Care of Lamps.

A teaspoonful of soda added to n
quart of hot soapsuds will edectuaIly
cleanse the dirtiest lamp. Dry quickly
after washing. Lamps TO be quite safe
must be clean, dry and filled to within
an inch of the top. Never attempt to
light half empty lamp which has not
been used for some time. The space
in the reservoir often becomes filed
with an explosive gas.
