BAD DOOR FROM OIL LAMPS
How to Remove Cause Of q Very Free
quent Nuisance.

The most frequent cause for a bad
odor from lamps and oil heaters Is on
account Of bit OF oil that may be
left on the outside Of the lamp, espe-
cially II the lamps be Of nickel or
other metal which are filed through
openings In the tops that are closed
by small metal caps screwed on. The
oil should be carefully wiped off. II
lamps or heaters remain for day or
two unl.ghted, the oil will often soak
through the pores of the metal, so
they should be carefully wiped off
with a dry cloth before using.
II the country housekeeper who uses
lamps will take her lamp wicks when
new and soak them In cider vinegar
she will be pleased with the result.
Don't wiring them out, but hang near
a stove or lay on a plate until dry.
This will double the lighting power
OF your lamps or lanterns. Therefore,
with wicks so prepared, only one
cleaning a week is necessary, for the
wicks won't smoke, and globe and
chimney will not blacken around the
top.
