Evening Republican, Volume 15, Number 42, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 18 February 1911 — To Have Hot Water. [ARTICLE]
To Have Hot Water.
Place the socket of a wall bracket lamp just high enough above a table so that the top of a hand lamp chimney will be flvq or six inches below it. Make an arm of round wire or small piping long enough to extend out over the lamp and to this hang a picture hook on which hang a small teakettle or pail. In this enough water for the needs of the night can be kept hot without boiling, and will be ready at an instant’s notice. As a lamp is a necessity in a house where there is a youngster, the cost of this device will be nothing, for the blase of a small burner will provide sufficient heat The lamp chimney should not be nearer than two inches to the bottom of the kettle.
