William Parmeto, young architect
who. for want of empl0ymentin his chosen
line. is now making himself generally use
full in a grocery on Montgomery avenue,
near Union street. and who some time
since drew attention to his genius by max
ing very correct picture in groceries OF
the Agricultural building at Sunset City.
has given more evidence of his talent.
He has placed in the window of the firm
for which he is working a reproduction in
miniature of the Fine Arts building CT the
Midwiuter exposition. This building.
which is faithful representation of the
original, has a'frontage of five feet. and is
Of proportionate height. The frame
is of wood and the roof of paste
board. The pillars are of soap. shaped
as are those of which this is the model,
and at the head of each is carved an
Egyptian head. The spaces between the
pillars are made up of California raisins,
laid in such way as to give the impress
sion. without close inspection, that they
were solid blocks. The broad steps that
lead to the main entrance are of bars and
cakes of soap, while the landing is of SOAP
of variagatef colors in Imitation of the
mosaic work at the original building. The
woodwork, outside of the features men,
toned. was covered with a coating of glue.
as was also that portion which constitutes
the corniee work. These sections were
sprinkIed with granulated sugar. rice
and farina in such manner as
to give these parts of the miniature
house the appearance of staff, so literally
used on the principal structures at the
fair. Tile root over the main entrance is
of ground coffee sprinkIed on glued card
board. while the main roof is sage. The
windows are OF colored glass. The struct-
ure rests on an elevation of green tea laid
out so as to represent grass mound. The
whole is an ingenious piece of work
which serves to show to what ends the
human mind will exert itself in selecting
material with which to demonstrate the
power of imitation. At night it is illumi
mated from the interior. and gives a COCO
idea of how the big building will iooI
when lighted up. II has attracted The
attention of almost everyone who passes
up or down the avenue.
