If an excess of air is admittedto the furnace, a certain proportionof free and unused oxygen will pass upthe chimney, while if the air supply isdeficient the chimney will very likelydischarge more or less of the gas thatis known to the chemist as carbonmonoxide, and which burns with a paleblue lambent flame in household stoveswhen fresh coal has been recently thrownin. Moreover, coal is never pure addition to a certain variable propor-tion of entirely incombustible m
