The following recipe for home made ice
may be found of use: Take a cylindrical
vessel and pour 81 ounces of commercial
sulphuric acid and IL ounces of water into
it, and then add l ounce of powdered sui
plate of soda. In the center of this mix
ture place a smaller vessel containing the
water to be frozen; then cover the vessel,
and, if possible revolve the whole with a
gentle motion. In a few minutes the
water in the small vessel will be converted
into ice. The same mixture can be used a
second or a third time for making a block
of ice. The operation should, if possible,
be performed in a cool place-in a cellar,
for example.

amateur gardeners. "a Mercenary Young
Woman" by Robert G.. Graham is a very
clever story and is admirably illustrated

ious woman furnished a parlor with won.
