Text Appearing Before Image: uy provisions. The women are adepts at the loom,weaving beautiful ponchos or mantos, and boldly pat-terned and tinted rugs and saddle-cloths. Now andagain one meets in the streets of Temuco a group ofAraucanians with rugs for sale: there are two or threewomen and the male head of the family, who is cred-ited with doing no work but with careful shepherd-ing of his household. The women have a certain goodlooks; the faces are extraordinarily broad, pale bronzein hue, with a touch of red on the cheeks; the hair isstraight and black, plaited and bound with bright rib-bons. The dress consists of a fold of cloth woundround the waist and held in place by a gaily patternedbelt; a bodice, and a large shawl fastened with a bigsilver topo or pin. A wealthy woman will wear silverornaments across the forehead, in the ears and on theneck in addition to the almost indispensable topo, andno Araucanian will sell these adornments from the per-son, although in hard times they may be taken to thepawnshop.
