lU)WATT'S PATENT ANUCAPNIC SAFETY KEROSINE LAMP. UIE diffbroncß between the Anncapinc Safely Kerosine Lamp, ami the ordinary lamp is, that instead of only bavin" one brass dome or cone above the flame, Mr Rowatt, the Patentee of the now burner, uses two dome?, the one inside the other. The inner dome creates the usual draught of air rushing up to the flame common to all kerosine Limps ; but, in addition to that, when the outside dome gets hot, it draws up a powerful current of air through the space between the names, which mootin ' Iho inner current at the flame disposes of all smoke or smell, for whatever of these may escape the flrst dome is caught and burned clean by the second one. The flame 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 tho effect of making the flame perfectly steady, preventing down draught ami keeping it clear from insects. The whole invention consists in the douiflo dome, ono inside the other, by which arrangement the combustion prodneen is much more perfect'than that can he gat from a chimney lamp. Il is perfectly simple and without any liability to get out of order, they can be had complete from Os. each and upwards.
