This invention has for its object the dispepsing with the" ordinary fwater-back, which are placed in, stoves and ranges and communicate by meansof pipes with the heater or water-receptacle in order to heat the Water therein. These water-backs absorb a great amount of heat and greatly deteriorate, the
