lent than the fresh milk for most
purposes, as it keeps several days in
hot weather after it is opened and
indefinitely if unopened, so that you
always have supply of milk or
cream. Even if one uses fresh milk
for most purposes it will be found
convenient to have can or two for
emergencies.
Uses of Kerosene.
Having tested the efficacy of
rag dipped in kerosene in cleaning
sink, bathtub and lavatory, l tried
it on zinc and woodwork and was
delighted with the result. SCOT from
kettles, grease and even dirty water
specks, which are the hardest of all
to remove, disappeared as if by ma
gic. l used it in all my houseclean-
ing this spring and found it a great
saving of time, strength and also
paint, as the latter was often re-
moved by the old securing process.
Don't let anyone fool you by attract
i've representations of powders or
securing soaps. Try kerosene. 1t is
equally effective in cleaning soiled
spots on furniture and a little in the
water used for washing windows is
help. I also put two tablespoon
fuls in the boiler when scalding the
clothes after soaking them over
night in cold water.
Saving Fuel.
If one has a flat-topped heating
stove a good deal of fuel may be
saved by cooking lunch or supper on
it. heat my tea water in the lower
part of the double boiler, and if
want hot dish, cook it in the upper
part.
Arrange to bake bread, cakes, pies,
beans or meat or to make soup or
stew when you iron.
When your fire gets we'll agoing
close all drafts and your fire will
last much longer.
The mornings are usually cool
here, even during the hottest wealth
er, SO l have found it a saving of
both the fuel and myself to do my
cooking for the day during the heat
ed term, on my wood range early in
the morning. The vegetables for
dinner may be re-heated on the oil
or gas stove in few moments. /
dispensed with roasts and stews and
had fried meat instead, as it could
be cooked while the vegetables were
heating. Dessert was served cold.
soups and hot drinks were dispensed
with. A few slices of roast were oc-
casionally bought at the delicatessen
store, when change was desired.
Put a pan over your flatrons
when heating them on an oil stove
or gas stove and they will heat more
readily and thoroughly.
To keep food hot on an oil stove,
while waiting or a meal, turn the
burner as low as possible and set
over it pan of hot water containing
the dishes of food, or set the food in
the oven over a burner turned low.
If you have work to do which re-
quires fire, let other work go and
attend to that, so that it may not be
necessary to keep fire in the range
in the afternoon. Some women let
the washing, ironing, canning and
baking occupy the entire day, thus
exhausting themselves and wasting
fuel.

POOR WOMAN
RECEIVES AID
City Marshal Plays Part of
Good Samaritan.

While seated IN police court this
morning, hungry and i'll, awaiting
aims from the poor authorities, Mrs.
John Oberc was kindly aided by City
Marshal William w. Walters. He
gave her money to procure food for
herself and baby, and aided In pro-
yiding work for her to do as soon as
she desired. The woman was the
victim OF an alleged worthless hus-
band. She claimed he had deserted
her and their baby, leaving them
penniless.
Yesterday the woman came with
the baby on her arm to police head
quarters asking for aid. She said
they had no home, little clothing
and nothing to eat. Through the
kindliness of a friend they were
given shelter for the night. The wo-
wan appeared again at police head
quarters at o'clock this morning.
She appeared weak from hunger and
Illness. After she had been aided by
the city marshal, the police directed
her to the home OF the assistant
to the overseer of the poor.
According to police records, Oberc
was arrested on February 10 last,
for stealing s58 from boarder in
his fathers house and robbing his
father, Andrew Oberc, of gold
watch and a pear OF shoes. AS most
of the loot was returned and the
father asked for leniency, the pris-
oner, an overgrown youth of twenty
two years, was released.

NEW DIRECTORY
IS COMPLETED
Much Better Than Last Year
Credit to City.

W. J.. Richmond's 1913 directory
OF Perth Amboy and vicinity has
been published and copies are being
distributed 1t contains numerous
changes. additions and erasures.
bringing it up to date and making 1t
more complete than any other direc-
tory in the history of the city. New
names added number 2,705. OLD
names erased, caused by deaths and
people leaving the city we're 2,370.
The number OF changes in addresses
of residents were 2.362.
These changes are for this city
only and do not include the same
proportionate changes in other
places included in the book, not
changes in the business, street, ap
pendix and other sections. Thus,
the publisher claims. more than fifty
per cent of the latest book is en-
tirely different from that OF 1912.
Especial pains have been taken
In making the directory as complete
and as correct as possible. Much
time was spent by competent corps
of canvassers to that end. AS was
the directory of last year, the new
book is handsomely bound under a
yellow cover. In the forward part
is Man.. g. Smiths map OF the city
of Perth Amboy. Following are
church, business, lodge, municipal,
street and other directories. Dire
tories of business men, Roosevelt,
Fords, Keasbey, Port Reading, Sc
warren and Woodbridge follow that

ments, and he suggested an amend
ment excluding these improvements
from taxation.
Mr.. Edwards called the attention
of the committee to the amount of
taxes paid by the railroad companies
in this state. He said that the av-
erage taxes paid by the railroad COM
panies in country outside the state
was $3.50 a mile, while In New Jer-
sey they pay an Average OF $4,000
a mile. The total amount Of rail-
road taxes in this state Is annually
about $7,000,000. He argued that
this was another reason for not put
ting all this burden upon the rail-
road companies. Other speakers
wanted the division made SIS per cent
of the cost upon the railroads and
35 per cent upon the state and the
municipalities.
At the conclusion of the hearing
Chairman Egan said he would con-
suit with Acting Governor Fielder,
the father of the bill, as to some of
the amendments proposed by the
speakers. This means that nothing
will be done towards reporting the
Fielder bill In the Assembly for at
least day or two
