PATENT ICE PITCHER.

THIS PITCHER is similar in appearance, and
L equally convenient 10 those in common use, but
is so constructed that when the cover is down every
part OF its contents is dOubly encased from the at
mosphere, the effect of which is that one and half
pounds of ice placed in three pints of water will
last nearly seven hours, whereas, the same weight
# ice in like quantity and temperature of water
in a common pitcher, only lasts about two hours
Being composed of metal, it is Of course more du-
rabIe than the ordinary china pitcher This, taken
co1nexon with the cOnve nience and luxury al
always having ice-water on hand, and the immense
saving Of ice, renders il decidedly the most eco
nornica pitcher now in use.
