candlestlok Architecture.

At certain quaint little restaurant in Greenwich village, \. r., there are some self-m8de candle decorations which are oddly interesting. The can dlestieks started out by being the ordl- nary slim brass affairs, but the arp pings of countless candles have been allowed 10 accumulate until round the base of every stick there has formed an intricatey delicate grotto of White wax. The formation is about ten or twelve inches in diameter in each case, the wax has run down and hardened into tiny caves, craggy preeipiees anu other features, in miniature, similar to the great stalactite caves. streaAs of soft green have been added to the white by Che verdlgris forming on the brass and coloring the wax as 1t meits. The wax grottos have grown to such proportions that the candlestieks are entirely concealed and the lighted can dies seem to rise out of the raofs ot the dainty caves.
