The name of Lafayette has been the bone of contention of two townships in the Haute-Lolre department. ' The town of Le Puy-en-Velay, which has played a' certain role in French history, as the birthplace of several well-known men, including a pope, has been ad vocating changing its name to that of Le Puy-Lafayette, in honor of the general whose old home is not far off. ,,Bufc the,, town of. Bribude has taken exception. During a recent i session the municipal council decreed that, in its much as the Chateau of Chavaniac, "Lafayette's birthplace, was in the parish of Brioude, and that several of his family resided in the town, where the general was wont to come every year for the local fete, the name of Lafayette belonged by right to Brioude aha suuuiu by Le-Puy. ., -s ,..

This black smoke and gas in the ordinary stove escapes unconsumed through the smoke pipe and chimney. Tests have proven the volatile in coal when burned before escaping through chimney contains the same percentage of heat units as the carbon in coal. The Air Blast Universal With its new and novel construc tion supplies an abundance of supcrhoxtod air directly over the ' fuel chamber, thereby burning and eonsuming all the smoke and gases and assuring one hundred percent heating efficiency This overdraft of heated air also baffles the heat (preventing its usual free escape through smoke pipe) and deflects the heat to the floor.
