How to Silverplate Ribbon.

"Never heard OF isilverplated ribbon.
did you? No9 Thought not; for it's
something quite new. This prayer
book mark is good specimen of the
work. The silver cross and text on
the deep purple ground produce quite
a handsome effect Don't you think
so? A picture could be painted in
silver the same way. In short, there
is no end to the fanciful designs that
might be made in silver on silk. The
process? Oh! it is simplicity itself
First you make solution of nitrate OF
silver. to which you add little gum
arabic to prevent it running. Then
with quill pen or camefs hair pencil
You draw your design on the silk.
When the drawing is dry hold it ov er
a vessel containing water. zinc and a
little sulphuric acid In short time
the silver will be reduced and will adj
here quite strongly to the fabric. the
cesigns standing out clear and bright.

A-wishin' at the time he'd come fer US to 60 to
bed,
With our last prayers, and our last tears,
sence little Wesleys dead!
