Making a Life Mask. 4

A wellknown New Yorker entertain.
ing some friends at dinner showed
them his life mask, then told them
with feeling how the mask had been
made They put me in a chair" he
said, tied a towel around my head,
plugged my ears with creased wool
and stuck a quill in each nostril. Shut
your eyes, said the workman, drawing
near with ladle and a large steaming
tureen Of pink plaster Of paris of the
consistency OF thick soup; and he
slapped the stuff on my face in great
ladlefuls. / could feel it running down
my collar and over my chest just as
soup would have done. / motioned
with my hands wildly. The man
laughed. That's all right, boss, he
said, and kept slapping the hot, horri-
bic, Shiny stuff upon me. He stopped
when my face was incased in a half
inch coat OF plaster. He told me 1t
would harden in a few minutes. 1t
did, but the minutes were awful. AS
the plaster dried 1t seemed to shrink,
shrinking my skin with it. And the
heat OF the thing! And the difficulty
In breathing through the quills stuck
In my nostrils! Then very carefully,
very slowly he drew the hardened cast
from my face. l gripped the chair

WhX the Stars Twinkle

Although the twinkling OF the stars
is commonly referred to, they do not
twinkle at all The stars are really
suns that throw out light, just as our
sun lights the earth.
When the rays of light from the
stars strike the air which surrounds
the earth they have to pierce many
little particles which are always float.
Ing about in the atmosphere. 1t Is this
Interference between us and the
source of light which gives the ap.
pearance OF twinkling.
On certain nights the light of the
stars will appear SO bright and clear
as to attract particular attention. This
Is because the air is so clear there is
less interference than usual with the
rays of light in reaching the earth.

When Phillips spotted her l had to

had been logged up instead Of wear

girl, and the thought of Phillips win
ming her heart from Ned and then go
ing complacentiy away was too much
for me.
OF course the girl couldn't resist the
open admiration Of the city man. Dor
othy wasn't experienced enough to be
able to distinguish the gold from the
glitter, and Ned hadn't the airs and
graces Of that man Phillips. Day by
