This was not so unreasonable as it may seem; for if the man could not make rain when it was wanted, what was he good for? The ceremonies of the pow-wows or medicine-men of the North American Indians, are less brutal than the African ones. These soothsayers, like the Obi-men, prepared charms for their customers, usually, however, not so much to destroy others as to protect the wearer.
