The old high, iron pot was only efficient when it was set down in a bed of embers or in the hole of a coal stove. Our modern fuels are distributed in a flat, broad, and shallow manner, as in the burners of the gas stove, oil, gasoline, or elec- tric stove. On such broad burners, the tall, high coffee-pot or kettle are very inefficient.

I know several devices which were excellent in construction, but which were so uncomfortable to the hand of the worker that the manufacturers ceased mak- ing them, or changed the construction to conform better with comfort.
