Explosion of Lamps.

Our ears are every day panied by &C
counts of kerosene lamps exploding and
killing, or soaring for life, men, women,
and children. A simple knowledge Of
the inflammable nature of the fluid would
probably put stop to nearly all the &C
cidents. As the oil burns down in the
lamp, highly inflammable gas gathers
over its surface, and as the oil decreases
the gas increases. When the oil is nearly
consumed, slight jar will often infame
the gas, and an explosion is sure to fol-
low, dealing death and destruction. A
bombshell is not more to be dreaded. Now,
il the lamp is not allowed to burn more
than half way down, such accidents are
impossible. Always I'LL your lamps every
morning; then you never need fear an ex-
plosion. Great economy can be practiced
in regard to the wicks. There is usually
one-third Of wick wasted. By sewing
one wick to this unburnt end, and insert
ing the same, t. q. the small piece, into the
lamp tube, you can burn more of it; but
be sure to take it out before the part that
joins the wick enters the tube. Now turn
the wick on the other ledge and burn
down to the Joined edges. Thus saving
on both wicks is secured To be sure, the
saving is small, but the old adage is very
true A penny saved is penny earned"
Half tea-spoonful of salt added to the
oil Of lamp which holds pint will take
away the disagreeable odor sometimes ap-
parent, and it is said prevent the formation
of that dangerous gas. 1t is a simple
remedy, easily applied. 1t is also asserted
that the salt makes the oil last much long
ar, but We have only heresay evidence
concerning it. Kerosene is the best anti
dots for a severe burn or scald. Immerse
the injured part in cold water for mo-
ment; dry with q soft cloth, taking care
not to rub at all. Then battle in kerosene,
and the terrible pain ceases. We know of
little child who put his foot and leg into
q pail of nearly boiling water. The above
remedy was applied, and in few minutes
the child's screams ceased. We know net
of the philosophy of the matter, but we do
know that it is the most efficacious remedy
for severe burns or scalds in the materia
medica.-Erchdnge

A Personal Argument.

COUNSELOR R, one of the foremost
advocates of the Bar of Central New
York, was himself q collegian, and was
naturally anxious that his Oldest son should
reap the honors of his own alma mater.
The counselor had been quite wild in his
early years, and Master Will manifestly
inherited superabundance Of what the
philosophers of the Josh Billings school
would call "purs cussedness." During
his first year at college, Will was sus-
pended for some fragrant breach Of dis
cipline, and arriving at home he pro-
ceeded to report the occurrence to his
father. Suspended, hey?" the old law

"A pretty beginning you've made Of it. I

his pantaloon pockets and said net word.
