A Jack Avis puzzle

JACK AVIS WAS AN AVID NOTE TAKER and as mentioned earlier he left masses of notebooks filled with his magic thinkings, ideas both original and observed also noted odd sayings, puzzles and literary ephemera both in and out of magic.

He is one item I found recently.

A man looked into his match box and found just one match left. He wanted to light his cigar, a gas burner, his gas stove and a garden bonfire.

Which did he light first?

(Answer tomorrow)
