The actual cutting of the stone Is a most difficult process and reipilres great expert skill. In case a full sized model Is made the sculptor sends It to a professional marble cutter, who roughly shapes the block. The general shape Is often given to the block lw»- fore It leaves the marble yard to save the extra freight. The rough carving Is then done by the marble cutter, who mo Hha|s>s the block u» to give It the general outline of the figure to be re- prodtieed.

"In Santiago, tho Chilean capital, where I have Itcen residing for some years, It Is common to hoc people put on their overcoats when they enter-a house and take them olT upon going Into the street," said a visitor to the capital.

When the wine and witty Sir Thom as More was boheadi'd his head was stuck on a pole on London bridge, where It was exposed for fourteen days, much to the grief of his datigh ter, Margaret ltoper, who resolved to secure it. “One day," says Aubrey, "as she was passing under tin* bridge, look ing at her father’s head, she exclaim ed: ‘That head has lain many a time In my lap. Would to Hod It would fall Into my lap as l pass under!' Stic had her wish, and It did fad Into*her lap.” Probably she had bribed one of the keepers of the bridge to throw It over just as the boat approached, and the exclamation was intended to avert, the suspicion of the boatmen. At nil events, she got possession of it and preserved It with great care lira leaden casket until her death, and It is now Inclosed in a niche In the wall of her tomb in St iMiiistau's church, Canter bury.
