A Handsome Ineome for an Energetio Lady or * i Gentleman. - The Ohio Scale Works of Cincinnati have just completed and are now introducing to the publio a Handsomely finished Family Scale, an article that has always beeu needed in every household, and in a communication addressed to the publishers of this paper the proprietors nsk us to refer them to some reliable party, to introduce it for thorn to the people of this Couuty. It is very seldom that a new article slens so sud denly into universal favor. Housc-kccpcrs arc loud in its praiso. It is always ready, there arc no weights to get lost or to be hunted up, is reliable, and-will not gel out of order. The description of them is a handsome base surmount ted by a column in which works a spiral spring so scientifically adjusted as to weigh anything up to twelve pounds with perfect accuracy; on the top of the column is the plntform on which the articles to be weighed are placed, and they havo an adjustable indicator so that you can take lb# tare of any vessel you may uso in weighing, giving you the exact net weight.? Housekeepers at once see their value iu weighing fruits, sugars and other ingredients used in preserving, cooking, etc. or in testing the weights of purchases from others. The Scales are made of all Ilross, are highly polished and are finished in a skillful manner. They are very attractive and take the eye of very 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 somo smnrt and energetic party to pick up a nice little income during tho next few months. Tho Company has agents in other counties who aro easily making from $o IK) to ^ $0 00 per day selling them, and wo would reW commend parties in ncodof employment to drop the OHIO SCALE WORKS, No. 125 and 127 Central Avenue, Cincinnati, O., a Postal Card, and all information etc., will be cheerfully given ilicm by mentioning our paper.
