The Newtown Savings bank are fur nishing, free. to depositors opening an account of S1 or more with beautiful silver-nickel bank. The bank people thus make it easy for you to save and hard not to. If you will start a sav- ings account with S1, deposited to your credit, they give you one Self-Register- ing steel safe, retaining the key. You slip in the dimes and nickels, even larger coins and bills as you can spare them. Bring the little saving machine to the bank each month and they will for the contents. Do this every month and your financial condition will never be source of worry to you. Your easy spending habit is checkmated by the fact that the bank holds the key. The old habit loses strength and the secret in nutshell. Can anyone afford to miss this opportunity?
 The advantages of these self-regis- tering Safes to young people may be briefly summarized as follows:
 l. It's novelty. Attracts and holds your attention to the idea of saving.
 2. Sanitary, strong and durable. Per forations make perfect ventilation. Does not rust or corrode coins. Made of Bessemer steel and chilled iron.
 3. It's suggestiveness. Silently and constantly invites you to watch the money COlumnS grow. Anu they QO grow.
 4. It's coin arrangement. It encour- ages frequent deposits.
 5. It's immediate response to the de- sire to know how much you have saved. You can see the money and it is also recorded for you on the outside surface of the safe.
 6. It's prevention of mistakes as to how much has. been handed the bank teller. Money can be counted before the safe is opened.
 '. It's separation and stacking of coins and delivery to bank teller with out distur rbing the money or dumping the safe. Another time-saver to you and the bank. All of which keeps you interested in the main proposition of saving.

After careful consideration of the benefits sure to accrue to community by increasing the number of savings bank depositors, the directors of the Newtown Savings bank have ordered aGsupply of Individual steel savings banks, for distribution to those who wish to accumulate small savings, with the ultimate object of deposit1ng the same in the savings bank. This safe indicates at all times just how much is deposited in it, so that the de- positor may, at any time, know wheth- CT he is ready to take it to the savings bank for deposit on his bank book. Applicants for one of these safes (which cost the bank S1 each), will be required to open a regular account with the bank by depositing S1 and re- ceiving a regular bank book therefor, which dollar can be withdrawn any time on return of the safe. Other de- posits on the book may be made, and amounts withdrawn, the same as on any savings bank book. The great convenience of these small safes to small savers, and the good sure to fol- low the starting of saving accounts, is the primary object of the bank direct ors. The only key-a master key-to
 these safes is retained by the Savings
 bank so that safes may be opened only when presented at the bank. MT Net tleton, the affable treasurer, will be
 glad to show these safes to any inter ested parties.

Much interest was lately being shown

Much interest was lately being shown in the alleged discovery of chemical compound by John Elmore, cobbler of Altoona, Pa, which, mixed with durable and effective heat agent than the original coal itself. Fillmore gave several exhibitions which attracted attention and were heralded as re- markedly successful and convincing. Little has been heard of them lately, but the Fillmore prescription, or what passes for that, has been published as follows Common salt, one pound; Oxalic acid, two ounces; water, one gallon. Mix and moisten mixture parts ashes and better fuel than pure coal is obtained. The whole thing bears close resem blance to the water-and-ashes s'discovery" which was brought out during the fuel fam inc of bare three s1ts years or so ago. discov | known to many householders here abouts from practical experiment. Prof Bellew of the Columbia universi- ty department of chemistry ridiculed the claims of the Altoona cobbler, Whereupon James w. Geyer, a New York tobacconist. announced his dis | covery of powder, whose composition is kept secret, which would make coal ashes mixed with a third part of coal burn longer and give
 
 pure coal. He publicly invited Prof Below to attend a test of his claim in l the boiler room of the Park Avenue l hotel, last Sunday afternoon. The professor did not go but a lot of news paper reporters went along with an expert mechanical engineer of recog- nized standing in that profession. The New York Times prints this account of the test: The first step in the test was the mixing of coal and ashes. A pile consisting of two-thirds ashes and one-third coal was mixed thor oughly, water was poured upon this and then the powder, to the prOpor- tion of a tablespoonful of powder to one gallon of water was thrown on, and stirred thoroughly. Two of the three boilers were then shut down, and several shovelfuls of the mix ture were thrown into the furnace of the third boiler. The steam pressure at that time was 75 pounds. The mix ture was thrown in at o'clock. Seven minutes later the furnace door was opened. The fuel was burning briskly, ; a white flame appearing over the coals This flame is much lighter in colol than the flame from the usual anthra cite coal. In half an hour the steam 5 pressure stood the same-75 pounds the one boiler doing the work that the 3 three had done before. The hotel en- 5 gineer said that this would not have l been possible with pure anthracite
