How to Clean Your Ice Box.

The August Woman's Home Compan-
ion says:
"You will want pan of water boiling
on the stove, bottle brush, and clean
| ing cloths. Choose time when the ice
is reduced to small piece. Take it out
and wrap it in clean towel or absorbent
paper. Take out the drain pipe and the
trays on which the ice rests. Scrub them
with soap and water, using the bottle
brush for the drain pipe, and then put
them into the boiling water. Let them
boil while you wipe out the ice compart-
ment with cold water-no soda will be
necessary, for no grease goes into this
compartment-then follow the damp
cloth with dry one. Take the trays
and drain pipe out of the boiling water
and drop them into pan of cold water
to chill. Wipe them as dry as possible,
return them to the ice compartment and
replace the ice. Drying the ice trays
may seem foolish, but it is good economy
Of ice and food as well as good bacteriolo-
gy. Empty and clean your drip pan, or
If your refrigerator is connected with a
drain in the floor clean that. Remember
that water in the drip pan is simply
stagnant water in a dark place, a favor
lite medium for all sorts of organisms.
A very little chloride of lime will help
to keep it wholesome, but frequent clean
ing with hot water is better"

DIR. Roy A. Young, now practicing in
Claremont, n. H., but until recently a
Chester physician, has been granted a
patent on an invention of what he terms
dirigible headlights for automobiles. The
invention can be attached to any auto
mobile and will cause the lamps to be
turned in the direction of the front
wheels. For instance, if car is being
turned to the right, the right hand light
will be turned with the right hand wheel,
while the left light win remain pointed
straight ahead. This novel action is
brought about by an ingenious combina-
ton of steering knuckle sockets, arms
and rods, the principal element being a
rod with longitudinal extending slot
for the sliding reception Of stem at
tached TO the headlight, whereby when
the wheel is turned the light turns in
one instance, but when the wheels are
turned in the opposite direction the stem
slides along the rod and allows that
lamp to remain stationary.
