in life, when he had developed into ar

Cutting u Cameo.

1t is said that the stone from which
canoes are cut--onyy and .sardonyx-
is so plentiful on the Uruguay river,
in Brazil, that ships often take it away
as ballast. Nevertheless perfect pieces
Of large size are costly, piece suit
able for large portal costing as much
as S15. This stone is preferred for
canoes because of its hardness and
durability and is suitable for such work
owing to the fact that it comes in lay
ers of contrasting color, as black and
white, black and cream or red and
white. When the cut figure is sunk in
to the stone instead of being raised the
cutting is called an intaglio. The cost
Of these gems is due to the time and
skill required in the work. Formerly
small gem might occupy an artist for
year or more, but with modern ap-
planes the work can be done much
more rapidly Still the ancient work
bears the palm for artistic excellence.
The cutting is now done by holding
the stone against revolving drill
whose soft steel face is covered with
diamond dust. No steel is hard enough
to cut the stone. The utmost patience
and caution and delicate handling are
required, as the slightest slip may be
fatal to the work

Wonderful Mechanical Flies.

It is not necessary to remark, espe-
cially after one reads the following,
that it taxes credulity to the utmost
to believe some Of the old time stories:
John de Montroyal presented Emper-
or Charles V. with an automatic iron
fly which escaped, circled around his
majesty's head a few times and then
alighted upon his sleeve.
Virgilius, bishop Of Naples, made an
iron fly which did not only fly, but
kept all other flies out of the city.
