Coming, from a country where driftwood was abundant, to adistrict where it is very scarce, modifications have been necessaryin the mode of life of the Tiiski, of which we have, as alreadyshown, some historical record. At present the method of con-structing their houses, sledges, and many other articles, is verysimilar to, though not quite identical with, the mode of the Chiik-chees.
