specimens OF art The people esteem
them much more highly than any ar

the older they are the more they are
regarded. Some of them have names
known all over the Samoan group.
The oldest Is called Moe-e Fulfill. or
The man that slept among the creep

fact that Ii had been hidden away for
years among the creeping convoivuius

The possession OF one OF these old
mats gives the owner great power-in
fact, IL is a titie deed to rank and prop
erty. from the samoan standpoint, says
Harper's Weekly. IL Is no matter IL
the mats are tattered and worn out.
Their antiquity Is their value and for
some or the most cherished Of them
large sums of money would be refused.
