fucceeding is warmed in its turn, rifes and fpreads, till by 
the continual circulation the whole is warmed. 
If you fhould have occafion to make your firft fire at 
hours not fo convenient as thofe above mentioned, and 
when the chimney does not draw, do not begin it in the 
vafe, but in one or more of the paflages of the lower plate, 
firft covering the mouth of the vafe. After the chimney 
has drawn a while with the fire thus low, and begins to 
be a little warm, you may clofe thofe paffages and kindle 
another fire in the box C, leaving its fliding fhutter a little 
open; and when you find after fome time that the chim- 
ney being warmed draws forcibly, you may fhut that paf-

directed. The chimney well warmed by the firft day’s 
fire will continue to draw conftantly all winter, if fires are 
made daily.

will gather by degrees, and perhaps once in a week or ten 
days require being removed, figure 15. 
And a fork with its prongs wide enough to flip on the 
neck of the vafe cover, in order to raife and open it when 
hot, to put in frefh coals, figure 16. 
In the management of this ftove there are certain pre- 
cautions to be obferved, at firft with attention, till they 
become habitual. To avoid the inconvenience of {moke, 
fee that the grate H be clear before you begin to light a 
frefh fire. If you find it clogged with cinders and afhes, 
turn it up with your tongs and let them fall upon the grate 
below; the afhes will go through it, and the cinders may
