The most ancient method of maxim.
ice is practiced in parts of India
Holes are made in the ground. dry
straw is put at the bottom of these.
and on it ut the close of the day are
placed pans of water which are left
Until the next morning when the ice
that is found within the pans is col
icrted. This industry is carried on
only in districts where the ground il
dry and will readily absorb the vapoi
given off from the water in the pans
The freezing. of course. is due to the
great amount of heat absorbed by the
vapor in passing from its liquid to its
gaseous form.
Another process was pi'acticed in the
day of ancient Rome when the wealthy
are said to have had their wines cool

DR.. Cullen in l1I5 discovered that
the evaporation of water could he ia

DOING this water could be frozen
Nairn in III discovered that sulphur

he put to use in 1910 by constructing
an apparatus for absorbing the vapor
Of the water that it was desired to cool

cllltated the freezing operations of a

Take string about eighteen inches

gether Pass one end through one OF
the rings OF n pair OF scissors. then
thread the other end through II and
after that through the other handle
or ring of the scissors. Now hang the
scissors up by the string, which is
knotted at the end. The trick is TO get
the string of the scissors or the scis-
sors OF the string without touching
the knotted end OF the string. IL
seems impossible. yet II IL quite easy
The way TO do II is 10 pull the loop
loose from the one handle OF the scia-
sors, pass II through the other handle
In exactly the reverse way to the way
IL was brought through In the first
place, pull II through until Il is long
enough 10 carry II over the scissors
