NO MORE BURNED FINGERS

Massachusetta Man Invents Cooking Utensil That Will Be Ha tied With bellght. An ingenious little cooking utensil that will save the cook a burned finger or two has fsen' designed by “a Massachusetts man, lit consists of a baking pan with'a lifting attachment by which it can be carried about without touching the hot pan, even under the protection of a cloth. The oppo-

site sides of the pan are turned down to form grooves. A piece, of strong wire is bent into a handle and the two ends form long prongs that can be thrust through the groves on the sides of the pan. The prongs are bent slightly downward at the points so they will not slip out too easily, but will afford a purchase on the groves when the pan is to be drawn out of the oven. Even with a cloth for protection it is sometimes difficult to get hold of the pan when the bread or cake has risen to the edge.

Makes Hot Pans a Joy.
