 it may be approximately shown by the three portraits in our text. 

 The first one represents a pure Teutonic blond type with the rela-

 northern Europe. The second is the average type found in Baden, 

 probably about half Teutonic and half Alpine by race. The 

 breadth of the head compared with its length as well as the round- 

 ness of the face appear to be well marked. It should be added 

 that it was characterized by brown hair and blue eyes. The third 

 portrait, unfortunately not of a native of the most retired upland 

 of the Forest, is nevertheless fairly typical of the extreme breadth 

 of head form which there prevails. In this particular case the 

 face is rather long for the breadth of the head, a combination not 

 uncommon in southern Germany. For reasons given in the pre- 

 ceding paper, this facial feature may be regarded as less impor- 

 tant than the proportions of the cranium itself. Judged by this 

 latter standard, there is every indication that the Black Forest
