The base l supports a vessel 2 provided with a removable top 3. The vessel 2 contains another removable vessel 4 containing some inflammable liquid, such, for instance,

vas' alcohol, said vessel being held in place by a diaphragm 5 near its upper end, and being seatedin a recess or depression in the base l.

This arinnge-inent securely holds the vessel 4f 4and prevents it from slipping from its proper position and adjustment on the base.

Tufo wires 6 extend through a hole in the base andnieconnected respectively to two posts?. @ne o the wires leads to a tube 8 extending through `the top and into the in'- iiammable liquid in the vessel 1l.
