 Still another form of 

 offering is the sec- 

 tion of cane tube 

 charged "wdth vegetal 

 incense found rather 

 generally in the 

 Pueblo region, but 

 especially in the 

 southern portion. 



The cigarette is 

 filled with a mixture 

 of herbs, which, 

 when burnt, pro- 

 duces a pleasant 

 odor, but generally 

 the tubes packed 

 with the mixture 

 have not had fire put to them and obviously the offering is by 

 implication. In some cases, however, the cigarettes have been 

 lighted at the time of offering, as in certain shrines observed in caves 

 on the Blue River, Arizona, these usually being the larger canes of 

 functional size and not the miniature tubes which occur in such great 

 profusion. 



The cigarettes (fig. 10) are girdled with strands of white or dyed 

 cotton cord; miniature blankets and sometimes beads or feathers are 

 attached, the object inthe mind of the worshipper being to duly clothe
