V Means Perfect Heating “idiom Gas, Dust or Smoke. The “Hecla” Furnace is the only Furnace with Fused Joints. These Joints are made by fusing the steel and cast iron parts together at white heat making an indestructible joint. Fused Joints are permanently airtight. Even after 20 years’ use they will not work loose or leak. They insure absolute freedom from dust, smoke. and gas. The Steelâ€"Ribbed Fire l’ot used on the “Hecla” Furnace has three times as much radiating surface as any other style oi lire pot. It Will save fuel for l The Fenelcn Falls Gazette. Friday, Oct. 11th, 1908. A Successful Fair. The annual fall fair of the Fcnelon Agricultural Society, held at the Falls on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, )ct. 6 and 7, was well up to its usual standard of excellence. The weaâ€" ther was perfect, and the attendance was consequently one of the largest on record. The showing of horses and cattle was first-class, many fine animals being on the ground, but sheep and hogs, especially the latter, appear to bore- ceiving less attention from the farmers than they did ten years ago or so. Poul- try were fairly well represented. In the indoor department, the exhibit of grain, roots and vegetables, etc., was good, the roots especially being better than might be expected in such a dry season. Fruit, however, was a small class. In domestic manufactures and fancy work, the, exhibits while about up to the average in numbers, were of extra good quality. Only one event in the way of a horse race was on the pro- gramme. This was a green race in which Mr. John Aldous' mare “Fanny ” took first money, winning three straight‘ Maggie Twomey, Frances McIntosh, Irene Minthorn, Fred Jell'rey; leaders of glue club, Lillian Connell, Rachael Me Farlan d, Vivian Kerr, Florence Cham- bers, Olive McGee, Norma Mason ; pro- gramme committee, Zetta McFarland, Arthur Robson.

To the Editor of the Fenclon Falls Gazette: S m,â€" ,4 There has been published in the public press of the town a letter by Col. Sam Hughes, addressed to me. The let- ter is so grossly insulting and indecent in its tone that it will receive no reply from me. The public, however, deserve an explanation. Four years ago Col. Hughes made a deliberate attcm pt to ruin my professional character, and he put into every home in this constituency circulars for that purpose, entirely false, one serious charge being supported by an alleged letter, which was afterwards shown to have been a fabrication. The people of Fenelon Falls and the rest of the county will remember that I placed ' $100 in the hands of the chairman of the‘ Fenelon Falls meeting, Mr. Thos. Rob'- son, and publicly challenged Col. Hughes to establish the truth of 'any of these aaalveascnv SERVIGES liltTDlllA CHURCH ,POWLES’ CORNER SUNDAY AND more“ CDT. 1'! AND 12 SUNDAY, 19.30 and 7, Rev. R. H.

We were on the spot two minutes after the stabbing took place, but heard not a word about a man running away and throwing some- thing in the canal, nor did we know such , a thing had happened until the fact was brought out at the trial.

A SUCCESS.â€"Tl1e annual harvest home of St. James’ church, held last Thursday evening, was a highly satisfactory event. The supper, one of the best served in the village for a long time, was largely 3 attended, and the service in the church was very enjoyable, the sermon by the Rev. C. H. Marsh, of Lindsay,boing very appropriate.

I believe the general character of the District of Vic- toria and Haliburton, with comparative~ ly few exceptions, has been good. In no case have I interested myself in Col. Hughes’s personal character or per- sonal affairs, neither have I commented on him in his business relations. He may serve his employers well, for all I know. I have stated to the electors that if they take that address and" read it, and consideritan honest, fair, truthful stateâ€" ment, by all means vote for Col. Hughes ,~ but, on the other hand, if‘ they believe it false and scandalous, it is their privilege and duty to do otherwise. ’ Yours truly, R. J.
