Xmas was celebrated many hun.

It was in honor Of Tammus, one
Of the Babylonian sun gods. They
had three, Baal, Ashtareth and
Tammus. and built many temples in
their honor. The letter IT" was
changed to tx" as this was consid-
cred a sign of the holy entrance into
the temple Of the gods Of the sun.

Though the Philippines have made
marked strides in culture, industry
and civilization in recent years. as
Eet forth in their recent pleas for in
dependence. some natives OF the
islands. as do a few Indian tribes in
tho United States, still present strik-
ing subjects for study by theologists,
according to a bulletin from the Ma
tional Geographic society.
The Eegritos are generally con-
s,dered to be the true aboriginies of
the Philippines. and are racially
sharply distinct from most other
numerous tribes of the islands, says
the bulletin. which Is based on a COM
munication to the society from Dean
c. Worcester.
they are OF low, sometimes even
dwarfish. stature, with very dark
brown. or black. skins. Their heads
are covered with closely curling hair
and many OF them have abundant
wolly boards, They often have So
called 'pepper-corn' hairs, distributed
very abundantiy over the bodies.
lips thick. their arms disproportion-
ately long. ~
They do not tattoo their bodies
but ornament them with ss,ar pat
terms. produced by cutting through
the skin with sharp pieces Of bamboo
and rubbing dirt into the wounds thus
formed in order to infect them and
make good big scars!
The men wear small ciouts, and
the women short skirts reaching from
the waist to the knee. They are
very fond OF brightly colored cloth,
scarlet being preferred. but fndiv-
duals who cannot get cloth, and there
are many SUCH use instead The So
called, bark cloth'tso widely Nmploy-
ed by Inhabitants of the islands Of the
Pacific. Men frequently shave the
crowns Of their heads In order to let
the heat out!'
throughout the year they subsist
chiefly on vegetable products, which
they obtain from the virgin forest,
and on nsh and game They arc won

their proficiency ends. They are good
at nothing else, and their intelligence
is Of an exceptionally low order.
Many of the Negritos point their
front teeta, but not by filing them. as
Is commonly SUPPOSED A chip O.:
wood Is held behind the tooth to be
operated upon; the point OF a bolo is
placed In such position as to slant
across the*corner OF tooth to be re-
moved, and sharp blow on the bole
chips piece from the tooth. The
opposite corner is similarly vperated
upon. and an artistic point is thus pro-
iuced.
The music and dancing Of the
Negritos are especially interesting.
Many of them know how to make
and to play both the bamboo nose
nute and a kind Of jews harp made
from bamboo. Some Of them use
crude stringed instruments fashioned
from single joints Of bamboo, the
DtrinSs being cut from the outer LAYER
Of wood. to which their ends remain
attached. and being raised up by
means or bridges The distribution
Of the several kinds of musical in
struments above mentioned II more or
less local. hut the bronze tom-rom, or
sansa. Is in universal use, although
some Negritos play II with q drum
stick, while others beat it with their
hands. Many OF their dances are
pantomimic. Their singing liz often
weird in the extreme.
There are many stories current to
the effect that Negritos are often to
be met with wandering through the
forest In state OF absolute nudity.
and that they indulge in various
obscene dances. | am satisfied that
the former series of tales are without
foundation In fact. Objectionable
dances are very rare among the wild
peoples of the Philippines. although
they are sometimes INDUCED in BY
the Moros. and are common among
the Manobos OF Mindanao.
The .head-hunting peoples OF the
philippines are apparently. limited TO
northern Luxon. None al the warltIse
hiI tribes inhabitinE other parts of
he archipelago are known 10 take the
heads Of their victims."
