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. C-5t.
