146 BRITAIN AT WORK. The tint which distinguishes certain editions of the cheap evening papers is imparted by pouring a little dye into the vats. But if you visit one of the mills where coloured papers proper are made, for writing and various other purposes, you find that the effect is secured not by any such simple means as this, but by thoroughly dyeing the rags before they are disintegrated. I must note, too, that the high gloss that is given to paper upon which “ process ” illustrations have to be printed is obtained by the process of super-calendering, the paper being run through special calendering machines after the paper-making machine has finished with it. The best paper of this class—as, for example, that which is used for Britain AT WORK—undergoes the further process of “ coating,” one of the latest and most in- teresting of paper-making operations. But this, with much else that merits notice, I must leave undescribed. W. W. Hutchings. READY FOR USE. A BIG STORK OE PAPER AT THE SITTINGBOURNE MILLS.
