Letting Out tn. Evil Spirits.

The pigmy natives of the Andaman
islands. In the Bay Of Bengal. believe
that every child Is born with evil
spirits within him. So the mother,
every two or three months, lets the
spirits escape through cuts which she
infiicts on the body of the child. As
a result, all the men and women of the
islands have their entire bodies COW
cred with scars.
The women Of the Islands wear the
skulls of their dead husbands as loving
souvenirs. When a man dies the little
people blow on his face to say good
by. bury him. and then desert the
camp In which they are living. After
several months they come back. dig up
the bones and wash them in the sea-
Finally. they hold a dance In honor
of the dead mans skull, paint 1t with
