pasted side down on the mount. Lay
a piece of tissue-paper over the face of the mount and roll the
print smooth with a squeegee. A smooth glass bottle can be used if
one has no squeegee, or a new wooden rolling-pin answers every
purpose. Lay the print when mounted between two pieces of clean
blotting-paper and put a weight on it; as the prints are mounted
they can be laid one on top of the other with blotting-paper
between. Be very careful that no paste is on the face of the print.
The object in moistening the mount is that the print may not make
it shrink; drawing-paper, being lighter weight than a card-mount,
is apt to do this unless it is first moistened as directed.
