The “Standard” Wickless Blue Flame. For Coal Oil and Gasoline.
Reading edition
It is with a feeling of great assurance and satisfaction that we offer our “Wickless” Blue Flame Oil Stove to the trade, for this, its fourth season.
No. 1.
While there have been a number of other “Wickless” Stoves put on the market, the universal satisfaction with which our “Standard” has been sold by the trade, and used by consumers, is the most positive evidence that it is properly constructed to meet the popular demand for a good, practical, Oil Stove. The simplicity of our “Standard” Wickless, is a feature that recommends it for use in the kitchen, where mechanical ingenuity is usually lacking.
It cannot be styled an Evaporator or Generator, as it burns the oil as simply and completely as a handfull of wood shavings would be burned, if ignited in the fire pot of an ordinary cook stove. To successfully accomplish this result, there are two important and vital features of the stove, and in which ours differs from other styles of “Wickless,” namely: the burner cup that receives and distributes the oil to the flame, and the combustion chamber or chimney where the gases are mixed with air in proper proportion, to produce a blue flame. (See cut No. 1.)
No. 2.
The burner cup of the “Standard” Wickless, as shown in cut No. 2, is made with an enlarged entrance, the channel of the cup being divided so that the oil enters on both sides of the cup, where it is conducted into two channels, upper and lower, entirely around the cup. In this manner the oil is distributed evenly to all parts of the burner, giving a more even and perfect flame than can be secured where there is only a single small entrance to the cup. Further, our cup is less sensitive to being out of level, on account of the manner in which the oil is distributed.
The enlarged opening at the entrance of the cup, provides for the expansion of gas, which always takes place where the oil enters a heated cup, thereby overcoming the tendency toward a pulsating flame which is a common and objectionable feature of all other “Wickless” burner cups, constructed without an enlarged opening at the entrance. By referring to Cut No. 3, it will be seen that the channel cup is constructed with a ledge, which projects from the outer rim toward the center of the cup, on this ledge the outside perforate of the chimney rests. This ledge prevents, to a great degree, the oil from passing by capillary attraction, over the surfaces of the burner, to that part which is outside of the chimney. For that reason the “Standard” Wickless can be operated with less smoke and odor than any other “Wickless” Blue Flame Oil Stove.
No. 3.
The burner cup is made of sheet metal, (brass) which is quickly heated, so that in starting the stove, it can be put in operating in much less time than is possible, where a heavy cast cup is used.
That the burner cup is durable, is proven by the fact that in three years experience with the sheet brass cup, we have never known of one burning out.
The chimney, or combustion chamber of the “Standard” Wickless is a very important feature, and one that is distinctly our own. To secure the greatest efficiency from the burner, it is necessary that the flame be applied as near to the center of the cooking vessel as possible.
It will be seen from the cut of our chimney, that it is constructed with a small tube in the center, which extends from below the burner to the top; through this center tube, a current of fresh, warm air is constantly furnished to the flames, which produces at the center of the burner, a most powerful fire, applying it at a point where the greatest possible utilization of the heat is secured.
Through the large openings at the top of the inside perforate, a large proportion of the flame is drawn toward the center of the burner, so that the heat is applied evenly over the bottom of the cooking vessel, thereby securing the greatest amount of benefit from the fuel consumed.
RIGHT CONSTRUCTION. No. 4.
WRONG CONSTRUCTION. No. 5.
A comparative glance at the two cuts, will show how the heat from our burner spreads evenly over the bottom of the article heated. If the top of the perforate were closed, much of the heat would be lost by being applied too far from the center of the article to be heated.

Reasons Why Preferred.
It has no wick
and is easily kept clean.
It has no joints to leak
or packing nuts. No pressure of oil below the tank. It cannot leak.
It does not generate or evaporate.
The oil simply drops into an open brass pipe through which it is conducted to an open burner ring where it burns, producing a powerful blue flame. Could anything be simpler?
It has a removable tank
which can be carried to an outer room for filling.
It is absolutely safe.
It lights quickly.
Simply turn on the oil and apply the match.
It cooks instantly.
There is no smoke—no delay. As soon as lighted a cooking vessel can be placed over the burner.
It has no stops
or automatic regulators to govern the flow of oil. The flame is entirely under the control of the user.
It makes no difference
what quality of oil is used, whether coal oil or gasoline, whether it is good or bad, heavy or light, thick or thin, hot or cold, the stove operates equally well, producing an intensely hot, smokeless blue flame. Can as much be said TRUTHFULLY of any other stove?
It has a glass sight feed
which shows at a glance the flow of oil and enables the user to regulate the valve quickly and accurately.
For economy of fuel
as compared with the coal and wood stove, it is beyond comparison. Will save what it cost in one season over coal or wood at the average price. It is a friend and helper to the thrifty housekeeper who tries to save what others waste.
Especially.
It is a boon to the country home and suburban residence, where fuel gas cannot be obtained.
Lastly.
It is safe, clean, quick, reliable and convenient, and no home can afford to forego the comfort that this wonderful stove brings.
The dealer
who recognizes the merits of the “Standard” Wickless and places it on his sales floor will find it a ready and popular seller.
