THE UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER.
30 to 50 per Cent. Saved .
To be had at the Patentees. 60, St. Martin's-lane, Charing-cross.
The Patentees beg to call public attention to the
following facts
The advantages resulting from the invention are yarious and
striking. Independently of a saving of 30 to 50 per cent the com-
bustion is perfect, and the brilliancy produced superior to any
light
hitherto discovered. It emits neither smell nor smoke, anil rtrn burns
steadily for any period ; and such is its purity, that it neither affects'
or soils the most delicate colour or the finest fabric. Objections have
Made to the introduction of gas in dwellinr-houses, to the expense of
fittings, to its destruction of furniture, draperies, gold moulding, k, .
these are entirely obviated by the " PATENT UNIVERSAL GAS''
Butt:mt." As the cost of laying on gas is muck lower than is com-
monly supposed, it is adapted for private dwellings, as well as for
club-houses, hotels, manufactories, and public buildings. Ono of the
small burners is amply sufficient to light a good-sized room, at a sum
immeasurably lower than spirit, oil, or candle, with the avoidance of
waste or trouble.
The nitrite of the " Burner," its brilliancy and economy surpassing
every other known light, are shown by the annexed
,authentic
opinions of the qualities of the UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER.
Extract from the Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers,.
Tuesday, 26th May, 1546, Sir JOHN RENNIE, President, in the
r.
" A. gas burner of a novel and ingenious construction was exhibited.
The principal novelty was the introduction of a stream of Air to the
centre of the flame by a hollow button in the midile of the burner.
The air passing up through the hollow stem of the button, was
hewed, and passed out by two series of fire-holes around the periphery,
and impinging with force on the flame of the gas curved it outwards
In the shape of a tulip, while the oxygen of the air, mingling with
the carburetted hydrogen gas, produced a very perfect combustion,
The flame was quite white down the top of the burner, was very steady,
as was amply demonstrated by the excellent light of the Institution,
where these burners have been used. In comparing the consumption
of these burners with that of the concentric ring burners, arid trying
the power of the two lights by the photometer, the new burner gave a
better light, with a saving of rather more than one-third."

and Co,'s Universa :Gas Burner with one of the best shawdowless
turners, it gave a more pure and brilliant light, with a saving of 20
to 25 per cent." GEORGE CRISP, Engineer,

CERTIFICATE.
" In a series of experiments made upon Clark, Mc Niell, and Co.'s
Patent Universal Gas Burner, its superiority was satisfactorily esta-
blished in economy arid the quality of the light. Tested against
argand burn,-rs, Nos. 4 (12 holes), and 6 (15 holes), it afforded a
saving of at least 25 per cent., and against three fish-tail burners,
Nn, 4, 49 per cent. The colour and brilliancy of the flame is supe-
rior to any other burner."
T. W. KEATES, Consulting Chemist,
J. D. PALMER, Mechanical Inspector.
The UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER is used nightly at the Poly-
technic Institution, and may be had and seen from 11 till 4, at the
Zilitelittela 60, St. Martial-lane, Charles-crops; and of all GiUl Fitton.
