A recent colonial report on the Cnrlbs of Dominica is interesting. Very mysterious is the origin of the llorce savages, now almost extinct, who were in possession of the smaller West Indian islands when the first white man hurst "into that silent sea." They showed a distinct Mongolian character, and It would he hard to distinguish a Cnrib Infant from a Chinese child. Some twen ty years ago a Chinaman who had drifted to Dominica declared the Cnribs to be his own people and married a pure bred Carlb woman. The resultant child showed no deviation from the native type. Today they have dropped their man eatinp ways, but in the sixteenth century they scoured the Spanish main In search of human food, and from ?orto Itico alone are said to have taken more than 5,000 men to be eaten. Though Spaniards, Frenchmen, Dutchmen, negroes, or Arrowaks, were all meat to them, yet these Carlbs seem to have shown preference for certain nationalities. Davis, for Instance, In his "Ills- , tory of the Caribby Islands," tells us that "the Cnrihhcans have tested of all the nations that frequented them and nllirin that the French are the most delicate and the Spaniards are hardest of digestion." I.e.horde also, In one of his Jaunts in St. Vincent, appears to lmve overtaken on the road a cominunleative C'arib who wns beguiling the tedium of his Journey by gnawing at the remains of a boiled human foot. This gentleman only ate Arrowaks. "Christians," he said, "give me the bellyache." A Weak rei sink Indigestion is often caused by overeating. An eminent authority say# the harm done thus exceeds that from the excessive use of alcohol. Eat all the good food you want butdon'toverload the stomach. A weak stomaoh may refuse to digest what you eat. Then you need a good dlgcstant like Kodol, which digests your food without the stomach's aid. This rest and the wholesonio tonics Kodol contains soon rcstoro health. Dieting unnecessary. Kodol quickly relieves the feeling of fulness and bloating from which some people suffer after meals.
