can declare almost positively that it will not be easy to find better ones for any purposes. I will describe these fully.

First of all, stone-ink is divided into two great classes. One is thicker, being used for drawing on stone. The other is more fluid, being used for transfers.

The following mixtures of the first kind are the best: —

(i) White Wax 8 parts

Soap 2 parts

Lampblack I part

This ink does not really serve for writing or drawing on the stone, but is used mostly for coating those places that are to be protected from the etching fluid. If this ink is needed in a thickened form, the wax should be heated in an iron pan till it burns and the combustion should continue till one half of it is consumed. The longer it burns, the harder will be the remnant.

(2) White Wax 12 parts Tallow (Ox Fats) 4 parts • Soap 4 parts Lampblack I part

(3) Wax 12 parts Shellac 4 parts Soap 4 parts Lampblack I part

(4) Tallow 8 parts Shellac 8 parts Soap 4 parts Lampblack I part

(5) Wax 8 parts Shellac 4 parts Mastic 4 parts Soap 4 parts Lampblack I part

(6) Wax 8 parts Tallow 4 parts
