Celebrated 18th Anniversary ol
Their Marriage.

Saturday was most memorable day
for Mr.. and Mrs. George Heintz, Of
Coventry. Twenty-Five years ago they
were married, yet owing to recent
death of near relatives the plan to
have an elaborate celebration was
abandoned. In place of that the day
was observed in quiet but neverthe-
less very pleasant manner. Surrounded
by three sons and one daughter, and
the nearest relatives and some of the
most intimate friends, days gone by
were recalled. Rev. Edw. G. Stuebi,
made a few remarks appropriate to
the occasion.

who knows the best remedies for

things in the world Is to be awaken
ed in the middle Of the night by a
whoop from one of the children. The
Group remedies are almost as sure to
belost, in case of Group, as a revolver is
sure to be lost in case of burglars. There
used to be an old-fashoned remedy
for Group, known as hive syrup and
tolu, but some modern mothers say
that Chamberlains Cough Remedy is
better. and does not cost so much.

CAN USE EITHER
COAL OR GAS
Convertible Furnace introduced
by Nav & Fiebeaer.

May and Fiebeger are exhibiting
a new feature in connection with their
furnaces. They have convertible
furnace which can be used for either
coal or natural gas, and can be changed
from one to the other in a moments
time and without expense. An applica-
ton for a patent was recently filed
by Mr.. Frank Fiebeger on device
for furnaces which secures the above
results
Through the fall and early winter
months It is desirable to be able to
use natural gas for fuel while in the
colder part Of the winter coal is more
economical. BY this invention either
fuel may be used. The natural gas
burner manufactured by May and
Fiebeger secures perfectly blue
flame, indicating that the proper pro-
portion of air is utilized to produce
an lHteHSe nedt' IHiS udiHe 10 tnroWh
directly against the bottom Of the fire
pot Of the furnace, and the heat thus
produced travels the entire length Of
the furnace, securing the largest pos
sible area of heat radiating surface.
A great demand is predicted for fur
| naces with this jmproyement
Two other patents were granted
Mr.. Fiebeger during the year, both
of them covering valuable improve
ments in furnaces. May and Fie-
beger report an increase Of 80 per
cent in their trade for 1902, and state
that their prospects for tile coming
year are equally bright.
