LESSON V.

LESSON Y.
The repousse work of your leather portfolio Is
now finished and you probably very pleased
with the result For there is comforting quality
about craftwork and that is that the inevitable
faults of inexperienced workers do not necessarily
destroy the artistic qualities of hand work we see
this in the productions of tribes the quaint
out-of- drawing woodcarving of German and French
peasants and, dare say, your own first attempts
will come under the category.
Tie 1.ext step in leather work will be the pres
ervation and decoration of the embossed surface,
for left In its natural state, the raised surface
figures would soon be effaced.
The first thing to do is to trim off the edges
of your leather with pair of sharp scissors first
marking the lines parallel with your border lines
by ruling them with a lead pencil. Then brush
over the entire outside surface with sheac, either
white or brown, filler. Dilute the shelac
with alcohol if II is too thick In case you wish to
keep he natural color of the leather brown sheac
is better, as it slightly darkens ii. If you wish
to decorate your patterns with colors, use white
shellac q good deal diluted. If you wish to stain
the leather only, you can mix your colors oirectiy
with the sheac To color leather you must always
use shellac as a mixer; otherwise 1t viii peel or
generally tube oil paints for small pieces and
mix the colors with shellac. The small amount OF

LAST WEEKS PRIZE WINNERS.

turpentine they contain does not seem to njure the
sheac. which has alcohol it's vehicle" but
for large surfaces it would be better and cheaper to
buy the dry powdered paint Mix 1t very smooth
first with little alcohol and then add the shelisc.
Wood denatured alcohol is inexpensive and is
used altogether for industrial work The
bronze Iustre powders in beautiful colors and.
judiciously applied produce excellent effects; but
glaring colors and strong contrasts are always to
be avoided in leather work.
For instance If you wish TO decorate the portfolio
you have just finished, do the leaves and fruit in
cool greens and the background in bronze lustre
green. This effect will be harmonious. II you
keep to the natural color Of leather you never
wrong. The trouble Of using color is that it is
likely to away with use, and your temptation
will be to produce effects that will prove to be
garish and meretricious.
When the decoration is entirely finished the
rough side of your leather, which is the inside
Of your portfolio, will have to be finished with
lining, for which pretty chntz silk may be
used. Cut 1t the size Of the open portfolio and
turn in the edges and paste it neatly in it's place
with -four paste. mixed with shellac. Some people
stitch their lining on with sewing machine but
the pasted lining. if carefully pressed and dried will
hold sufficiently well and look much neater

DO THEY TELL THE TIME?

Dear Little Men and Little Women Have read
your letters with great interest every Sunday. and
thought I would try to write good enough TO
be printed.
would like TO tell you about two little kittens
we took In half starved from the street. Some one
must have taken them from their mother and left
them in the street to die for they could not walk
But they are both happy. fat and playful
any kittens. Every night at 10 o'clock sharp
put them down cellar. where they both sleep in
a clothes basket. In spite of the fact that they
have such comfortable beds they do not seem to
want to go downstairs They frisk around all day
and never to tire chasing each other all
through the house, but at 10 o'clock regularly they
both run away and hide because they don't want to
go in the cellar.
i wonder if they tell the time; do you?
