Most musicians of other nationalities
play wind instruments by applying
them to the mouth. The Tagbanoua
plays them with his nose! The lantui,
a reed aute. has two holes, aud one
nose piece at one end of the cane, at
the Joint. The lantui is pressed By the
thumb against the left nostril, the
right nostril being held tightly closed
by the arst finger of the hand. The
Tngbanoua nose is so fiattened at the
base and has such expanded nostrils,
elongated at the side, that it is es-
pecia1ly adapted for this purpose. The
Tagbanoua musician can get in this
fashion some sweetly pathetic sounds
by far the most melodious sounds
have ever heard from any body'sg nose,
and he is even bold enough to attempt,
with success, too. trill."
