Discovery of lakes Rudolf and Stefanie; a narrative of Count Samuel Teleki's exploring & hunting expedition in eastern equatorial Africa in 1887 & 1888. 232 THROUGH TUEKANA AND SUK chignons resembling those of the Eeshiat already described, whilst from the centre of some of these chignons rises a fine elastic bar or rod, either erect or bent backwards, this decora- tion being also often supplemented with a few white ostrich. MIDDLE-AGED TURKANA MAN. feathers painted red. Middle-aged men dress their hair in a very original manner, forming it by persistent Huffing out and entangling, with the aid of a long wooden needle, into a kind of bag from one-half to three-quarters of a yard long, but not more than from two to four inches broad. This hair-bag is adorned with several ostrich feathers and a long piece of wire.
