Old Korea is, in fact. represented by

his hat but mis- head.
The curious visitor learns that there
were in all sixty-five separate and dis

Hermit kingdom. The female population
were almost hatless and the women had
to content themselves with only about
half a dozen styles.
Various as were the styles Of mems
