that would accrue from a judicious cheap repairing of the old bridges, would be such that but a very small increase tax levy would suflice to build* permanent bridges, which would require, say tivo or eight years to put them all J up on the durable basis. Respectfully, L. MeAUTIIUR. . - ' A Handsome Income for an Energetic Lady or 1 Uentloman. < - The Ohio Scale Works of Cincinnati have just i completed and are now introducing to the public a Handsomely finished Family Scale, an nrtide that has always been needed in every household, aud in a communication addressed to the publishers of this paper the proprietors ask us ' to refer them to some reliable party, to intro- ' duce it for them to the people of this County. It is very seldom that a new article steps so suddenly into universal l'avor. House-keepers are 1 loud in its praise. It is always ready, there arc no weights to get lost or to be hunted up, is reliable, and will not get out of order. The description of them is a handsome base surmount i ted by a column in which works a spiral spring i so scientifically adjusted as to weigh anything up to twelve pounds with perfect accuracy; on the top of the column is the platform 011 which \ the articles to be weighed arc placed, and they 1 liavo an adjustable indicator so that you can take th# tare of any vessel you may uso in weighing, giving you the exact net weight.? Housekeepers at once sec their value in weigh- ; ing fruits, sugars and other ingredients used in j preserving, cooking, etc. or in testing the weights of purchases from others. The Scales are made of all Brass, arc highly polished and are finished in a skillful manner. They arc very attractive and take the eye of every one who sees them. It seems to us that nearly every family in this county will want one, and is certainly a rare opportunity for some smart and energetic party to pick up a nice little income during the next few months. The Company has agents in other counties who arc easily making from ?6 (HI to 1?t> Ott per day selling thcin, and we would recommend parties in need of employment to drop the OHIO SO A Id". WORKS, No. 125 and 127 Central Avenue, Cincinnati, <)., a Postal Card, and . all information etc., will be cheerfully given them by mentioning our paper. G-5t.
