Caring for The lCebOx.

The ice season is approaching,
and, considering the dents that
were made in the icemen III Toledo
and other towns last yeai, it seems
to behoove the iceman to go into
literature and explain himself.
Recognizing this, a firm in Worces-
ter, Mass, announc9es bravely I:
I'VE are in the ice business be-
cause we are naturally of a sensi-
tiev disposition and wish to lead a
quiet life. Then, too I'VE like TO
have the good opinion of the COM
munity, and are assured that, with
the possible ecxpetion of the plumb
eri, there is no more popular or well
come guest than the iceman.
There is much to recommend the
ice businesses much that we hes
itate to enumerate it's advantages
for fear that everybody will want
to 60 into it. In the first place
it is a matter of public knowledge
that ice does not cost anything,
and therefore all money received
for it is clear profit. We have
warehouses; in which we can store
ice for nothing, because they are
useless for any other purpose.
And as for filling them, there are
thousands of men who will do it
merely for the exercise. There be-
ing no competition, we can charge
any price we please, bat the peo-
pie find no fault with us on this ac-
count, because they know that ev-
erything we make above the bare
cost of handling goes into charity.
Another pleasant feature of the ice
business is that there is no depreci-
alton of stock held over. We like
our business because we never hear
any complaints.
In addition to the bon mots, the
iceman advises people that the way
personal temperature and melt the
entire neighbor hood when the bill
comes, but to put your ice in an air.
tight refrigerator With the chamber
always filled to the top. Don't put
anything like watermelons, Jumps
chickens in the ice chamber. Keep
it sacred to the ice. Boil the ice
box at least once a week and roast
the hired girl between times. Open
the door as seldom as possible and
don't imag inc you are living in {
sawmill. Shut the door after you.
BY carefully outstanding even Z
small piece of ice, you may make il
last for years. Another good idea
is to empty the dripping pan every
summer, for even the best-treatec
ice will melt and run over the
edge of the pan, soaking off acres
of plaster in the laundry below
i By observing these rules and eating
at a restaurant you may have COG
refrigerated food all summer. M IN
