Her husband breaks to pieces the soaked middle parts of salmon, 33 
and | he measures what he is breaking so that they will be the right 
size for our mouths; || and his wife pours oil into the oil-dishes; | and 35 
after the man has finished breaking what he is working at, | the guests 
finish singing.' Then (the man) takes up two| 
—————— : 5 
oil-dishes and ane them |in the farside of the dish, | 
in this manner:? See . As soon as (the guests) 
finish, they wait ||for =x x * ae next course. 40 
Split-Backs.—(The split-backs are eaten without being boiled or 1 
blistered. The man takes the ‘‘split-down’”’ and folds it up and dips 
it into the oil and puts it into his mouth.) He does not chew it 
before he |dips it into the oil, for it is really soft. . . . After | 
the men have finished drinking, they wait for the second course. | 
That is the end of this. For they never soak this split-down, || be- 
cause it does not get hard, althoughit may be old. Even if it is two| 5 
years old, it never gets hard, for it is really worked thoroughly. There- 
fore | it keeps always soft. That is the end. | 
Soaked Backbones, boiled or blistered (1).—(The woman) takes | the 
soaked backbones out of the water in the soaking-box, and puts them|| 
on a mat that is spread at the place where she is sitting. Then the 10 
man | breaks them into three pieces and puts them into the kettle. |
