To all whom'z't may concern Be it known that I, OLE JACOBSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hamilton, in the county of Butler and State of Oh1o, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Egg Boilers and Timers; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use,the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

This invention relates to new and useful improvements in egg boilers and ltimers.

The object ofthe invention is to provide a device of the above character, which is simple in construction and is combined with an apertured receptacle, in which the eggs are placed and which receptacle may be conveniently placed within any boiler or vessel usually found in a kitchen.

The invention further consists in the construction of the handle portion of the receptacle and in the locating of a timin device at a convenient point in the body 0 said handle.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure ,1 is a side elevation of my egg boiler and timer; Fig. 2 is a detail view of the support for the hour glass; Fig.3 is a detail view of an ordinary alarm clock which may be used for timin the e gs are su Lected to boiling water.

1, esignates t e egg receptacle which is provided with perforations 2 and3 throughout its sides and bottom for the water to pass through when the receptacle isremoved from the boiler in which it is placed with the eggs.

the period. during which 4 designates a wire handle extending around the rim of the receptacle and upwardly in the form of a bow, and thence in the form of a handle 5. It is madeby twisting the wire at a point between the bow portion and the handle portion. The paral-" lel sides of the handle portion 5 are indented or crimped as at 7, which parts are project-.

ed into apertures in the sides of a supporting plate. are turned as at 6 and-the ends 9 thereof are likewise turned. Extending from opposite sides of the elongated portions of said plate are clamps 9 which secure an hour glass 8 between the ends 9' of said plate. The plate has an opening in its body in order that the hour glass may be observed from both sides. An ordinary clock 11 with gong 12 may be mounted upon the handle 5, by means of a support 10 which is attached to the handle. .In the use of the clock, the

formation of the handle 5 is somewhat wider in order to provide for the support 10.

Having described my invention, I claim: An egg boiler consisting of a perforated receptacle, a wire extending from opposite sides thereof and terminating in an up.-

wardly extended handle portion consisting of two parallel members crimped at points intermediate the ends of said handle, a perforated supporting plate secured to said crimped portions, and a timing device supported on said plate and fiewablefrom op- 'posite sides of the handle, as herein shown and described.

In testimony whereof I afiix my signature, in presence of two witnesses.
