Mouth Glue, for Bank Notes, &c.

Dissolve Glue in water, and carefully evaporate as much of the water as you can without burning the glue; then add 1-2 lb. of brown sugar to each lb. of glue used: if desired to have a very nice article use gelatine in, place of the glue and treat in the same manner; when the sugar is dissolved pour it into moulds or a pan and cut it into squares, for convenience before it gets too hard. This dissolves very quick in the mouth and is very handy for office or house use. Used to, stick together torn bills, torn paper, &c. &c.
