[A
MAN'S
OWN
HOSE
IS
STILL
THE
BEST.]
2679.
Ducks.
Ducks
may
be
carved,
when
large,
the
same
as
geese;
but
when
young,
like
chickens.
The
thigh
joints,
however,
lie
much
closer
into
the
trunk
than
those
of
fowls.
2680.
Hares.
Hares
should
be
placed
with
their
heads
to
the
left
of
the
carver.
Slices
may
be
taken
down
the
whole
length
of
the
back;
the
legs,
which,
next
to
the
back,
are
considered
the
best
eating,
may
then
be
taken
off,
and
the
flesh
divided
from
or
served
upon
them,
after
the
small
bones
have
been
parted
from
the
thighs.
The
shoulders,
which
are
not
much
esteemed,
though
sometimes
liked
by
sportsmen,
may
be
taken
off
by
passing
the
knife
between
the
joint
and
the
trunk.
When
a
hare
is
young,
the
back
is
sometimes
divided
at
the
joints
into
three
or
four
parts,
after
being
freed
from
the
ribs
and
under-skin.
2681.
Remarks.
Sufficient
general
instructions
are
here
given
to
enable
the
carver,
by
observation
and
practice,
to
acquit
himself
well.
The
art
of
carving
does
not
consist
merely
in
dissecting
the
joints
sent
to
table,
but
in
the
judicious
and
economical
distribution
of
them,
and
the
grace
and
neatness
with
which
this
distribution
is
effected.
Every
dish
ahould
be
sent
to
table
properly
garnished
(where
needed),
and
the
carver
should
preserve
the
neatness
of
the
arrangement
as
much
as
possible.
2682.
Dyeing.
The
filaments
from
which
stuffs
of
all
kinds
are
fabricated
are
derived
either
from
the
animal
or
vegetable
kingdom.
We
recognise
the
former
by
the
property
they
possess
of
liberating
ammonia
on
being
treated
with
potash;
while
the
latter
afford
a
liquor
having
an
acid
reaction
under
the
same
treatment.
The
animal
kingdom
furnishes
three
varieties--silk,
wool,
and
the
furs,
&c.,
of
various
animals;
the
vegetable
kingdom
also
three--flax,
hemp,
and
cotton:
all
of
which
require
certain
preliminary
preparations
to
render
them
fit
for
the
dyer,
which
do
not
come
within
our
province,
our
space
only
admitting
of
a
rapid
glance
at
the
production
of
the
various
colours.
