To make a good silvering solution, procure 2oz. of the best crysta!-lised silver nitrate and dissolve it in 1 qt. of distilled water. Also procure 2oz. of best potassium cyanide and dissolve it in 1 pt. of distilled water. Add this a little at a time to the silver nitrate solution, and stir well each time with a glass rod until no white curdy precipitate is caused by the addition of a few drops. Allow the white curds to well settle down, then pour off all the liquid. Pour on clean water, allow the curds to settle again, and repeat the process several times; finally, drain off as much of the water as possible. Dissolve these white curds in a solution of potassium cyanide and add a little surplus to make it work free.y. Use anode plates of pure silver, and work cold in a stoneware or glass vessel with current from two Sinee cells, or from two or three Daniell cells.
