The dumbbell, we are told, ''is sent out from the factory completely charged and ready for use. The air is entirely exliausteany, Henry Penn says: "We feel that the florists throughout the covintry might be interested in the latest and most scientific type of refrig- erators and cooling systems in Boston, as installed in our store. The arrangement fnr tlie storage and display of the 'lowers Avas left to the refrigerating experts. The two large show cases on the first floor and the two-compart- ment general storage refrigerator in the liasement are coriled by the new system of refrigeration, using the Audiffren niachine. This truly remarkable eqnip- Hiont differs from all other types of re- frigerating machines in that the inecdianisni is totally eiudosei] ami sealed up against th(> possibility nt' trouble or tamjieriiig. Alsd the Audiffren uses no ammonia, a fact of vital importance to florists. ''The refrigerating ]dant is not oper- ated continuouslv. Tt is controlled au- ^i-fj^^*—^-.
