tions are overcome by providing a
combination ice house and refriger-
ator, as shown in the illustration.
The ice house, in this case, is built
right against the outside kitchen wall
and is as deep as the basement. The
roof extends above the ground just
enough to permit one to put tie ice
in or take it out, small door being
provided for this purpose. The bot
tom of the ice pit is covered with a
layer of gravel, and drain is pro-
vided to carry of the water, a screen
being fitted over the drain to prevent
any gravel from getting in. A foor
is built en- the same level as the
kitchen floor, and if desired a small
door may be provided in the wall to
permit entrance from the kitchen. A
trapdoor is, of course, provided in the
floor and is kept closed to keep the
warm air from getting into tie pit. A
layer of heavy tar paper over thisfoor
covers all the cracks and furnishes ad-
ditional insulation. The refrigerator
is simply an ordinary dumb waiter
which can be lowered into the ice pit.
This opens into the kitchen and the
Lift is raised by means of a crank or
counterweight. The usual dumb
waiter construction is used. This
method provides lower temperature
for the food than can be obtained in

Ten Thousand Kinds of Fish
Are Found in Ocean

About 10000 species of fish are
known to science including some that
walk and climb trees, and others that
make vocal sounds. In South Amer
lea, is a kind of catfish that growls
like a dog, the sound being distin-
guishabla a hundred feet distant. The
mud shippers, found at the mouths
of African and Asiatic rivers, walk
about when the tides recede. With
the aid of their fins and tail, they can
hop for three feet and mere when
pursued. The tree-climbiLg variety OF
perch has q Water-storage organ on
either side of its head, to keep its
gills moist when it travels on land.
There are species of fish that carry
their eggs in their heads and shoot
or "angle" for their prey. The nligra-
tory habits of other kinds are widely
different. Eels and salmon, for in
stance, are known to travel enormous
distances to and from their breeding
grounds.
