Now fill the building full of loose cobblestones up to the height of the wall; This not only furnishes drainage, but it forms an air chamber, breaking the connection with the earth, and prevents melting from the bottom. Sawdust can be placed on top* Of these cobblestones and tramped In to form a smooth surface for the placing of the Ice. Some people may think that putting this foot <gjf loose cobble stones in the bottom is unnecessary, and yet experience has proved to me that It Is a necessary part of the Ice house. For sills for the buildtap fwopar use 2 by 6 inch stuff, laying It double, so that the comers can be lapped and the building made strong. Set up 2 by 0 joists eighteen Inches apaM Beard on the outside with coin mem kiartM then put on paper and cover the paper with common clapboards or ship-lap. The inside can simply be eetted up with any good lumber, avoiding, cracks as much as possible, so that sawdust will not get into the space between the studding. This forms a deed for space of six Inches. It is not nueaaary to put building paper on the fastis, be cause when the sawdust Is peeked against the sheathing It mafcaa m aftr tight space. For a roof one can use afctojtea er any kind of modern roofing. The out side doors should be double and placed in the end of the building, wKh build ing paper between. The bottom door should extend from the ground Sp near ly to the plate, or, if this is Ua^pght tao long a door for convenience, Vvro doors may be used. Then above the piste, which will be ?n the peak of the build ing, a door should be made; because the space for the lower door wifi be filled in filling the house. Place the Ice, leaving a six er eight inch apace between the ice and the In side of the building. Place tte cakes on edge rather than flat, because they are then more easily taken out In front of the doorway simply put In short boards which fit In evea with the inside sheathing.

WHIPS OF FLAME. PlrtvrvRqae and PaBsllnff Fire Dnnr« of the Indiana. Mysterious are many of the ways of the red man. Dr. Matthews of Wash ington gave an Interesting account of a fire dance which" he was fortunate enough to witness In the far west. The sitectatom were seated about a large open space. In the center of whJch burn ed a ruddy fire. Suddenly sounded a loud blowing of buffalo horns, mingled with a strange cry like the call of a sand hill crane. Nearer and nearer it came, and then there bounded Into the circle ten men, naked to the waist and bearing long bundles of shredded cedar hark. Round and round the fire danced the little procession, chanting and waving the flexible fagots. After some time the leader abruptly stopped and lighted his fagot of bark. The others followed bis example. Now began a wild race. At first the Indians kept close, spitting upon each other’s back a substance supposed to have medicinal virtue. Soon they ran without concert, the long, brilliant streamer* of flame flaring behind them. As they sped over the ground round the circle they applied the fiery brands to the bodies of themselves and com rades. Not a man turned as the vig orous, burning blows descended on his naked back. Sometimes they would seize the brand In their hands and rub It over their flesh as If it were a sponge and they were giving them selves a bath of flames. On they danced and whipped and rubbed until all seemed a dazzling ring of tire to tbe onlookers. And were there sore and blistered backs the next day under the careless ly worn blankets? Apparently not. for Dr. Matthews saw and talked with the actors directly after the dance, and they seemed to experience no discom fort His explanation of the secret does not include the mysterious compound which the Indians spat upon each other. That he thinks, was probably of no valde. But cedar bark Ignites at a low tem perature, and the white earth with which tbe men were thickly coated was an excellent nouconductor.—Youth’s Companion.

The power of the eye to adjust lt,self to varying intensities of light is Illus trated by Dr. Nansen’s account of his experience on his north .polar expedi tion lu the winter of 18d5-90. He was determined to keep a continuous tber-. memetric record during the months of darkness, and whenever the moon was above the horizon he and his assistants found no difficulty In reading the In struments, which were placed In the crow’s nest of the ship’s mast. Bnt at the time of new moon they had only starlight, because they could JMt af ford tuiose tbe ell needed for on out door lamp.
