of British New Guinea (Papua) reports
the discovery Of an extraordinary tribe
OF marshland dvellers in that island.
Owing to the character Of the section
OF the country in which they live pc
destrian locomotlon IS almost imprac-
ticable The land Is too swampy TO
be walked upon. and the entangled
tropical underground in the wide
stretches of shallow water renders ca
noeing almost Impossible. The native
dwellings are built In the trees above
the water level. AS the result of these
conditions the natives arc gradually
losing the use Of their lower limbs.
They are unable to walk on hard
ground without suffering from bleed
Ing feet Their bodies have developed
enormously in the trunk, but the
thighs. legs and feet are dimlnutive.
In figure and carriage they arc apelike.
Anthropologists are very much excited
over the discovery, and a scientific in
vestlgalon into the habits and physical
characteristics of the tribe is promised
by the government.
