coal and wood heater on the market
It is a high class, well built stove
which will last, giving economical
service as long as It is in use.
We will be glad to demonstrate these
features and the many others which
are embodied in this stove and urge
you to visit our store when next in
the vicinity, as actual demonstration
will tell you more in ten minutes
than we could tell you In book. No
obligation to buy.
In addition to the "air blast" and
patented diaphragm" fuel saving
the "Air Blast" UNIVERSAL is a
wonderful floor warmer The tenn
perature in your home will be uni
form from floor to ceiling when you
own an "Air Blast heater.
This is brought about by the con-
struction OF the heating chamber
which defects the heat downwards
toward the floor as we'll as upward.

No danger OF the children catching
cold from playing on the floor. In
most heating stoves the fire is a con-
siderable distance from the floor and
there Is no means for throwing the
heat downward.
In the Universal Air blast this feat-
urc has been developed and the floor
Is as warm as any other part Of the
room.
Ask us to show you this feature
in construction-you will see how
this Is made possible In the Universal

500 of the smoke and gases from
soft coal are burned and turned into

as the Air Blast" It will burn the
cheapest grades of fuel with absolute
cleanliness, giving you moro heat at
less expense than any other store
made 1t pays for 4tself by It's econ

The Air Blast" Universal is more
than an ordinary smoke consuming
heater, however. II IS heat pro-

Like the ouija board, the planchette
was used by two classes of persons.
1t was used by the believers in spirit
nalism, who asked questions of spir-

received answers from the intelli-
gences on the spirit plane. and by
people who regarded the mechanism
as a game. and amused themselves by
pushing It to write messages for the
benefit of others present.

DISCOVERY or HOLY CROSS
Story Goes That the Empress Helena
Was Responsible for Its Recov-
cry From the Jews.

Through the zeal of the Empress
Helena. mother of Constantine the
Great. was discovered the cross on
which the Savior was crucified, and
the date Is given as May 3. The
story usually told is to the effect that
the empress went to Jerusalem and
there compelled the Jews to bring the
cross from its concealment and give II
to her. together with other crosses in
their possession. Its identity was es-
tablished by miracle: The body Of
tiead man was placed on each of the
crosses and when 1t touched the true
one the dead man Immediately came
to life. Many pilgrims travelling to
Jerusalem received pieces of the true
cross. and the question was raised as
TO the possibility of supplying thou
sands with those fragments without
entirely carrying away the cross. IT
was therefore said that the true cross
had the power of reproducing ITSELF
On the capture of Jerusalem In GA,
the cross we are told. was carried into
Persia. where II remained until re-
stored by Heraclius, which event Is
commemorated In September and Is
usually called Holyrood day. The four
