PISTON VALVE FOR ENGINES. a valve having two heads and a con-necting stem, the heads being sepa-rable from the body portion, with splitrings supported by each of the heads,and solid rings arranged between eachpair of split rings. There are alsodisks carried by one of the heads ofeach pair for supporting the solid ring,and means for drawing the outerheads toward the inner heads to clampthe several rings to prevent lateralmovement. FUEL CONSUMER. An improvement in the art of con-suming fuel in furnaces has been pat-ented by Mr. E. H. Wade and Mr. Nicholson, Chicago, 111. No. 851,-330. The improvement consists inburning fuel in the lower part of afurnace while maintaining a partialsupply of air through the bottom ofthe furnace, constricting the evolvedgaseous body at a point between theburning fuel and the furnace outlet,and projecting into the constrictedportion of the gaseous body andtoward the burning fuel a number ofconverging streams of hot air, therebyestablishing a barrier th
