Gasoline cleans grease from leather
and silk much better than any other
fluid which can be bought for little
money. Grease melts in the gasoline
and is carried away. So mothers and
daughters use it for washing gloves
and ribbons and party dresses.
One who uses gasoline for any pur-
pose in a room in which there is a
candle. lamp or fire, is likely. very
likely, to be badly burned. A lighted
cigar or pipe carried into a room in
which ii is being used, will explode
the air. The ghost like vapor will
hunt for something to ignite il.
A beautiful girl of fifteen cleaned
her long kid gloves on a porch and
had them on her hands drying. Her
brother. as he left the house, struck
a match 10 light a cigar. In the ex-
plosion which followed one OF her
arms was so deeply burned that she
can never straighten 1t, and her face
is disfigured for life.
A man had a pipe in his mouth
while pouring gasoline from n can
to another, was badly burned by an
explosion.
Gasoline should only be used for
washing out OF doors and away from
buildings and smokers. When the
washing is done the gasoline should
be thrown on loose ground which will
drink it up at once. Several eX-
blossoms have come from pouring the
dirty gasoline down the hole in the
sink. A large number have come
from pouring it in the slop bucket
where it floated and gave off vapor.
Putting gasoline in the water in a
wash boiler is ;lways followed by an
explosion.
Silk in dresses, ribbons an gloves
nay, if rubbed hard make a spark
which will fire gasoline.
Clothing can be cleaned by ammonia
or benzine soap without danger. A
safe substitute is g%elantinizad bezine
in which % per cent benzine is added
to a mass of soap. water and ammonia.
It can be handled without spilling
the amount of vapor given off is slight
and the amount of infiammahle
material in it is small.

the case of Patti Louisa Rosa, lead
ing support with the Lyman Twins
this season.
Miss Patti Louisa Rosa should nave
2 natural equipment for stage work,
as both her mother and grandmothers
were fcotlight favorites of more than
ordinary degree. The. young lady is
a daughter OF the Jolly Patti Rosa,
remembered with much affection by
the majority of the amusement loving
public, and Patti Rosa was a daush-
ter of Madam Cerito. a famous figure
on the Italian stage in the last gen.
Grafton. Skill in dancing was a great
gift in common with all three of the
family.
Madam Cerito was the greatest
premier danseuse of her day, and she
had the reputation of being able 10
make more changes in costume with
greater CELEBRITY than any premier be-
fore or since. She had a dozen or
more characteristic dances and a diff
ferent presentation with each. Madam
Cerito put her daughter on the stage
when the afterwards famous Patti
Rosa was a child four years old.
Patti Rosa is remembered best now
as a comedienne, although her knowl-
edge of dancing steps was endless.
Patti Louisa Rosa has inherited
much of her mothers c1arm and
grace. and has made an enviable rep
utation with numerous farce comedy
productions.

DESTRUCTION AND DEATH.

In the United States no hour passes
without a house being set afire by a
gasoline explosion,
The igniting of the yapor from gaso-
line barns to death more than twenty
persons every week and dangerously
burns more thar sixty. Its burns
are so deep hat it leaves ugly scars.
II has marred the beauty Of many a
maiden but most the burned were
mothers.
The gasoline sounds a fire alarm in
advance and the blistered person
whose carelessness caused the ex-
p~losion, runs screaming for help.
This brings neighbors and the fire
department at once. The fact that
the alarm is given quickly, and the
added fact that the heat from an ex-
plosion is sustained but for al instant
so that only light materials in which
a blaze is easily extinguished are

from gasoline fired by $3.50, which is
less than one-fourth the average cost
of all fires. Still the annual loss from
gasoline fires approximates $4,000, 900.
Gasoline is the lightest and most
dangerous fluid derived from petro-
leum. Naptha, which is little less
dangerous, is usually called gasoline.
Both continuously give off a vapor
that makes an explosive Of the air
with which it mixes.
A canful of air or a ro0mful of air,
which has mixed in it as much as one
twelfth of the vapor of gasoline, is
more dangerous than a canful or
roomful of gunpowder. Air with that
much or more gasoline vapor in it
explodes harder and makes a hotter
blaze than gunpowder. Gunpowder
win stay where it is put and can be
seen. Gasoline vapor being a little
heavier than air falls to the floor and
cannot be seen. In very rare instanc-
es gasoline explosion have occurred
next to the ceiling. This is possible
when the air OF the room is saturated
with moisture, as on wash day,
so the vapor will float in il.
If a painful of gasoline is left in a
closed room for a few hours, the house
is blown to pieces as soon as a match
is struck in the room, or if a flying
spark enters i. When vapor on the
floor spreads until il gets under a gas
Jet or lamp, or stove, it Is drawn up
by the current of air by the
heat of the blaze, and there is an *
plosion. All other ignitable gases
being lighter than air rise and are
born away.
