Wood Naptha, or Pyroxylic Spirit.
This is often called wood spirit, and is procured from the tar resulting from the distillation of wood for wood vinegar or pyroligneous acid. It is colorless, without the disagreeable odour of coal-tar naptha, and very inflammable, burning without smoke, very much in the manner of spirits of wine. It is used in varnish-making, and also for burning in lamps where heat and not light is required.
