What Everybody Wants!

LIVERY family wants pure ice, frozen at their
q own door, IRON pure spring. well or cistern
water.
Mr.. W. X. Close, Of Bangor, Me- has just pat
ented an invention which will enable every family
in the land to supply itself with pure ice at the
most trihisg expense: the water used can be &c.
lected either from springs wells or cisterns, ana
thus insure the perfect purity OF the Ice tho Ice s
frozen in regular. uniform cakes, smooth and
even all sides, much more convenient for
handling aud less liable to catch and retain dirt
than Ice which has been cut and is rough.
For shipping purposes the ice can be frozen on
the wharf and shipped without expense of cut
ting, hauling or storing. In cases where there is
q liability that the ice in a river may be tempered
with and injured for shipping purposes, the water
may be pumped and frozen tree from snow and II
less expense than it can be cut from the river. In
fact, as y matter OF simple economy, water may
he taken from most Of the thousands of rivers
and streams at their outlets on our coast and con
dacted to wharyes and frozen within easy
reach OF the vessels tackles and in most of these
water courses dams and wster.power for pumping
are already constructed and available.
In locations which are surrounded with san
water and where ice can only be obtained by haul
ing long distances, IL can be manufactured from
any little rivulet. from spring, well or cistern
water on the spo; for all domestic purposes and
even for shipment.
Any parties wishing to use the above invention
can obtain full particulars by addressing
