This economy is the result of the fol lowing process: The heat from the fire, after acting on the boiler, is conducted by means of a fuse and .other appliances into the fire-box, and, again passing through the lire, the smoke and the 'heat vildelf eseape by the ordinary chimney or' flues, being, thus carried, in connection with the smoke, through the fire..
