To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
87 Brown is another good color for boxes 'of this kind, to make which, take Indian red and mix it the same aa directed for green, and then add dry lampblack until the desired shade is reached. The paint thus mixed will dry in ten minutes, dead or flat, and it must be varnished over to give a gloss. Furniture varnish is good enough for any work of this kind, and it should not cost over $1. 50 or $2. 00 per gallon. Transfer pictures may now be put on to improve the appearance of the boxes, or ste...ncils such as shown in Fig. 21 may be cut out and made to form a border around the bottom and top edges, using gold bronze instead of paint. After the boxes have been varnished, and are very nearly dry, the stencil may be laid on, and the bronze carefully rubbed over it with a piece of velvet ; the var- nish being sticky enough to receive and hold the bronze, some very nice work can be done. Another simple manner of ornamentation for the boxes is, to cut a piece of wall-paper border, and fit it around the box edge; then before the paint is varnished, stick the border on with paste and let it dry ; then varnish over all paint and paper to help hold the paper in place as well as to give a lustre to the whole work.
