Glue, Liquid, and Moth Glue.
Take any sized bottle, and half fill it with whisky, and put in nice bits of glue to make it, when dissolved, which it will do in two or three days, as thick as molasses. It remains liquid, and is good for any purpose that glue is used for.
2. For the moth glue, dissolve any amount of glue in as little water as possible, by putting it in another dish of water to prevent burning, then add only one-fourth as much nice white sugar, by weight as you use of glue, and when melted pour upon a slightly greased slab, or tin. Used by wetting the glue in the mouth, and touching the parts to be united and holding together a moment.
3. Glue, Water-Proof. —Best clear glue, 1/4 lb.; new milk, 1 pint. Directions—Soak the glue in the milk 8 to 10 hours; then boil, by setting the "basin in a pan of water, with nails under the bottom of the basin, to prevent burning. Use as other glue. The casein of the milk aids in resisting dampness.
