their heads, or wear their shawls over their heads ; very oftea also 

 they go bareheaded. Very few have hoods, hats, or bonnets. About 

 a dozen have American ladies' hats, though but few wear them much. 

 The school-girls all wear hats. 



Gaps, hats. — The men wear always American hats or caps, some wear- 

 ing one and some the other; but hats are more generally worn. There 

 are a very few hats which are made by the Makah Indians which 

 are worn by the old Indians. They are strong and water-proof. 



Head-dress of ceremony. — They wear none now. 



E. — Body-clothing. 



Clouts, cinctures, smocks. — They wear none now. Formerly they had 

 a clout around the waist made of cedar bark, it being a band with a 

 fringe extending nearly down to the knees. After the English came, 

 they made them of blankets. 



Apro7is. — The women sometimes wear plain ones. 



Breeches. — American ones are always worn by the men and older 

 boys, except occasionally a very old man does not. 



Shirts. — The men commonly undershirts and woolen uversliirts ,• but 

 on Sunday many appear with white ones. 



Jackets, Mouses, parkas, and tunics. — A few jackets bind blouses are 

 worn ; almost all have coats of some kind ; and, for rainy and cold 

 weather, a few have cloaks, all of American make. Vests too are com- 

 mon. 



Wo7nen''s undericear. — They buy American material, and make their 

 own clothes. First a chemise, and second a petticoat, and sometimes 

 two or three.

 with the skirt ; but almost all wear gowns made by themselves of Ameri- 

 can calico and woolen dress goods, according to the season. 



Mantles, capes, and the like, — A very few have cloaks. 



Shawls. — American woolen and "Dolly Varden" shawls are very com- 

 mon. Often they have several.

 except by very old persons.
