The bill is gamboge yellow, and the iris blackish olive. The female of this species is of a tolerably uniform coffee-brown colour, but has a blackish head, and the nape neck, and shoulders yellow, indicating the position of the brighter colours of the male.

As there had been, before the children came, two independent lives behind the gamboge door, so, with the occupation of the nurseries, there were, as it might be, three independent households, mingling, at selected times, only for purposes of happiness. It was perfect.

Keep them here till next ship till they are as yellow as gamboge, then send them home revenge in that." Thus did the old gentleman mutter loud enough for Newton to overhear. A few minutes more were spent in perambulation, when he threw himself into the chair. "I think, my young acquaintance, you appear to be interested for these relations of mine; or at least for one of them."

And are you beginning to feel at all settled in, I don't know any name for your house; we have called it just the 'Yellow House' as it had no special interest, being uninhabited. But I suppose you will give it a name?" "If we can decide on one!" said Bell Merryweather, laughing. "The trouble is, there are so many of us to decide. I want to call it Gamboge: brief, you see, and simple.

But Gamboge! and ripped out brazenly as it had been? No! A thousand times No! "Calvin," I said sternly, "aren't you ashamed to use such language before me and before your little sister?" But here the little sister sank beneath her true woman's level by saying: "I know worse than that Dut!"

It was of a clove-brown colour, beautifully mottled with white, and its bill and eyes were of a bright gamboge yellow. Like all of its tribe that winter in the Arctic wilds, it was feathered to the toes. Lucien reflected that this species lives more in the woods than the "great snowy owl," and, as he had heard, is never found far out on the Barren Grounds during winter.

The peace of every home in civilized society rests ultimately on the kitchen, and the peace of half the homes known to Harry and to Rosalie was in constant rupture by upheavals thence. Not so behind the gamboge door. Rosalie always granted it to men that, as was commonly said, servants worked better for men. Men kept out of the irrational creatures' way; that was about it.

They should be tinted with sepia. The lower or horizontal clouds are tinged with ultramarine. Force is acquired by adding sepia to indigo, in the cold parts, and sepia with lake to the glowing parts. Grass is washed with a mixture of burnt sienna, indigo, and gamboge; that in shadow has more indigo. Grass and bushes may be brought out by a tint of gamboge; distances may be heightened by lake.

The most useful are: lake, burnt ochre, gamboge, indigo, light red, sepia, Prussian blue, sienna, and burnt umber. The gray colour is made of burnt umber, indigo, and lake; each rubbed separately in a saucer, and then mixed in a fourth saucer as to produce the exact colour a warm gray. This is thinned for the light tints, as sky and distances.

Examples of application are as follows: Golden Yellow. Finished lacquer, 10 parts; gamboge, 1 to 3; solvent, 5. If utensils are lacquered with this thin lacquer and dried for about 2 hours in an air-oven at a temperature of 120° C. a beautiful hard coating of golden colour is obtained. Black. Black lacquer, 10 parts; solvent 2 to 4.
