Needed Right Now.

A popular article of household furni-
ture among Americans in the Philip
pines is said to be the "refrigerating
stove" This stove is designed to keep
people cool instead Of hot, explains
the New York Press. Just as we heat
our houses in the states in winter
with coal stoves, SO the wanderer who
has set up housekeeping in the Philip
pines cools his house with a cold
stove. The cold stoves are made to
look something like IN ordinary stove,
and, being fed with ammonia and
chemicals, give out radiations Of cold
waves instead of heat. One can i'm
agine a family gathering around the
refrigerating stove for GOODNESS on a
hot night in the Philippines just as
on a cold night in the states they had
been accustomed to gather around the
parlor stove for warmth.
