1. – Glue …  …  …  …  …             3 ounces
Gelatin …  …  …  …  …                3 ounces
Acetic acid …  …  …  …               4 ounces
Water …  …  …  …  …  …            2 ounces
Alum …  …  …  …  …  …            30 grains

Heat together for 6 hours, skim, and add:

2- Alcohol …  …  …  …  …  …     1 fluidounce
Brown glue, No. 2 …  …  …         2 pounds
Sodium carbonate …  …  …       11 ounces
Water …  …  …  …  …  …   .    3½ pints
Oil of clove …  …  …  …  …     160 minims

Dissolve the soda in the water, pour the solution over the dry glue, let stand over night or till thoroughly soaked and swelled, then heat carefully on a water bath until dissolved. When nearly cold stir in the oil of cloves.

By using white glue, a finer article, fit for fancy work, may be made.

3- Dissolve by heating 60 parts of borax in 420 parts of water, add 480 parts dextrin (pale yellow) and 50 parts of glucose and heat carefully with continued stirring, to complete solution ; replace the evaporated water and pour through flannel.

The glue made in this way remains clear quite a long time and possesses reat adhesive power; it also dries very quickly but upon careless and extended heating above 90° C (194° F.), it is apt to turn brown and brittle.
