In Sumatra there Is a very singular race
Of human beings called the Kubus. They
are the most timid and bashful people In
the world, being too shy to mingle with
the other races OF the island. They dwell
In the darkest recesses Of the mountain
forests and have seldom been seen by white
men. One has never been known to
willingly face stranger. This being the
case their trade with the Malayans is car
ried on In very strange way. The trader
announces his arrival by beating a gong
and then retires from the place Of reudez-
vous. The shy Kubus then approach, put
their forest treasures on the ground, beat
the traders gong and retreat. The trader
then returns and lays his commodities
down in quantities sufficient to pay the
purchase price of the goods on sale.
He then disappears for a second time
this to give the Kubus a chance to return
and consider the bargain. After many
Withdrawals, approaches, gong beating,
etc, an understanding Is arrived at and
each party carries away his bargain. This
remarkable race know nothing Of a su-
preme being, heaven, hell or evil demons.
They have no system of marriage and
never bury their dead. They live on snakes,
ants. bugs. grubs, etc.-St. Louis Republic.
