A FRIEZE, FOR INSTANCE.
We will suppose the worker wishes to
snake a frieze for a room. Take cloth,
either cotton or woolen, or even cheap
wall paper of a plain color. Make a pat-
tern of card -board cut into the desired
figures, lay it on the foundation and draw
the pattern by going around the card-
board with chalk, pencil or whatever
will leave,a mark. Now cover the brick -
ground with a coat of glue or varnish
and sprinkle it with the dust or powder.
A good liquid glue for this purpose, as
it dries slowly, is made from good glue
and nitric acid --one teaspoonful of acid
to a pint of glue. This holds well, and
if kept tightly corked will remain in a
liquid state for a long time.
FIRST RESULTS.
4../ihen the entire background has been
gone over and is perfectly dry, the 'fig-
ures themselves may be treated in the
same manner with wool dust of a con-
tristing color or with metallic 'lustre
paint applied with a brush. The result
will be a very effective frieze. First
experiments, however, should be made
on a smaller scale. A Common pine or
,r-, other wood box may be made quite
' tasteful by these simple means.
THE PATTERN IN RELIEF. with satin. A more charming, girlish

mixing into the glue powdered clay,

lief is obtained, then sprinkle with the
`dry cloth dust. If the mixture used for
.the relief should become dry, a final
coating of pure glue will prepare it to
receive the powder. Paint or gild the
outline of the pattern.
