When dry, the ceiling is ready for whitewash, which is to be made by mixing whiting and water together till quite smooth, as thick as cream. Dissolve half an ounce of glue in a teacupful of water, and stir it into the whitewash. This sine, as it is called, prevents the white or colour rubbing off the wall, and a teacupful is enough for a gallon of wash. Stone colour is made by mixing a Uttle yellow ochre and blue black with the size, and then stirring it into the whitewash ; yellow or red ochre ore also good colours, and with vermil- llon or Indigo, any shade may be pro, pared, according to taste.
