Small tanks similar to this were used years ago on kerosene vaporizers as a replacement when the original glass tank broke. They were outlawed around the 1950's as being quack medical appliances. Although I would expect they could be used for a number of things. I had a vapo cresolene vaporizer from the 1880's that had a spare tank similar to this one.

Did Indiana Glass make vaporizers? The cup around the wick is not sealed against leakage.
