ROW ALT’S PXTENT ANUCAPNIC SAFETY KEROSENE LAMP. THE difference between the Anucapnio Safety Kerosene Lamp and the ordinary lamp is, that instead of only having one brass dome or cone above the flame, Mr Row att, the Patenteee of the new burner, uses two domes, the one inside tho other. Tho inner dome creates the usual draught of air rushing up to the flame, common to all kerosene lamps ; but, in addition to that, when tho outside dome gets hot, it devours up apowerful current of air through the space between the domes, which meeting the inner current at the flame disposes of all smoko or smell, for whatever of these may ©scape the first dome is caught and burned clean by the second one. The flatno is the same shape as the ordinary lamp gives, but much more brilliant, white, and steady. A handsome shaped globe, which never breaks with the heat, shelters the flame from any sudden draught, while a simple piece of wire gauze, resting on the top of the globe, has the effect of making tho flame perfectly steady, preventing down draught and keeping it clean from insects. The whole invention consists in tho double dome, ono inside the other, by which arrangement the combustion produced is much more perfect than can ho got from a chimney lamp. It is perfectly simple and without any liability to get out ot order. They can he had complete from 5s each and up wards.
