Some
wear
the
hair
divided
in
four
parts
,
covered
with
cushions
,
and
in
plaits
tied
like
a
chignon
or
arranged
in
pan-handles
on
the
front
of
the
head
with
bunches
of
red
feathers
.
Others
have
the
hair
in
bent
horns
sticky
with
red
earth
and
oil
,
like
the
red
lead
used
to
close
the
joints
of
machines
.
In
these
masses
of
real
or
false
hair
is
worn
a
bristling
assemblage
of
skewers
,
iron
and
ivory
pins
,
often
even
,
among
elegant
people
,
a
tattooing-knife
is
stuck
in
the
crisp
mass
,
each
hair
of
which
is
put
through
a
"
sofi
"
or
glass
bead
,
thus
forming
a
tapestry
of
different-colored
grains
.
Such
are
the
edifices
most
generally
seen
on
the
heads
of
the
men
.
The
women
prefer
to
divide
their
hair
in
little
tufts
of
the
size
of
a
cherry
,
in
wreaths
,
in
twists
the
ends
of
which
form
designs
in
relief
,
and
in
corkscrews
,
worn
the
length
of
the
face
.
A
few
,
more
simple
and
perhaps
prettier
,
let
their
long
hair
hang
down
the
back
,
in
the
English
style
,
and
others
wear
it
cut
over
the
forehead
in
a
fringe
,
like
the
French
.
Generally
they
wear
on
these
wigs
a
greasy
putty
,
made
of
red
clay
or
of
glossy
"
ukola
,
"
a
red
substance
extracted
from
sandal-wood
,
so
that
these
elegant
persons
look
as
if
their
heads
were
dressed
with
tiles
.
It
must
not
be
supposed
that
this
luxury
of
ornamentation
is
confined
to
the
hair
of
the
natives
.
What
are
ears
for
if
not
to
pass
pins
of
precious
wood
through
,
also
copper
rings
,
charms
of
plaited
maize
,
which
draw
them
forward
,
or
little
gourds
which
do
for
snuff-boxes
,
and
to
such
an
extent
that
the
distended
lobes
of
these
appendages
fall
sometimes
to
the
shoulders
of
their
owners
?
After
all
,
the
African
savages
have
no
pockets
,
and
how
could
they
have
any
?
This
gives
rise
to
the
necessity
of
placing
where
they
can
their
knives
,
pipes
,
and
other
customary
objects
.
As
for
the
neck
,
arms
,
wrists
,
legs
,
and
ankles
,
these
various
parts
of
the
body
are
undoubtedly
destined
to
carry
the
copper
and
brass
bracelets
,
the
horns
cut
off
and
decorated
with
bright
buttons
,
the
rows
of
red
pearls
,
called
same-sames
or
"
talakas
,
"
and
which
were
very
fashionable
.
Besides
,
with
these
jewels
,
worn
in
profusion
,
the
wealthy
people
of
the
place
looked
like
traveling
shrines
.
Again
,
if
nature
gave
the
natives
teeth
,
was
it
not
that
they
could
pull
out
the
upper
and
lower
incisors
,
file
them
in
points
,
and
curve
them
in
sharp
fangs
like
the
fangs
of
a
rattlesnake
?
If
she
has
placed
nails
at
the
end
of
the
fingers
,
is
it
not
that
they
may
grow
so
immoderately
that
the
use
of
the
hand
is
rendered
almost
impossible
?
If
the
skin
,
black
or
brown
,
covers
the
human
frame
,
is
it
not
so
as
to
zebra
it
by
"
temmbos
"
or
tattooings
representing
trees
,
birds
,
crescents
,
full
moons
,
or
waving
lines
,
in
which
Livingstone
thought
he
could
trace
the
designs
of
ancient
Egypt
?
This
tattooing
,
done
by
fathers
,
is
practised
by
means
of
a
blue
matter
introduced
into
the
incisions
,
and
is
"
stereotyped
"
point
by
point
on
the
bodies
of
the
children
,
thus
establishing
to
what
tribe
or
to
what
family
they
belong
.
The
coat-of-arms
must
be
engraved
on
the
breast
,
when
it
can
not
be
painted
on
the
panel
of
a
carriage
.
Such
are
the
native
fashions
in
ornament
.
In
regard
to
garments
properly
so
called
,
they
are
summed
up
very
easily
;
for
the
men
,
an
apron
of
antelope
leather
,
reaching
to
the
knees
,
or
perhaps
a
petticoat
of
a
straw
material
of
brilliant
colors
;
for
the
women
,
a
belt
of
pearls
,
supporting
at
the
hips
a
green
petticoat
,
embroidered
in
silk
,
ornamented
with
glass
beads
or
coury
;
sometimes
they
wear
garments
made
of
"
lambba
,
"
a
straw
material
,
blue
,
black
,
and
yellow
,
which
is
much
prized
by
the
natives
of
Zanzibar
.
These
,
of
course
,
are
the
negroes
of
the
best
families
.
The
others
,
merchants
,
and
slaves
,
are
seldom
clothed
.
The
women
generally
act
as
porters
,
and
reach
the
market
with
enormous
baskets
on
their
back
,
which
they
hold
by
means
of
a
leathern
strap
passed
over
the
forehead
.
Then
,
their
places
being
taken
,
and
the
merchandise
unpacked
,
they
squat
in
their
empty
baskets
.
The
astonishing
fertility
of
the
country
causes
the
choice
alimentary
produces
to
be
brought
to
this
"
lakoni
.
"
There
were
quantities
of
the
rice
which
returns
a
hundred
per
cent.
,
of
the
maize
,
which
,
in
three
crops
in
eight
months
,
produces
two
hundred
per
cent.
,
the
sesamum
,
the
pepper
of
Ouroua
,
stronger
than
the
Cayenne
,
allspice
,
tapioca
,
sorghum
,
nutmegs
,
salt
,
and
palm-oil
.
