A good chocolate Colour is made by the addition of blue 

 black in powder, or lamp black, till the colour is to your 

 mind, and a lighter ground may be formed by adding ground 

 white lead. 



Note. By ground lead is meant white lead ground in oil. 



Yellow is prepared with yellow ochre in powder, in the 

 same proportion as the Spanish brown. 



Black is also prepared in the same proportion, using lamp 

 black or blue black. 



To whiten Linseed Oil, 



Take any quantity of linseed oil, and to every gallon add 

 two ounces of litharge ; shake it up every day for fourteen 

 days, then let it settle a day or two ; pour off the clear into 

 shallow pans, the same as dripping-pans, first putting half 

 a pint of spirits of turpentine to each gallon. Place it in 

 the sun, and in three days it will be as white as nut oil.
