dye with 1-1/4 lb. Brilliant rhoduline red B and 5 oz. Auramine I I.
_Bright Violet._--Mordant with 2 lb. tannic acid and 1 lb. tartar
emetic; dye with 1-1/4 lb. Rhoduline violet and 3 oz. Methyl violet B.
_Rose Lilac._--Mordant with 2 lb. tannic acid and 1 lb. tartar emetic;
dye with 3/4 lb. Rhoduline violet.
_Yellow._--Mordant with 3 lb. tannic acid and 2-1/2 lb. tartar emetic;

then dye with 2 lb. Brilliant green.
_Red Violet._--Mordant with 1-1/2 lb. tannic acid and 1-1/4 lb. tartar
emetic, then dye with 8 oz. Methyl violet 4 R.
The same method may be followed with all the brands of Methyl, Paris and
Hoffmann violets, and so a range of shades from a purple to a pure
violet can be dyed. The 4 R to R brands of these violets dye reddish
shades, the redness decreasing according to the mark, the B to 6 B
brands dye bluish shades, the blueness increasing till the 6 B brand
dyes a very blue shade of violet.
_Bright Sea-Green._--Mordant with 1 lb. tannic acid and 1/2 lb. tartar
emetic, then dye with 2 oz. Turquoise blue G and 1/4 oz. New Victoria
blue B. With these two blues a very great variety of tints and shades of
blue can be dyed.

_Dark Green._--Mordant with 3 lb. tannic acid and 2 lb. tartar emetic,
then dye with 1-1/4 lb. Malachite green and 3/4 oz. Auramine I I.
By combination of Brilliant green or Malachite green (which are the
principal basic greens) with Auramine in various proportions a great
range of greens of all tints and shades, from pale to deep and from very
yellow to very green tints, can be dyed.
