ESKIMO FOOTWEAR.
Boots Of the Arctic aeo;ops aad Row
They Arc Made.

Booes Of the Arctic aeo;ops and Row
They Are Made.
The Eskimos. as rule, use moth
ing but the sealskin. deerskin. musk
oxen, arctic hare and bird skins for
both their feet and their clothing.
In the first place they-skin the hare,
clean and dry it and chew it all over,
and when it is thoroughly dry they
cut it up and make socks to wear
inside of their seal or deer skin
boots Gn their language called ka-
maks). The sealskin is taken, the
fat cleaned off. a wooden frame
made about a foot on the round
larger than the skin. and the skin is
then laced tightly around a frame
and kept in the sun until thorough
ly dry.
Then the squaws or women clean
and set about cutting it up into
boots, which are generally made
about two or three sizes too large.
The bottom, or sole, is cut to the
shape Of the foot in one piece, the
uppers are joined and sewed to the
edge of the bottom. and the fore
part is sewed to the leg nearly
straight across the instep. The leg
is cut out according to the length
wanted, with a receiving string in
the top to tie over, thus keeping the
snow out.
The arctic Eskimos do not use
bark or tan Of any kind for their
skins. It cannot be procured, and
they do not know how to use it.
Should their boots dry up their la
dies. or squaws, take them and chew
them all over, and in ten minutes
they are as soft as glove. Farther
south and in some parts of Labra-
dor the skins are barked and thor
oughly dried and when made up last
much longer. 1t makes good deal
Of difference what species OF seals
are used. The best by far are the
square aipper and the old harp seal.
Could they get leather and soles for
their boots as We do in this country
it would be an improvement for
summer wear, but would not answer
for winter.
A good pair Of skin boots will last
an Eskimo for nearly six months
with constant wear on the ice.-
