TEETH FILED BY FILIPINOS
FOR REAJJTY,S SAKE

Among the curious customs of the
Philippine Islands one of the most
peculiar is that of ''beautifying'' the
teeth by filing and blackening them,
which prevails among the Bagobos of
Mindanao. Both boys and girls of this
tribe undergo the filing process be-
fore marriage, and this usually occurs
while they are still very young. The
youth who is to be thus decorated sits
on the ground beside the native dem
tist, gripping between his teeth a
stick of wood to keep his mouth open.
The dentist then files each tooth
down to a stump or else cuts or breaks
each to point, as preferred by the
beauty-seeking patient. All that is left
of the teeth is blackened by a powder
secured from a certain native tree
