In the land Of the Eskimo, raw mea.
is their principal food, the diet vary
ing only with the hunting seasons. In
seal-hunting time seal meat is the daily
bill Of fare; in caribou-hunting time
caribou is the daily diet of the Eski-
mos. Though Tie Eskimo may have
both seal and caribou meat on hand at
the same time, his peculiar beliefs for
bid him to eat seal meat at caribou
time and vice versa. Neither may he
eat land meat such as caribou when
on water or ice, on which his village
is located; he must live only on the
flesh of the seal. When he takes to
the land in the spring he must not eat
seal flesh. He must not cook seal
meat under q fire Of land mosses.
There Is no wood in the Arctic and
moss forms practically the only land
fuel. Neither must he cook caribou
meat under seal-oil flame. The
breaking Of either of these rules will
call down upon his head the wrath Of
the departed, who are always very
evil spirits, says the Esklmo.--Ex-
change.
