In case metal should be spilled into the burner, itcan be easily taken apart for its removal. Each part of the burner is lettered, and in case of accident it GENERATION AND APPLICATION OF HEAT. 61 can be supplied at a small expense by specifying the letter on thepiece desired. The burner in its present shape is believed to be the most effi-cient and economical yet devised for furnace purposes. The following instructions in the use of this furnace should beobserved: A chimney or stove-pipe, eight or ten feet high, may be usedas a fi
