Make Your Iceless Refrigerator.
Do not let the food spoil! Ildre's
a way to keep it cool for $3.17, and
it's nothing but a wooden frame with
a cloth around it. Any mart girl
can build ore.
The ioless refrigerator is a fine
thing, simple and cheap. Missionar.
ie in India diseovered that if they
were to live in the intense heat of
that region they must etreteh wet
sheets across the doors and windowe,
and the hot winds blowing through
made the rooms comfortably cool.

you live where ice is hated to get or
if yet: have no lee horse er cellar or
even if you have a evil cellar, save
dope with an iceless refrigerator.
There are four corner posts, 'eneli
3 ft. in, high, and made of 1x2 in,
haulier. Th shelves should be mule
of 1x12 in. lumber and the corners
Famed ()et 1x2 in. to fit the corner
poets. The ehelves are 15 in. long.
The middle eheves may be made of
etrips or of poultry netting so as
to let the air through.
An easy way to frame it ht your
mind is to "play" you are going to
build two ladders, one en each side.
The steps of the ladder are the cross
bars at sides of refrigerator. These
are Vet in. each. The top bars should
be 1 in. from the top of the pasts.
They should fit between them, aid the
nails (8 -penny finish nails) should be
driven through the posts into the end
of the bars.
The second "step" should be 12 in.
below the first and the third le' in,
below the •second. This makes the
fourth bar 15 in. below the third.
Now when you have the two ladders
or sides done, you can fit your lower
shelf right on and nail it, then the
next and the next and last of all the
top shelf. To brace the whole frame
there really should be° •a cross bar
under the top shelf in front and back,
and the same uncle- the lower shelf,
also. The door is too simple to need
description.
The pan was made to order to fit
the top and cost $1,00 but you can
use a bread baking pan that fits snug-
ly. Or this can be tin, painted and
then enameled to prevent rusting.
The whole frame should be painted
to keep it from warping. A wire
screen may be put around the sides
and on the door if you wish to make
it stouter and to exclude insects.
A cover of canton flannel, burlap, or
duck is rnade to fit the frame. Put
the smooth side out if canton flannel
is used. It will require about three
yardsofmatenial. This cover is but-
toned around the top of the frame
and down the side on which the door
is not hinged, using buggy hooks and
eyes or large -headed tacks and eye-
lets worked in the material. On the
front side arrar.ge the hooks on the
top of the door instead of on the
frame and also fasten the cover down
Ithe latch side of the door, allowing a
wide hem of the material to overlap
the place where the door closes. The
door can then be opened without un-
buttoning the cover. The bottom of
the cover shoals' extend down into the
lower pan. Four double steeps, which
taper to 8 or 10 inches in width, are
sewed to the upper part,of the cover.
•These strips forrn wicks that dip over
into the upper pan. •
The ice -less refrigerator has the ad-
vantage of not drying out. The cloth
folded into the pan of water at the
top acts the same as the lamp wick
which draws the kerosene up to the
'flame. The cloth around the refriger-
ator draws the water just like a wick
and the cloth Is kept wet all th,e way
down to the bottom. All you have to
do is keep the pan filled with water,
just as you must keep your lamp filled
with eil.
the icelees refrigerator should ee
placed where the air is in motion.

Early in the morning throw ono

fairly up elose it tightly', shutting out
every possible degree of heat. Im-

o'clock and the most intense heat of
the day will then be passed.
After supper allow th,arn to play
in the yard until dark, and give'them
•a special bed -time treat either of
fruit, ice cream, a cold glass of some
kind of fruitage, or any delicacy
easily prep-ared.
How To Do Things,.
Ice cream is a real food and not a
delicacy. Families having their own
freezers should serve ice-cream often
for dessert. Its cost is no greater
than that of pie and cake and it furn-
ishes nourishment.
Those who go picnieldng should'boil
all drinking water and milk before
drinking. People who have been auto-
mobiling or picnicking in an unfam-
iliar neighborhood often bring home
in their bodies typhoid -fever germs
which develop later.
Mint sauce can be made now for
winter use. Gather the leaves when
• dry and clean; chop finely, put in a
• bottle and fill with vinegar; cork well.
When used pour out the quantity de-
sired for flavoring, and add to it more
• vinegar and sugar to taste.
During hot weather give the baby
all the cool water—not ice water—.he
HINTS FOR INVE'NTORS.
Suggestions That Will Keep Their
Brains From Becoming Ossified.
That "nothing be impoesible" is one
of the spinet popular of theories. ace
corded by nearly unanimous eonsent.
Anyone who would controvert it would
expose himself to the accusation that
he was behind the times. an old. fogy,
a person of narrow mentality, one who
failed to comprehend the unlimited
mastery of invintive genius.
Naturally, we are reluctant to invite
such accusation. However, we deem it
to be not out of order to submit t'par-
tial list of pruducts of inventive gen-
ius whose possibilitity, from time to
tlnie deelnred, remalasoeeos-
trated by accomplishment. Those that
just now oecur to me are;
Power for industrial purposes de-
rived from tidal movements.
Storage of the sun's summer heat
for uso in winter.
Extraction of gold, in paying quanti-
ties, ,from the waters of the ocean.
Perpetual motion.
Storage of winter atmosphere for
use as a substitute for ice in the sum-
mer.
A cheaper substitute for gasoline.
A device for supervision of the
opeation of the law of gravitation in
case of accident to aircraft.
Communiciation with the inhabi-
tants of Mars.
The harnessing of atmospheric elec-
tricity.
Prevention of earthquakes.
Production of rainfall when it is
needed.
Accurate weather predictions.
Doubtless, in many minds there are
many other theoretical possibilities
whose realization would be. of great
benefit to mankind. To avert contro-
versy, we shall not dispute the asser-
tion that everything is possible, but
patiently await further practical de-
monstrations of its truth.
