QUEER CUSTOMS IN BoRNEo
Norwegian Explorer Writes Of Some
Of His Experiences In
That Island.

Quaint customs In darkest Bornee
are described by DR.. Carl Lumholtz,
Norwegian traveller. Doctor Lumholt1
says, in part:
We met six natives who had been
hunting the rhinocer0s in the west.
The horn Of the animal when pow.
dered lis in great demand by the Chi.
'nese as medicine, and fetches a high
price. Such an expedition may last for
two months. The hunters carry no pro-
visions, and live on sago and what
animals they can kill. When there is
a scarcity Of food they frequently 60
three or four days merely on water,
and stay the pangs Of hunger with
tobacco. I was told that man would
tackle a rhinoceros with spear
single-handed, though the beast Is
very difficult to kill.
One day we were surprised by the
arrival of q Saputan chief with two
companions in a boat. They brought
with them dog, blowpipe for darts,
and recently killed pig.
Not far from the Muller mountains
we camped upon the Upper Kasao
river, which is inhabited by Saputans.
They are a crude, friendly people,
who, hundred years ago, were mere
cave-dwellers in the mountains to the
east.
At Saputan I had the good fortune
to take q cinematograph picture Of the
ceremony Of the piercing Of . chiefs
ears. It is their privilege to wear a
tigers tooth inserted in hole in the
upper part Of each ear.
The chief was seated and q board
was placed behind his head. Friends
and supporters assisted In the opera
uon, which consisted Of an empty rifle
cartridge being forced through his ear.
Blood streamed down, and the man,
apparently Of a very robust type,
seemed to be near fainting. A medi-
cine man was hurriedly summoned,
and he clapped his hands over the ears
and then, opening them. produced a
small stone. This he threw into the
river. e-
was told that this stone was the
supposed cause Of the chiefs illness.
The scene was brought to 4 dramatic
conclusion by the exhausted chief be-
ing ignominiously carried away on the
back Of q young man. During the aft
ernoon more pebbles were produced BY
the same sleight Of hand, and pig
was killed in order to appease the bad
spirit which had caused the chiefs H.
ness.
The Dyaks Of the Upper Mahakkan
are friendly to strangers, and as the
great rapids down the river form .
natural barrier they seldom receive
Visitors and are little changed BY out
side influence. The Mohammedan Ma
lays, fors instance, have never been
able to extend their influence above
the rapids. e.
Luckily for the Dyaks, and incident
ally for ethnology, these natives pos
sess q fine muscular development. The
women are well formed and move with
grace and freedom. The headhunting
part Of the native religion has been
suppressed by Dutch innu-
ence, and 20 far ~ I could ascertain

More Tobacco---Less Food

Washington, Feb. lO.-Ths use Of
tobacco by our troops In the trenches
plays no small part In the conserva-
tion Of food, say Marine Corps Of
ficials here, who estimate that from
20 to 30 per cent Of food is saved daily
In this manner.
While the authorities admit the
detrimental influence Of narcotics.
they assert that tobacco relieves the
nervous tension OF soldiers who are
under continual shell fire.

Write Soldiers Often

Write Colorado soldiers often and

Of Defense. 1t should make no diff

Frequently they may be unable to

But the receipt by them Of letter and

is one Of the most encouraging and
helpful parts Of camp life. They'll
get the letters and papers even II
they don't answer and 1t will help
Immensely.
