toes may be baked by placing them on
the ledge, steak may be broiled, using
a wire broiler and protecting the
hands with gloves. A pudding may
be baked if it is turned occasionally.
Glass Jars, the wide-mouthed kind,

s42 for lighting red lanterns, while
the Maine Granite G Paving company
was forced to lose a claim of $18,140

failed to give technical notice of their
intention to demand payment from
the city after the Murray Paving COM
pany had failed to finish a $4,000
street paving contract, which after

ing to the ruling of the court the COM
pany failed to file its lien in time to
be legally ccllectible, while the lamp
lighter put in his claim just in time.
