HOW Es,rimo Bnxs HINT.

In the far north in May and June i'm
tnense numbers Of elder ducks fly along
the coast bound for their breeding
grounds far to the east of Point Barrow.
At this season every person, male and
female, is supplied with the Eskimo i'm
plement called by them ke-love-i-tow-
tin, which is made as follows: Eight
balls three-cuarters Of an inch in diam
eter are cut from ivory or bone, with a
tip OF ear through which hole is drill
ed; eight strands of finely braided sinew
are tied to these balls. AT the oppo-
site ends the strands are brought to-
gether, each of exactly the same length,
and tied to 10 or ~ quilts of some sea
fowl, when the implement is ready for
use. The bunch Of quilts is grasped
with the right hand, while the fingers
Of the left comb out the strand, and
when all clear the balls are held between
The forefnger and the thumb.
This is done in few seconds when a
flock of ducks are seen approaching.
When the game is near enough, with a
quick circular motion just the same as
throwing stone with sling, the mis-
sile is launched among the flying birds,
when, If one of these strands crosses the
neck or the wing of duck, it brings it
to the aground, where it is then captured.
The action of the air on the strings tends
to separate the balls in their fight, SO
that they cover quite space, and if the
birds are punched they often bring one
down, and the boy or girl that can do
this is proud and happy.-Forest and
