painted solidly in red, the color being so applied that the marks of the 

 fingers were as much as possible obliterated. A straight black line 

 passed down the center of the face, over the middle of the nose, 

 across the center of the mouth, and terminated at the end of the chin. 

 On the middle of the right cheek was a round, black spot or sun sym- 

 bol, while on the left cheek was a black crescent or moon symbol. On 

 the center of the breast was a similar, but larger, black circle ; it also 

 represented the sun. On the back of the right shoulder was a large 

 black crescent or moon symbol. A black line encircled both wrists 

 and ankles. 



Second Paint. The second paint (see PI. LV., Fig. b) worn by the 

 woman, and which in the ceremony of 1903 was worn in the afternoon 

 of the altar day, was as follows: The body, except the face, as before, 

 was painted solidly red. The face was painted black, the color being 

 applied with the palm side of the wrist by Sage-Woman, who always 

 painted her. On the center of her breast was a black sun symbol, 

 and her wrists and ankles were encircled with black bands. On the 

 back of her right shoulder was a moon symbol. 



Third Paint. The third paint of the woman, worn as the first 

 paint of the second day, was exactly like the paint which she wore 

 on the preceding evening, and which has been called her second paint. 



Fourth and Fifth Paint. Her fourth and fifth paints, the second 

 and third of the second day, were the same. (See PI. LVL, Fig. a.) Her 

 body was painted red and the black sun symbol was applied on her 

 breast and a black moon symbol on her right shoulder, black bands 

 encircling her wrists and ankles. About the face was a band of 

 red, lighter in color than that of the body, and so applied as to form 

 the symbol of the morning star. The space within this red line was 

 filled solidly in green. 



PAINTS WORN BY THE LODGE-MAKER. 



The Lodge-maker's paint in general was like that worn by all the 

 dancers, the only exception being his first and second paints; that is, 

 the first and second paints of the first day, and of these the first was 

 like that worn by his wife, and already has been described. 



Second Paint. The second paint of the Lodge-maker was a 

 modification of the first variety of the so-called Hail-paint, and was 

 worn as the second or afternoon paint of the first day. (See PI. LVL, 

 Fig. b.) A band of red was drawn around his waist at the line of 

 the naval, forming a boundary between the lower half of his body, 

 which was painted solidly in red, and the upper half, which was 

 painted solidly in black. On the black ground on the breast was
