The Inner Rhodes, or half canton of Appenzell, is reputed to be the most conservative 

 district in Switzerland, and it has retained many old customs and costumes ; those of the 

 women, as can be seen from the picture, are very quaint and attractive. The industries of 

 the canton, most of them carried on in the homes of the country folk, are the manufacture 

 of cotton goods, muslins, and embroidery, the latter being in a very flourishing condition.
