His shield is of rattan ; his garment is of bark cloth. Spear and shield are going out of use in the Congo both for war and the hunt because of the im- portation of guns. The flintlock is the only gun allowed to be sold to natives, although a limited number of percussion-cap guns are granted to chiefs Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work.
