NegritO. Australian. POlynes1an.
The clean-cut face Of the Pueblo comes
as something Of a relief after the long row
Of utter savages. This type Of the Amcri-
can Indian face is very familiar. The face
here shows the square head. with long,
coarse. wavy hair, low broad forehead high
prominent cheek bones and powerful jaws
belonging to all the tribes Of American
Indians.
Round the next corner. on the north side,
we find the heads of the Eskimo, Plains
Indian and Samoyede. The face Of the
Eskimo reveals the low standard Of civili-
zation attained by these northern fisher
men. 1t is essentially stupid, it is almost
q british. face and the granite has done
well in its revelation in the face before US
of the uncleanliness of this curious peo-
pie. The Plains Indians is, like the Pueb-
los, face We know WELL
The difference in the mode Of life be-
tween the nomadic Plains and domes-
tic Pueblo Is clearly shown in the two
faces. The one Is peaceable. apathetic and
home-loving, the other proud, adventure
some, cruel and immovable. The features
all possible difference in expression of coun-
tenance of the Indian from New Mexico
and the Indian from the western plains.
The next group Of heads on the north side
are Monaghan types. They are the Corean.
Japanese and Aino The Corean and Japan
esq., as well as the Chinese which is one
Of the next group, round the corner. are
also quite familiar. The features of the
COrean are more prOnOunceuly MOHsOiidH
than those Of the japanese. whom he most
resembles. The face Is broad and fiat, the
cheek bones standing out laterally. The
eyes are oblique. and the distance between
them Is great. The eyebrows form low,
imperfect black arch. The complexion of
the Corean Is tawny, the ears are large
and stand out from the head, and the hair
Is lank and thin. The Japanese and
Chinese have both the same general fea-
lures as the Corean. The Japanese head
here shows the peculiar mode of hairtlress-
ing this people adopt The hair Is shaved
Off about three inches in front. combed up
from the back and sides and glued into a
tuft on the top of the head. where II is
confined by pins of gold or tortoiseshell.
The Aino, the "hairy-faced' man. is a
native Of the most northerly islands of
Japan.
Rounding the last corner to the west side
again one finds the heads of the burmese.
Thibetan ard Chinese The Burmese has
the Mongoloid characteristics common to
the Indo-Chinese races. They have 4 stout,
active well-proportioned form. they have a
short head, broad skull and fiat face. q
brown complexion, with black, coarss. lank
and abundant hair The Thlbetan's Is the
same type of face as the Burmese, though
stronger. The features Of The Chinese, the
third head of this last group, are too famil-
lar to need any description. He wears the
braided queue in the fashion Of his country.
The last head to be examined Is that OF
the Russians, which adorns the window on
the north side Of the central front pavilion.
