One often observes when read ng OF the
demise of a celebrity that a mask was TAX

few people know how this Is carried out.
They might have some idea that plaster OF
Paris Is put over the dead mans face, but
there the idea ends
A mask from life Is taken almost precise

that much greater care has to be used. as
uhe subjects life hangs on a very thin
thread, or, TO be more precise. two small
quilts. 1t requires great deal of nerve

small quill is now inserted in either nostril
to allow the subject to breathe through,

base to keep the liquid plaster from intrud-

handy. so as to be able to cut Off the tops
OF the quilts, should by any chance the
plaster splash up ard cover them.
All being ready few cheering words are
spoken TO the unhappy victim. and the
plaster Is mixed. This Is carefully poured
or sprinkled over the features. The plas-

about five minutes the mold IS strong

eager to get a mouthful OF fresh air once

TO the two side pieces which relieves the
joints made by the thread. The top OF

slightly downward. so as to withdraw the
