short legs or stable support to keep it in

ono end slightly projecting, to which is at-
tached a vessel of water with atop cock con-
duit from the water veaeel into the pipe.
Before reaching the steam chamber the
water passes through the important part of
the invention, the part that constitutes or
contains the great discovery. By means of
it the water may pass into the steam
chamber, while the steam can not pas. out.
The parb of the pipe containing the steam
ohamber is within the stove, although a
small parb may be without if desired. To
tide the heat of a moderate wood or coal
fire is applied, so as to heat the steam to a
high temperature, say 300 or nearly 400 de-
grees, when lb passes oub of a small orifice
immediately into the midst of a bed of coals
or flame from burning wood or coal, when it
le at once raised to the required tempera
ture, 400 degrees or more, to be immediate-
ly decomposed into its gases -oxygen and
hydrogen—which instantly become flame.
Only a moderate summer fire of wood or
coal will be required the ooldeat day in winter
the gaseous flame furnishing the balance of
the heat needed in the coldest room. The
capacity for reducing heat in burninging five
times greater than carbon, or about 2,000
degreee,one may form some idea of the capa-
city of this little contrivance; for producing
heat. Be increasing the temperature of the
gas pipe to about 400 degrees thevapor may
e decomposed into its gases before exit
from the pipe, and in such oases it is emitted
in a jetof blue flame In either case the
oxy-hydrogen flame is easily produced and
