# --description--

D3 methods can add styles to the bar labels. The `fill` attribute sets the color of the text for a `text` node. The `style()` method sets CSS rules for other styles, such as `font-family` or `font-size`.

# --instructions--

Set the `font-size` of the `text` elements to `25px`, and the color of the text to red.

# --hints--

The labels should all have a `fill` color of red.

```js
assert($('text').css('fill') == 'rgb(255, 0, 0)');
```

The labels should all have a `font-size` of `25` pixels.

```js
assert($('text').css('font-size') == '25px');
```
