The pivotis then withdrawn, and the seam is touched along its length withthe smallest possible quantity of borax. The proper manneruse borax in fine work is to grind it, mixed with water, on a sito a cream-like consistence, and apply on the point of a camels-hair brush. A very small piece of pure gold is placed in theseam, and the tube is held in the flame of an alcohol a sufficient degree of heat is reached, the gold will flow-along the seam and form a joint without obstructing the insidepassage for the pivot. The pivot is then inserted, and the tube
