Housewives who have burned their
fingers in handling hot fruit Jars and
have sometimes dropped and broken
the Jars as q consequence. will appreci-
ate the usefulness of the fruit jar hold
er invented by a New Jersey man. This
holder consists of q flexible band Of
metal to surround the jar. with q
handle attached to one end Of the band
and. having projecting pins to engage
hooks on the opposite end and so tight
EN- It about the jar that the latter may
be easily lifted from n place to an
other with perfect safety to the Jar and
30 the hands Of the person carrying it.
There Is a row of hooks and slots so
arranged that the band can be adjusted
20 any size jar. 1t Is a simple matter
both to adjust and detach the holder
and the advantages OF such a devico
for use during preserving time will be
readily apparent to all women. The
holder can be put to other uses when
hot receptacles have to be moved
about.

NEW JERSEY MAN GETS
THANKS OF ALL N

A man in New Jersey has earned the
gratitude OF all women who do en-
broidery by designing an embroidery
stiletto, which will punch any size holes
in a fabric. By any size, of course, Is
meant any OF the sizes used in that
sort of work.. The device consists of
and equipped with a handle. Along this
rod runs a gauge device held in posi-
ton by q screw. The nearer this gauge
is to the point of the stiletto, the
smaller the hole made, and, conversely.

TOWN FINANCES

We desire to call special at
tention to the Financial State
meat of the town published in
this issue. It is a splendid
showing of fiscal affairs and
reflects great credit upon the
prudence, economy and fnan-
cial capacity of the old admins
tration. Notwithstanding the
fact that no taxes have been
collected for the ensuing year,
the statement shows a large
cash balance on hand immed-
lately available for general ex-
penses and Improvement pur-
poses, after setting apart the
sinking fund for the payment
of bonded Indebtedness.
When We consider the i'm
provements made and the low
rate of taxation prevailing for
the last several years, the
towns present financial con-
dition is cause for great con-
graduation.
We doubtif there is any town
in the state that can make a
better showing under all the
circumstances.
