here is the article iii question:

unsatisfactory while all is apparently
in good order. II should be borne i'll
mind that. though the wick is but very
gradually burned, ii is constantly be-
coming less able to conduct the oil.
During several weeks some quarts OF
oil are slowly filtered through the
wick, which stops every particle of
dust or other matter that will. With the
utmost care, be i'll the best kinds of
oil. The result is that the wick.
though ii is of sufficient length and
looks as good a. ever, has lis c nduc;-
ing power greatly impaired. as lis
