Dangerous Incan escent Bulbs

Many people are apt to think. because
an incandescent lamp is inclosed in a glass
bulb. and its incandescent filament cam
not, therefore, come into contact with any
thing inflammable, that the bulb can be
used under all conditions and in contact
with all kinds of materials with but little
danger.
That this is mistake has been proved
by several fires in shop windows where the
hanging incandescents have been allowed
to touch lace or other more or less filmy
materials with which the window was
draped.
Testimony on this subject can also be
given by rash youth who, during the
zero weather OF last winter, went to sleep
with burning incandescent lamp wrapped
in handkerchief at his feet. An hour
afterward his SAUNDERS were rudely broken
by a sensation of extreme discomfort at
the tips of his toes; the room was full
of smoke. and the smoldering bedclothes
were on the point of bursting into flame
But the record in the demonstration of
what heat an fncandescent lamp is capa-
BILE Of throwing out Is broken in a photo
graph lately published Of a wooden parti-
ton through which large hole had been
bored simply by the pressure upon it lat
orally of an incandescent lamp.
Some mechanics who were at work in the
room wanted the light closer, and twisted
the flexible cord around a nail in a freshly
finished wooden partition. The lamp. with
its bulb resting on the WALL was left burn
ing when the workmen left at 5 pm.
When they came back to work at
a hole larger than itself through the wains-
coting. and was hanging clear of contact
with the charred wood, which had, fortu-
nately. burned itself out.
