Early Injured to Cold.

Perhaps the most extraordinary of
all methods of warding off cold is that
adopted by some of the tribes of the
Canadian northwest. 1t is a matter of
discipline The boys when young are
first whipped in order to make their
flesh Jingle, and then sent to battle in
the half frozen rivers.
On entering their teens they are
made to lie out of doors at night with
out clothing. The consequence is that
those who survive are able to go
naked in any weather without the
slightest discomfort.
