An Industry Which Centres

Buyer How the Duplicates Are
Made and Sold.
All the world knows that Paris la
thu world's art centre; but thore la
no more curious phase of it than thu
moulding of those gorguouB and ofteu
jewelled statues which one seen in
C'sirtliollo churches all the world over,
from London to Buenos Ayres and
from New ork to Sydney.
TIiIh craft is carried on around tho
old Church of Saint Sulplce, In the
wlchhnrhood of the Hue de Kennls
nnii tho Odeon. At one time the Dig
religious statue was a very costly
luxury, and only the wealthy could
afford to place such works of art in
tho churches. Nowadays it Is different
for thanks to mechanical progress any
number of copies of a coBlly orlg
ir.al may he made, so that the hum-lili-c.t
church may buy a statue of its
r at rem saint.
jvrliaps the greatest dealer in all
Paris Is Pacheu, himself a practical
artist and perhaps the greatest auth
ority on hnglology alive. Such a man
Is wealthy enough to commission
August Uodln himself to execute a
&( utile of angel or saint at a IIkuiu
running into tens of thousands ot
dollars. The right to reproduce in
any size and material Is bought from
the artist.
In some cases the sculptor will mere
ly design a statue on paper and Pa
chi.'ii's own staff will execute It In
si oiio, plaHter or wood. Somo of tho
r.rtlsts on tho manufacturer's staff,
l.y the way, draw salaries up to $7,
Ooo a year.
ijist, but not least, it must uu borne
in mind that in spite of this duplica
tion the original statue retains at
Unst some of Its value as a work of
nrt. Paeheu and two or three of the
o'.hor large dealers in these quaint ob
jects' sustain severe losses occasion
ally by following their own Judgment
In tho matter of buying and then
finding that their purchase falls to
find favor.
There Is a good deal of secrecy
about the business, especially in the
matter of the composition of the mod
elling plaster. The Ingredients of this
material are known only to the princi
pal of the house, and after it has
been boiled, pounded and stained it
la thinned down, according to the de
gree of fludlty which the modeller re
quires. . The first thing, of course, la to ob
tain a mould In two parts, from
uhlcti any number of copies may af
terward be cast. In the case of a
life size statue a mould Is obtained in
two parti a bon cheuz or a la gela
tine. In order to produce a mould by
the first named method the original is
entirely covered with little bits ot
plaster four or five centlmetera thick,
thus constituting the mould.
The dimensions and form of the
pieces vary with the lines of the mod
el, and to prevent these falling apart
the artist uses an outer envelope of
plastor. When this Is thoroughly set
the whole Is divided down the mid
dle and back and the mould Is then
ready for use, faithful In every de
tail. Tlut even after the mould has been
secured In this way there Is a good
deal to be done, for the copy Is cov
ered with plaster ridges where there
are Joinings In the mould. These im
perfections must be removed by an
other artist
To model a la gelatine the artist
first makes an outer oaalng of plas
ter, then suspends the original stat
ue upside down and puts the casing
In such a position as almost to touch
the sides of the model. The narrow
space in between is then filled in with
liquid gelatine, which when hard pro
duces a perfect mould.
Even when the replica comes forth,
from the mould and Its glaring im
perfections are softened down much
remains to be done. It must be color
ed, gilded or equipped in accordance
with tho ideas of a parish priest In
Andalusia or southern Chile.
Russia la one of Pacheu's largest
customers, and every year he sells
hundreds of thousands of gayly Jew
elled Ikons to orthodox eburohes all
over the empire, from the German
frontier to eastern Siberia. And oft
en enough, when the statue reaches a
rich Siberian town like Irkutsk or
Tobolsk, the plaster crown will be re
moved and one of pure, gold substit
uted, set with magnlficont uncut dia
monds and emeralds.

WOUSK INSIDE THAN OUT.
Wan Vhut tho Jup Thought When
Ho IU-tul tho Notice.
Prlnco Hasobn, of Japan, referred
at a dinner in Spokane to the clean
liness of his nation.
"If you should visit a Japanese
house," hesoid, "you would bo obliged
to remove your shoes at the door
way. Jnpanose floors aro beauti
fully kopt. I know of some houses
whore thirty or forty servants have
no other duty than tho polishing of
tho floors.
"A young Japanese student,
utudylng in London, had the mis
fortune to live In an apartment
houbo whore tho Janitor did not keep
tho hall In a clean condition. It was
a groat change to him, and he felt
It keenly.
"On the approach of winter tho
Janitor put up in the entrance tho
notice, 'Please wipe your feet.'
"The young Japanese, the first
night he observed this notice, took
out a pencil and added to It, 'On
going out' "
The Trouble at the Stove.
Dr. C. A. Lamson of New Lon
don, while at school at Andover, N.
H., with several other boys, attended
a campflre of the O. A. JR., at Wll
mot. It waa several degrees below
cero, and the stove waa red . hot
when a veteran named Chase came
In. He waa a large man, and very
bowlegged. As he stood by. the fire
"Doc," aa be waa always called,,
stepped up and slapped him on the
back, saying: "Please escuae me,
but I fear you are standing too near
the stove."
The veteran looked at the stove,
then at his clothes, and said: "Did
you think, young fellow, that my
clothes were burning?".
"No, sir; but I saw that your legs
were warping," was the reply.
Skiddoo.
He is a staid old clergyman, not
so well versed In the slang of the
day as might be expected of the
pastor of a church la one of the
most populous of the river wards,
and he was a trifle amased at the
frivolous behavior of some of the
younger members of his flock one
evening last week.
.'An elder has Just concluded a
rather long-winded prayer, and the
pastor, taking up a Torrey-Alux-ander
hymn book, requested tho con
gregation to arise and sing, announc
ing, as usual, the number and title
of his selection, "No. 33, 'Steer for
Homo'. 23."
The dominie Is still puxzled as to
the cause of the laughter which en
sued. Perfectly Safe.
The Town Council in a small Ger
man town had met to Inspect a new
site for a cemetery. They as
sembled at a chapel, and, as It was
a warm day, one of the members of
the Council suggested they should
leave their coats In the bulldlug.
"Somcono could stay behind to
look after them," suggested one of
tho Councillors.
"There is no need of that," said
another. "If we are going out to
tho cemetery together, what need 13
there for one of us to stay behind
and watch our coats T"
Heflection of a Bachelor.
Lots of people won't fall Into
temptation unless they get a chance.
What would people do with all
the money they would have if they
weren't married T
There's no harm In giving evon
bad advice, because nobody will
take any kind.
A man thinks he has an awful
sweet temper not to get mad with
his wife because his taxes go up.
It worrlos a mother to have her
daughter Interested In beaux, but It
worries her more not to have any
Interested In her.
