Speaking of making knots reminds
me o. an Eskimo woman l once met,
who for my edification tied a in her
mouth a short piece OF string into 4
double bow knot, using for the purpose
neither Of her hands, but merely her
tongue. The tongue, of course is an
organ of touch much more sensitive

of the cord in and out until at length
she took the string from her lips, tied
into perfect bow knot share.
