WHAT SAVAGES THINK OF TWINs.—In Africen, according to Dr. Robert Brown, (Races of Mapkind,”) the birth of twins is commonly regarded as an evil omen. No one except the twins themselves aud their nearest relatives, is allowed to enter the hut in which they first saw the light. Tue chil- dren are not to play with other children, and even the utensils of the hut are not permitted Sat g th cenall an; a one else. a = is Dot allow: talk to any one no! jonging to her own family. Lf the children both ive to the end of the sixth year, it is supposed that nature bas accommodated herself to their existence, and they are thenceforth ad- Taitted to association with their fellows. Nor is this abomination of twin births re- stricted to Africa. In the isiand of Bali, pear Java, @ woman who is 80 unfortanaye as to beartwins is obliged, along with her Anore oramong the tombs: until she Is pint shore or among unt IS put fied. The Khasias of Hindostan consider that to have twins assimilates the mother to the lower animals, and ose of them is quently put to death. An exactly similar belief prevails among the native tribes of Vancouver Island. Among the Ainos, one Of the twins is always Killed, and in Hrebo, = Gate, Nae the twins and the ee are put to death.
