A large portion of the fuel, therefore, passes off in the shape of smoke, clogging up the flues of the stove sous to impede the draft and injerfiere with she baking,-,ror of invisible gas which com bines with the lime sad so destroys the tuor tareofehe chimneys, loosening thehricks.ami exposing the dwellings to the danger of itra, The introduction of an additional supply ,of cold Elil,..would cool the gas below the iediting temperature, but by the preprresp plication alaive en's fire, of air pnevionsdy heated to a temperature of se‘cral hundred degrees ( which is one (4' the prominent ke tones of theputent), the. gases are inflamed in numerousjets, and tiseir combustion in sufficient to hest the oven, even if the draft tltiopgh the t4' . -elia.mber is entirely closed. In tdditioe to the ordinary direct draft under the grate and through the fire-eham bet', the gas-burner has an additional draft through the top plates, which is of itself SUE 'Went to maintein exeab,otiosi, . The upper draft not only consumes the gases, but it helps to strengthen and preserve the centre pieces, which are most exposed to the direct action of the fire, and which are made double instead ofThe usual single plates. By means of this draft alone,. all the operations ufectok ing con be carried on when the fuel is but partially ignited, and-the fuel consequently kains more slowly and more economically. A sufficient evldeneekif the effect of the gases in heating the oven, is found in the fact that the oven will be ready fur baking, even before the fire is thoroughly kindled, and ;nuelleooneethan in any other stove. As Gae-burning Stoves are the order of the day, the Gas-burning Cooking Stove will not-only be' the leading stove of the present season, but it will undoubtedly sueereede all others. - Purchasers will, therefore, consult their owe interest, by seeing and examining it before glying - any orders elsewhere.
