And the Sunda Islander thereafter goes about with a self conscious smile revealing a truly knock-me-down dental display, a black and gold symphony. It Is a common trick among the semlclvlllzed to color the teeth. In Macassar dark brown Is the popular hue, and in Japan among the unenlightened classes the teeth of wives are always painted black.
