There Is a large region of sexual

There are three types of men

THE HOUSEHOLD

Edited by ANNE RITTENuOUsE.

We often think that we Americans
have a sort OF monopoly on ice
drinks and iced desserts. And it is
perfectly true, of course, that we do
eat more ices and drink more iced
beverages in the summer than do any
other people, perhaps
But altho some stories say that
cook in the presidential household of
George Washington first concocted
a cook in Dolly Madison's kitchen
who did it, still this country cannot
take credit for originating the iced
drink idea o. even the idea of cold
storage and refrigeration.
The Romans, in fact, iced their
wine and other drinks. 1t is said
that altho the culinary art of icing
things was known to the Romans. the
&c INJURIES after the fall of Rome lost
the art, and it was not until about
three centuries ago that France re-
vived the art. And the first cold
storage plant was established in 1875.
And without cold storage, of course,
anything like present day market con-
ditions were impossible. To be sure,
such despots the old emperors of
Peru, who were fortunate enough to
live in 1 very narrow mountainous
country where summer and winter
were both always present. at different
sea levels. could have summer deli
seasons. But most of mankind had
to content himself with such gifts of
| fruit and vegetables az nature pro-
vided.
Francis Bacon. the English scien-
t:st, was interested in the idea of cold
storage. it is said. and in March, in
/ the year 1925. left his coach to get
snow. with which he stuffed a fowl.
| His last letter said that the fowl was
| iE good condition and that the ex-
| pertinent was turning out well. but
unfortunately Bacon caught cold while
] getting the snow and died of bron-
Chitis on April 9.
! Pepys. the English dia rist who
seems to have a word to say on every
subject, wrote in December. 1868:
| Fowl killed in December Alderman
Barker said he did buy. and, putting
| into the box under his sledge, did for
! set to take them out to eat till April
next and they then were found there
end were. thru the frost. as sweet and
! fresh and eat as well as at first

New York.-Looking at the situa-
ton from the point of Wastage, one
wonders why there are so many sep
arate shirtwaists in every shop. They
are heaped by the dozens on the
shelves: they are mounted on wooden
figures; they are spread over coun-
tiers by the hundreds, and\ yet. when
one goes in the street. into restaurants,

no sign of a separate blouse, except
that here and there one sees such a
waist peeping from beneath the lapels
of the coat. or one catches a glimpse
of a white cuff when the wrist of the
