread that the
Mongol officers asked the Franciscan
friars dispatched by Innocent ". ."wheth.
er the pope knew that the grand-khan
was Heavens son, and that the domin-
ion ofthe earth belonged of right to him,
what present they had brought from the
pope to the great khan. ."-HERBERT

eff you want to keep your boy at home,
