ANIMAL EYES
Among the most difficult things which
taxidermists have to do are the painting
and preparation of glass eyes ' for the
mammals, birds and reptiles which they
are mounting.
These eyes are made of glass, hollow
within and from the rear so that the in
ner surface may be painted any color de
sired.
As no two animalV eyes are alike, and
as the colors are often complicated and
unusual, it requires a great deal of skill
study and practice, before one is compe
tent to understand the work. The Boys
