Note 14 — THE MAGIC OF ART.

This is done easily enough, but the following directions may not be needless for some. Draw a straight line for a base of any length. If you wish to form a equilateral triangle, i. e. one of which the three sides are equal, divide this base line by two, and at the point of division set up an upright line; then from each end of the base line slant against the central upright line one the length of the base. These, of course, will meet at the top, and the triangle is formed. Any other triangle may be formed in a similar manner, the length of the sides being at the choice of the artist.
