double boiler is painted over the model with a soft brush. The work is started at the lowest parts; each stroke of the brush leaves a film which immediately becomes hard; the painting or splashing of the paraffin is continued until about one-fourth of an inch is covered over the model. A coat of this thickness will re- sist any pressure from the plaster which at this stage is applied over the paraffin and in such thickness as to insure the safe handling of the mold. Before the plaster becomes entirely hard the threads are drawn to cut the mold into manageable parts as in the ordinary "piece mold." In the matter of dressing the figures it was soon found that plaster alone was too brittle and that for clothing or objects of regalia each specimen must ha\e a different treatment. Woven cloth and skins are copied in burlap or Caracas cloth which, dipped in a warm solution of glue water, is hung upon the plaster figure and allowed to stift'en there after adjust- ment in a natural arrangement of folds corresponding to pose and action. This garment can then be co\ered with a mix- ture of plaster and glue, and almost any texture imitated l)y applying the sticky composition witli a modeling tool or THE CEREMONIAL BEAR DANCER
