| forms the principal item in the birth
feast. Other duties that the priest
has to carry out are the cutting of
three horizontal cuts with a dagger
just above the level Of the eyebrows on
the forehead of the dead, and the set
ting of all disputes.
When a couple becomes engaged the
woman spends most Of her time cook
ing dainty and tasty dishes and trot-
ting around with them to her lovers
home, followed by her father with
wine and spirits. Breach-of-promise is
almost unknown, for the youth who
jilts has his throat cut. The para
mour of married woman is hanged on
some remote tree by the red cord he
wears round his neck and the body is
left as warning to others. The
erring wife mysteriously disappears,
and no questions are asked. A man
who deserts his wife also is hanged,
while the woman who deserts her hus-
band is compelled to return to him.
There is a secret ceremony of initia-
ton which every Red Head is COM
PEELED to undergo on attaining his sew
enteenth birthday. 1t involves seclu-
sion for seven days and going without
food and drink for three days. At
the termination of this preliminary
test the youth is taught certain pass
words and grips by which he may rec
ognize his brethren and red circle is
tattooed on his breast. The strange
people live on terms of friendship with
the whole of their nelghbors with the
exception of the Turks, whom they
hate and treat accordingly.
