I told my friend that she drew her eyebrows too high. She looked surprised.

This story takes place out on the Wind River Indian Reservation. One night,
three women all began labor at the same time, far from a hospital. Her
family found a deer skin and stretched it out on top of some pillows to
provide for her a comfortable place to deliver. She gave birth to a healthy
baby boy.
Another woman’s family used a buffalo skin for the same purpose and she
ended up delivering healthy twin baby boys.
Friends of the third woman scrambled around and found the skin of a
hippopotamus (a traveling circus had passed through Lander earlier that year
and their hippo had died). They placed her on it and within hours she
delivered triplets – three healthy baby boys.
My geometry teacher said this story validates the rule: “The sons of the
squaw of the hippopotamus are equal to the sons of the squaws of the other
two hides.”
