It IL interesting TO know that the vati-
can has Just been fitted up with an cleo
tric hghtinR plant from the United States
and its magnificent corridors and impos-
Ing apartments can hereafter be seen IL
Illuminated In modern manner. Until
now there has been no way IT lighting the
Vatican except by candles. Gas has never
been introduced into that venerable struc-
ture. There has always been u prejudice
against II among the cardinals. and many
of them were not favorable to an innova-
tion like electric lights, but the Pope IL
progressive and believes in modern i'm
paratus were ordered In the United States
last summer and delivered at the Vatican
In September. Since then IA number OF
electricians have been engaged In setting
up the plant and wiring the different
rooms. 1t In needless to say that the
work has been conducted with the great =
est care and skill by superior workmcn,
many of whom have been sent from
Franco.
The power Is furnished by the waterfall II
Of the Aqua Poala within the Vatican
grounds. The water Is brought TO Rome
by an aQueduct; the fall is foriy-sx fee t
and the flow is sixteen gallons IL second.
A turbine wheel develops an energy of

Nildew and iron rust are almost in
delible unless they are taken out at

Of removing mildew is as follows: Mix
half cup Of soft soap with equal guam
titles OF powdered starch and salt.
Squeeze In the Juice Of lemon. Spread
this mixture on tie mildew spots. on
both sides: spread the spotted cloth on
the grass and let II lie In q strong sun
one day and remain until the next
morning. then turn Il over and lst 1t
bleach another day on this side. Take
the cloth up and rinse 1t we'll. or
course such stains can only be removed
from white goods. as this stain Grad
ieator would remove the color from col
ored soods. Remove iron rust stains
with salt wet to . paste with lemon
Juice. II b said that the Juice Of 4 to-
mato and salt are equally eficacious
Fresh Ink stains may usually be
washed out In clear water, II no soap
has been used on them. and the faint
remnant Of dark color left bleached out
on the grass after moistening 1t with
soda and boiling water. II the stain is
obstinate soak In sour milk. then wash
and bleach II out. An excellent rule
for removing the stsins of shoe black
Ing. ink. mildew and other obstinate
marks Is a. follows: Stir and strain
through . cloth one pound OF washing
soda and half pound OF chloride of
lime dissolved In one gallon OF boiling
water. Put It Into an old jar. not into
. bottle or into anything where the
light will reach II. a. II takes away
some Of the strength. Let Il stand
about An hour. stirring 1t once In q
while before using It. To free any
goods from sweet apple or fruit stains.

stained In this solution until Il IL al

and water This mixture leaves = yell

and II will come out easily with good
