Remark:
From sketches by E. Jump. Mama: "Well, girls, tell me all about the lecture." -- Lucy: "Oh, mama, isn't this funny?" reads, "in the manufacture of ice creams, the object is rapidly to deprive water of its latent heat and reduce it to a crystalline solid." -- Amelia: "How it makes one's mouth water. I call it a 'crystalline delight!' " -- Mamma: "My dear, I never heard of latent heat; it must be 'Patent Heat.' I know somebody advertises a Patent Freezing Machine; but Heat's a funny name for a refrigerator."
