will allow. Hold all these folds flat and close, and with a small
pinching cord give one turn round the middle of the cracker and
pinch it close; bind it with pack thread as tight as you can, then in the
place where it was pinched prime one end and cap it with touch-
paper.
When these crackers are fired they will give a loud report at every
turn of the paper: if you want a great number of these, you have only
to cut the paper longer, or join it on to a greater length; but if they are
made very long you must have a piece of wood with a groove in it
deep enough to let in half the cracker, which will hold it straight while
you are pinching it.
Rockets.

Another very good one is, 3 ounces of iron filings, 4 of powdered
charcoal, 8 of sulphur, 16 of niter, and 64 of meal powder. If a
smaller quantity is wanted divide each proportion by 2, if a still

silver rain may be made of 2 parts salt prunella, 8 sulphuret of
antimony, 8 sulphur, 8 meal powder, and 14 niter, in all 32 parts.

parts are taken, with 13 of sulphur, 15 of chlorate of potass, 4 of
