The most ancient met hud of MAX
ing ice is practiced in India. Holes
are made III the ground, dry straw
is put at the bottom of these, and on
it at the close of the day arc placed
pans of water, which are left until
the next morning, when the ice that
is found within tic pans is collected.
This industry is carried on only in
districts where the ground is dry
and will readily absorb the vapor
given off from the water in the pans.
The freezing, of course, is due to tho
great amount of heat absorbed hy
the vapor i'll passing from its liquid
to its gaseous form.
Another process was practiced in
tho days Of ancient Rome, when tho
wealthy are said to have had their
wines cooled by having the bottles
placed i'll water int which saltpeter
WAS thrown, the bottles being the
while rotated.
Dr. Cullen i'll 1855 discovered that
tho evaporation of water could DO
facilitated by tho removal of the
pressure of the atmosphere, and that
by DONG this water could bo frozen.
Nairn, i'll 1711, discovered that sui
phurlc acid would absorb tho vapor
! OF water if placed in Il second vessel
/ separate from that containing tho
water. but connected with it. This
discovery he Put to use i'll 1910 hy
constructing an apparatus for alb
sorbing tho vapor of the water that
it was desired to cool or freeze This
apparatus greatly facilitated the
freezing operations of vacuum
freezing machine.
jacob Perkins was tho father of
what is now known az the compress
sion system, having invented the
first E:achino Of tho kind in 1884
and as these machines, improved,
are at the present day more in use
than any other, Il description Of
Perkins patent may be of interest
His apparatus consisted of an insu-
lated vessel. in which was inclosed n
second vessel containing ether, va.
por pump, worm and worm tub, a
tube between the second vessel and
tho pump, another between the pump
and the worm, u third between tho
worm and the bottom of the other
vessel and the necessary valves.
AS afterward constructed, the ap-
paratus was made up Of "a jacketed
pan, within which was the water to
be cooled; an insulated box in which
was placed the pan, q pump to ex-
tract the vapor from the jacket, a
wormin which the vapor was con
densed after it left the pump, Il worm
tub containing cold water to cool
the worm and by means of the lat
ter the vapor within it, and pipes
connecting the topof the pan jacket
to the pump, tho pump with the
upper end of the worm, and the low
or end of the worm with the under
side Of the pan jacket. Tho refrig-
Grating agent used with this appa-
ratus was one derived from tho de-
structive distillation of caoutchouc.
James Harrison improved upon ia
cob Perkins apparatus in 1866, and
it has been further improved by
many others since. = Cussier' IS

Why He Winked at His Father.

Not long since a smart seven
yehr-ol son Of our preacher, after ser.
vice was over, and the family had re-
turned home from church, said, "Papa,
do you ever look at me while you are
eaching?"
ehe father, thinking that he was
little hurt by supposed neglect, said
Certainly, my son; I often look a.
you and think Of you when / am
preaching"
But to-day you did not notice me
at ALL"
''Yes, I did, son, several times,
said the father.
"Well, papa, did you see me wink
at you two or three times?"
"No, my son; what did you wink
at me for when was preachipg?"

The spectacle Of putting $50, ,0OO,-

some time was occupied by counsel in
expIaining the mattor of supple

also for the city had hnnded him the

that Mr. Hilles had not received a copy
