Equipment.
More than one refrigerator or cooler
can be operated by single mechanical
unit This saves duplication of equip
ment. In many cases the same COM
pressor that operates a household model
refrigerator may also be used to OPP
crate water cooling equipment. There
are individual water coolers which can
be placed in kitchen, breakfast nook, or
other convenient place, and used with
CITY or bottled water, or you can have
a tank-type cooler installed and con-
nected to drinking water outlets in the
kitchen. bath room and other parts OF
your home. You may also have cooler
with special compartment for cooling
beverages If you wish. Then there Is
the room cooler, which will reduce both
temperature and humidity. It con-
stantly circulates refrigerated air
throughout any room in which 1t Is
placed. With the room cooler you can
cool your living room or bed room to a
comfortable temperature In Summer
months. It decreases the humidity by
removing excessive moisture.

green tea cubes or an orange slice in
black tea cubes. Serve one or two cubes,
depending upon the size, to each glass

quire only cutting and placing on the
