Hair flaiainK. > Just wiien the mutilation of the dead by tearing the skin from the head be­ gan will never be known, for the origin is lost in the midst of ages, tli^ record extending buck beyond even the myth­ ical period of man's existence. In the book of Maccabees it is recoi'di'd that at the termination of one of the battles of which that bloody history is so full the victorious soldiers tore the skin from the heads of their vanquished foes. This would be evidence that the custom of scalp tuklug was one of the indulgences even of those people of whom we1l(rinerm«isai(f"tT»«r^ Be It as it may, it is an established fact that the custom is a universal one, so far as savage man is concerned. Whether ethnologists can build a the­ ory of a common origin of man from this or not, or whether this can lie taken as an evidence that the Indians are the descendants of the lost Israelite tribes because of their habit of securing mementos of hair from their fallen en­ emies, is something time alone will de­ velop. Be that as it may, it is a fact that all Indian tribes, to a.certain ex­ tent, scalp their enemies who have fall­ en in battle.--Loudon tilobe. The Head aad Feet.
