New ARTIcLEs.-A couple of new and
very useful articles for the household
have recently been invented and patent
ed, and are now being offered in market.
One is an improved mop or broom hold

last must be very useful TO every house

arms which can be attached TO table,
or mantle shelf over the stove if sudden
or quick drying is desired. A lady in
this village who has used one of these ar
ticles speaks very highly Of it. The first
is retailed for twenty-five cents, the other
for one dollar, which is remarkably
cheap considering the usual prices at
tached to all patented articles. Orion
