People don't often look back on the early 1900's for advice, but what if we could actually learn something from the Lost Generation?
通常人們不會(huì)為了求取生活妙方而去回顧20世紀(jì)初的年代，不過(guò)如果那個(gè)“垮掉的一代”真的能對(duì)我們有所助益呢？

The New York Public Library has digitized 100 "how to do it" cards found in cigarette boxes over 100 years ago, and the tips they give are so practical that millennials reading this might want to take notes.
紐約公共圖書館將一組100多年前的香煙盒上的“生活妙招”卡片進(jìn)行了數(shù)字化處理，這些卡片上的小貼士實(shí)在太實(shí)用了，二十一世紀(jì)的我們看到了也會(huì)多加留意！

How to Detect Escaping Gas
如何檢測(cè)煤氣泄漏

There is always a danger in trying to locate an escape of gas with a light. The method shown in the picture, however, is free from risk and quite reliable. Paint strong soap solution on the suspected length of pipe and the gas will then cause bubbles at the escaping point, which can be dealt with at once.
用手電筒尋找煤氣管道上泄漏的位置往往存在安全風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。圖中所示的方法則并無(wú)風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，而且十分可靠。在疑似泄漏的煤氣管道上涂一層厚厚的肥皂液，漏氣口的氣體就會(huì)產(chǎn)生肥皂泡，可以及時(shí)加以修復(fù)。
