between | the cedar-sticks, in this manner, | and he takes 
the cedar-bark and ties it on near the end of the spoon- 
spreader | into which the spoon is put. He bends back 
the point, | and holds it by putting it into cold | water, so 
that it sets. Then it does not bend back again, but is 
kept in position | as it gets cold. Next he takes off the spoon-opener, 
and || he takes dried dog-fish skin and rubs it all over it, so that it 
becomes very | smooth inside and outside. When it is quite | 
smooth, it is finished. Now the black horn spoon is finished after 
this. 
The Making of Horn Spoons (2).—Let me first talk about the | horn 
spoons, how they are made. When | the mountain-goat hunter goes 
out to hunt, the spoon-maker asks | him to break off the horns of the 
goats that he will get, for || the mountain-goat hunter only wants the 
tallow and the | kidney-fat and the meat. He does not want the 
bones and the | horns. Therefore the spoon-maker | asks him for 
these. In the morning, when daylight comes, the | mountain-goat 
hunter goes hunting; and after he has killed || a mountain-goat, he

the skin around | the bottom of the horns; and when he has cut off
