Considerable Care and Attention Need-
ed, If the Light Is to Be of the
Best to Be Attained.
Despite the reign of the electrolier
the lamp etlll has many followers.
Many take to lamps because they
must; some because the light It sheds
l* softer, more becoming and better
for the eyes.
When s lamp falls to give a good
light do not waste time reviling the
manufacturer, bet look to your own
duties.
Perhaps tha wick Is crooked, or too
short or not In squarely. Rub off the
top of the wick each day with soft pa-
per, and if tl falls to draw, pull It up
on Che catches or get s new one. Un-
imak sure you can put In the wick oor-
reotly sand the lamp to a store and
have It done properly.
Perhaps a new wick Is leas neeae-
sary than removing the oil with which
It la dogged. Boll In vinegar and
water and dry thoroughly.
Fill your lamp dally. Never light a
i lamp that Is nearly empty, as It In-
creases danger of explosion Fill a
lamp by daylight; If It must be done
after dark keep away from a flame,
and wipe all oil off tho outside.
Even wtth the beet oil a poor light
results If the burner Is not dean.
They should be washed once a month
in a quart of oold water, to which has
been added a tablospoonful of washing
•oda and s Uttlo soap. Boll several
hours and pour off the blackened wa-
ter. cover with fresh boiling water,
soap sad soda, boll five minutes, rlnas
la dean hot water and rub dry 41th
a dean soft doth that Is not ltnty.
Lamp chimneys may be rubbed off
wtth soft paper dally, and when
smoked should be washed In oold wa-
ter and polished wtth s tea towel and
soft paper.

Beet Way to Wash Windows.
There is a right and a wrong way to
wash windows. The work should be
done on a dull day, for when the sun
shines on windows It causes them to
dry streaky, no matter how much they
may be rubbed. Before washing the
windows, dust them off well, both In-
side and out; then wash all the Inaide
woodwork The windows should be
washed carefully wtth warm water to
which a little ammonia haa been add-
ed. Soap should never be used. A
small rlotb on the end of a pointed
stick Is a very' Valuable Instrument
to got the dual out of the corners
When the windows hsve been washed
thoroughly, wipe them dry with a
piece of cotton cloth it ta never good
to uae a linen cloth, as linen will
leave a great amount of lint on the
glass. When the windows are thor-
oughly dry. polish them with tissue pa-
per or old newspaper.
How Weak Parts May Be Strength-
ened and Article Saved for
Future Uae.
Dry rot la common In old furniture,
and sometimes a piece Is too good to
throw away; the weak part can be
strengthened In this way: Scrape
the rotten wood from the piece of
furniture, then spray the part wtth
coal oil. Make a mixture of beeswax,
melted roaln and sawdust and fill
the holes. ffThls will harden and make
a perfect wood cement If the wood
la a dark mahogany color, add some
melted sealing wax to the mixture;
keep It hot when applying It to the
wood. When varnished It does not
show the patch.
When a round breaks In a chair do
not remove the back or leg of the
chair, wherever the damage Is done;
pull the round from the chair, repair
It tf It Is peealble. then with an stager
make one of the holes a half Inch
deeper This will allow the round to
tMp down Into the deepened hole, af-
ter which the opposite end can be
lifted In place and glued.
The piece should lie flat while dry-
ing, or the round will slip out of place.
This saves the trouble of removing
other parts to remedy small break.
