Tbe boy then took bis Hint-scales nud chips and set to work with them. The Hint cut the bones away, but left the work rough. Then accidentally he Hindi a discovery, for no sooner had be begun to rub the hone truns verbcly on tbe Hint than the bone cut the Hint away. Not Jaggedly, as his liammer-stono would have chipped It, but In long, continuously narrow sur face furrows wherever the edge was caught In the hone at u certain angle. He never finished that harpoon. He turned It about and used lt us an ar row cutter, by tying It to it little rod of wood with a shoestring. He had found out bow the Indians made ur row heads.
