HOW TO MOLD FACES.
Life Masks May Be Taken Easily and

Without Danger.
Human life masks may easily be taken
by any one who is at all precise, neat
and willing to devote two or three hours
to learning and experimenting in this in
teresting work Life masks are always
more satisfactory than death masks, Civ
ing the setting of normal rather than
a fixed expression. There is absolutely
no danger, although it is difficult to con-
vince some subjects of the truth of this
statement. When taking a life mask,
the subject is told to sit naturally, with
the head held slightly forward and the
eyes gently closed. An apron is put over
the clothes for protection, and tuft of
cotton is placed in each ear to keep out
the plaster.
The plaster being mixed by dropping
it into water, one is ready to begin. The
mixing of the plaster to the proper con-
sistency is one of the most important
parts of the work. a little salt may be
added to make it set faster little
glue to delay the hardening. Bluing or
other color is usually added so that
when one comes to chisel the mold from
the cast the two parts can be easily dis
tinguishcd.
The plaster is splashed over the face
with a SPOON knife or stick. The breath
ing of the subject draws the plaster up
an eighth or u quarter of an inch into the
nostrils. Thus the mask receives the
full impression Of the nose without any
distortion of that organ by tubes being
inserted in it. The plaster is prevented
from being drawn up too far by an un-
conscious careful control Of the breath.
As the plaster, in setting, reaches the
consistency of cream it may be applied
with knife blade, and so the mask is
built upon until the mold has the desired
thickness.
Care must be taken to have all parts
Of the face completely covered while the
plaster is thin and will take in the finest
lines. The mask must be built strongly
where it encircles the face and extends
from the forehead to the chin. But un-
der no consideration should the harden
ing plaster be pressed so much against
the thin film first applied as to crush it
against the face. 1t is evident that no
plaster should be spread over the open
ings to the nostrils. Within III or IL
minutes after the plaster is mixed and
2 or 3 minutes after it Is fully applied
the mask may be removed by pulling
gently forward and downward. The
subject must hold his features quietly
during the operation, for even smile
would break the thin film Of plaster from
the face. After removing the mask it
is allowed to harden thoroughly; then it
is soaked in water in which washing
soda, alum or some similar substance has
been dissolved. This prevents the cast
from uniting with the mold. Plaster Of
paris is then run into the mask. and
when it has become set the mold is bro
ken off. leaving a cast of the face.-Sci-
ence Siftings.

A QUEER CURE.
He Drove the Toothnche Away With
Hammer and Nails.


81 ran across strange freak in small
town in South Carolina" said returned
traveller the other night. 1.-THE town was
small and lacked many of the improve
ments and things really needed. One aft
ernoon l had violent toothache, and
there was no dentist about to offer ME re-
lief. The pain was agonizing. 1t was
new to me. l wandered about and drift
ed to the lone drug store and asked the
druggist for some old pain killer. He
gave sickly grin and said he didn't have
thing in the shop.
81 can stop the pain all right, though,
he told me, and l promptly offered him
s. if he would.
THE man took me to n porch at the
rear of the store and called to n hoy for
hammer and nails. | got huify at this
call, for ! thought the guy had gone mad
and was going to punch out my painful
grinder, but he assured me that he would
not touch me. He went to post, which
looked as if it already had 100000 nails
in it, and wrote four letters-'A, c, II, L.
"'Now. just watch me- he said, and
think of what am doing
With that he took a hammer and be-
gan driving a tenpenny nail. He gave
fancy llcks. When the nail was driven,
he gave the same sickly grin and asked
about the pain. Still there | said, and
then he took the nail and soon had the
letter 'C' covered. BY that tire the pain
was disappearing, though 1 would not
admit it. The quack continued to ham,
. MGR until the last nail was gone. and, on
my word. the pain had disappeared. l
waited few moments for it to return.
but it did not, and up to this day the
tooth is sound. The druggist did not
want to accept the S., but | insisted.
Talking to the man afterward, he told
me that he cured hundreds of cases of
toothache for people around the inclose,
as the driven nails could show. The ne
groes were the most frequent callers, and
none of them had to pay. 1t all seems
strange and funny, and l cannot talk for
the others, but that man cured my tooth
ache by the simple remedy of the ham
mer and nails. New York Sun.

LOVES REORGANIZATION.

Dear heart, did we meet long ago, ",
And walk and talk together thenf =
I think it must have happened so;
If so, wonder where or when.
Oft when you blush and smile for me, :.
When your eyes droop before my gaze,
For one swift breath seem to see
Some dim. sweet scene from other days.
A CLEAN of gold from that stray tress
OF hair which the sun has shone,
A loving touch, a soft cares,
Or in your voice some minor tone,
Brirgs to me, like the faint, clear chime
OF silver bells on summer air,
The memory of bygonc time,
OF life and loving otherwhere-
know that have loved you, dear,
Fer since first began TO be; 1,
NJ heart had missed you many year,
Until at last you came to me;
And then knew that had met
The one l sought, and by your side
stay, with nothing to regret,
Because my soul is satisfied.

A QUEER INDUSTRY.
Oyster and Clam Shells Do Not Go to
Waste.

OyStcE anu SAhh DO NOt UO "
Waste.
A singular and but little known in
dustry is carried on in New York city in
the sale of oyster and clam shells. The
dealers in this commodity pursue their
calling in so transformations q way that
it attracts no attention. From the eating
houses where oysters and clans are con-
sumed the year round the shells are col
lected by persons who either carry on
that business for themselves or are in
the employ of the wholesale dealers. 1t
seems incredible how large an area of
ground can be covered many feet deep
with the conglomeratc of shells and for
eign matter that is unavoidahiy collected
with it and apparently amalgamates
without destroying the characteristics OF
the harder material.
Seeing a number of carts loaded with
shells moving toward the same point
would induce the supposition that more
reclaimed land was being filled in with
material that would exclude the possi-
bility of such land ever being used as
market garden. or it might be taken for
granted that another dump heap was al
lowed in some of the still unoccupicd
upper west side lots But if curiosity
