What reading level is Hints On House Furnishings book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
7. Olive Green.
8. Indigo.
9. Brown Madder.
10. Gamboge.
11. Vandyke Brown.
12. Brown Pink.
13. Indian Yellow.
As the experiments were very searching, unlike the tests to which colours are subject in the usual light of rooms, it is not necessary to condemn all those pigments ; but the first six ought not to be used. The others are serviceable at times, particularly indigo, which, like woad, is an essential dye-stufF.
It will be remembered that the art of dyeing textile fabrics was an ancient ar...t when Pliny wrote about it in the first century a. D. , yet it is young and fresh to-day when treated as an art. Charles Lamb once complained that owing to the progress of science the stars had become merely astronomical. Science, too, by deducing the aniline dyes from the plants of the coal-measures, has interfered with our enjoyment of colour, for aniline dyes are (for the most part) merely commercial. They have been improved in recent years, no doubt, particularly the yellows and the lakes ; they last much longer than they did, but their general tone is not pleasant in the bulk of the work done with them.
