The Eskimos, as a rale, use nothng bat the sealskin, deerskin, musk )iea, arctic hare and bird skins for >oih their feet and tlieir clothing. the first place they-skin the hare, lean and dry it and chew it all over, ind when it is thoroughly dry they :ut it up and make socks to wear nside of their seal or deer skin >00ts (in their language called kanaks). The sealskin is taken, the ' - i- -1 J - CO - J t ai cieaueu uu, n wuuucu name nade about a foot on the round arger than the skin, and the skin is hen laced tightly around a frame md kept in the sun until thoroughy dryThen the squaws or women clean ind set about cutting it up into >oo'ts, which are generally made tbout two or three sizes too large. L'he bottom, or sole, is cut to the ihape of the foot in one piece, the lppers are joined and sewed to the idge of the bottom, and the fore >art is sewed to the leg nearly traight across the instep. The leg s cut out according to the length ranted, with a receiving string in he top to tie over, thus keeping the now out. The arctic Eskimos do not use xark or tan of any kind for their kins. It cannot be procured, and ,hey do not know how to use it. Should their boots dry up their laiies, or squaws, take them and chew hem all over, and in ten minutes hey are as soft as a glove. Farther outh and in some parts of Labrak>r the skins are barked and thor>ughly dried and when made up last ouch longer. It makes a good deal >f difference what species of seals ire used. The best by far are the qua re flipper and the old harp seal, imld they get leather and sole9 for heir boots as we do in this country t would be an improvement for nmmer wear, but would not answer or winter.
