BACKGROUND OF INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a torch. [0003] 2. Related Prior Art [0004] As disclosed in Taiwanese Patent Publication No. 524304, a refilling device is provided for a torch. The refilling device includes a tube 2, a rod 3, a spring 4, a washer 5, a ring 6 and a C-clip 7. The spring 4, the washer 5, the ring 6 and the C-clip 7 are installed on the rod 3. The rod is put in the tube 2. With this conventional device, the torch can be refilled with fuel. However, there is not control over the amount of the fuel refilled in the torch. If the torch is excessively refilled, the fuel will be spread in the liquid state instead of the gaseous state. The gas goes further in the liquid state than in the gaseous state. The fuel is more dangerous in the liquid state than in the gaseous state. Therefore, this conventional refilling device is dangerous and impractical. [0005] The present invention is therefore intended to obviate or at least alleviate the problems encountered in prior art. SUMMARY OF INVENTION [0006] According to the present invention, there is provided a torch. The torch includes a reservoir, a head, a base and a refilling device. The head is attached to an end of the reservoir. An igniter is installed on a side of the head. A nozzle is installed on an opposite side of the head. An eccentric aperture is in communication with the nozzle. The base is attached to an opposite end of the reservoir. The refilling device is installed on the base. The reservoir can be refilled with fuel through the refilling device. [0007] The primary advantage of the torch of the present invention is to provide safety for a user by ensuring the fuel leaves the reservoir only in the gaseous state. [0008] Other advantages and novel features of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description referring to the attached drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS [0009] The present invention will be described via detailed illustration of the preferred embodiment referring to the drawings. [0010] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a torch according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention. [0011] FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the torch shown in FIG. 1. [0012] FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the torch shown in FIG. 1. [0013] FIG. 4 is a partial view of the torch shown in FIG. 3. [0014] FIG. 5 is similar to FIG. 3 but shows the torch inverted. [0015] FIG. 6 is a partial view of the torch shown in FIG. 5. [0016] FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of the torch shown in FIG. 1 in a save working position. [0017] FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the torch shown in FIG. 1 in another save working position. [0018] FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view of the torch shown in FIG. 1 in still another save working position. [0019] FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view of the torch shown in FIG. 1 in a dangerous working position. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENT [0020] Referring to FIGS. 1 through 4, there is shown a torch including a reservoir 20 in the form of a cylinder, a head 10 attached an end of the reservoir 20, a base 30 attached to an opposite end of the reservoir 20 and a refilling device 40 inserted in the reservoir 20 through the base 30.
