PROUD OF HER LITTLE SON
Eskimo Mother Cared Little for
Obedience, but Much for Promis-
Ing Qualities in Her Boy.

There is no such thing as punish
ment in an Eskimo household, writes
DR.. S. K Hutton in Among the Eski-
mos of Labrador" And by way of IL
Illustration he tells of small boy
whom he met one day clambering
down among the rocks and hummocks
that strewed the beach, in open de-
fiance of parental commands.
He was sturdy little fellow, and
quite a baby. I judged him to be
about two years DID, certainly not
more than three, but as he was clad
in the dignity of ridiculous little trou-
sers, l must speak of him as a boy.
He seemed to have escaped from his
mother, and to making for the beach
on an adventure of his own; and when
/ looked toward the line of houses, L
saw a young woman standing at one
of the doors and calling to him.
"Kaigit! kaigit!" (Come back) she
shouted
The child took no notice at all.
"Kaigit, erneral" Come back, my
son!) cried the mother.
This time the child looked round,
but he went steadily on, barking his
little knees against the sharp rock
points, and tumbIing into holes in his
hurry, MIA nia!" he screamed.
I half expected the mother to come
and fetch him after that, for Mai" Is
anything but polite; it was the equal
of very defiant "Sha'n't" that the
child shouted at his mother. She took
no notice; she was beaten, and &C
copied the situation, and turned back
into the house to go on with her
work.
Meanwhile | was interested in the
doings of the small Eskimo boy; there
was some grim purpose in his little
mind, and | stayed to see the finish
of the play. He scrambled on until
he came to a dog that lay summing
itself behind a stone. Very likely 1t
was one of his fathers sledge dogs
against which he had a grievance, for
he caught it fearlessly by the serum
of the neck and beat it with his tiny
fists. The dog, great, powerful brute,
could have eaten the boy whole; but
it made no resistance, simply cover
ing and whining under the little pat
ting blows. Having fulfilled his pur-
pose, the boy administered a last
parting smack, and started on his
journey homeward.
l followed the little fellow to his
home, and found his mother busily
brushing the snow Oft him, and smil-
ing with pride in her hardy little son.
He was disobedient, but what cared
she? He was growing strong and
fearless; some day he would be able
to drive a team of dogs and paddle a
kaiak, and hunt the deer and seals
and walrus He was a proper Eskimo
boy.-Youth's Companion.

PALACES ON PERU PLATEAU
Explorer Tells Of Buried Inca City
Uncovered in JungIe-Had Trou-
BILE with Officials.

New York.-Professo Hiram Bling
ham, head of the Yale Peruvian ex-
petition, which has been conducting
archaeological exploration work in the
interior of Peru, reached New York

Colon
Professor Bingham said the explo-
ration was conducted chiefly at MaShu
Picchu, the buried Inca city, discov-
cred on the previous expedition, which
stands on a plateau surrounded by
precipices two thousand feet in height
The jungle was cleared away and
more than one hundred burial caves
were discovered. Ruins of baths,
houses and palaces also were laid
bare, and practically the entire city
uncovered. Professor Bingham added
that the jungle will soon cover them
again, unless steps are taken by the
Peruvian government to keep them
open.

ham, 1--WE had coed deal of trouble
with the Peruvian government On
the two expeditions 1 had previously
made into Peru had no trouble at all,
