 of soft hide with consider- 

 able beadwork.' On the

 figures, with four pairs of 

 projections each, repre- 

 sents a centipede. They 

 are also caterpillars and 

 leaves, the green rectangles 

 with the cleft figures at 

 their ends being the cater- 

 pillars ; and the interme- 

 diate yellow rectangles, 

 leaves. In the middle of 

 this side of the bag are 

 four figures representing 

 butterflies.

 those which represent paths 

 in previous specimens, rep- 

 , resents worms ; each of the 

 stripes, longitudinal or
