Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1890-04-04

for the young Indian, many dangling
objects being hung upon it to amuse
the youth or maid not yet graduated
to shooting blunt arrows or talking
scandal.
The study of cradles also answers
another purpose in marking the eli
mate of different countries. The Es-
quimau mother carries her child in q
hood on her back, as the method prac-
ticed by the southern women of strap
ping the yOungster to q board frame
would; in that severe climate, insure
very sad Christmas for the youthful
Esquimau.
Why any human being should live in
as cold places as Greenland and Labra-
dor is yet to be satisfactorily explained,
but the baby EsqUimau is hardly re-
spOnsible for this Yagary during his
first year or so of existence, and we
can examine into the means provided
for his comfort with some degree of
patience. The mother in this paradise
for icemen has the hood Of her skin
robe made very large, so as to carry
therein the babe, which nestles around
the mothers neck secure from the cold.
Some writer's have also spoken Of Es-
quimau mothers carrying their children
in their wide boots.
These, for northern people, are not
very migratory. In their benighted
way they know a good thing when they
see it, and are well content to stick
pretty close to their homes. The
hood, therefore, answers their purpose,
besides being warmer than any carrying
frame.
Coming further south we find the
natives on the Upper Yukon using q
very ingenious trOugh-shaped cradle
of birch bark, made from three pieces,
forming the bottom, the top and hood,
and the awning. Rows of beads orna-
ment the awning, which, in d country
Ehe main inhabitants of which are
mosquitoes, is found a very useful pOr-
ton of the outfit. Playthings of vari-
Gus kinds are also hung to this awning,
and the infant is at liberty to enjoy
himself as much as he sees fit.
On the eastern coast Of Labrador
the infant, Immediately after birth, is
laid naked on layer of moss in a bag
made of leather and lined with hare
skins. This bag is securely laced,
leaving the child freedom to move the
head only. The yOungster closely re-
sembles an Egyptian mummy and is
kept in this state until about one year
