THE LADY OF PERFECT FASHION IN THE UPPER CONGO BACKWOODS
The hand and knife of an artist are seen in her fine scar patterns;
her belt and double tails are the latest thing in totem ornament, and
she has spent two days in getting her wooly hair into permanent plaits.
They are now solidified with palm oil and camwood dust, and she means
them to last, without re-dressing, for at least three months
