We are giad to note the improvements "oing

beauty and comfort of the plate. We hope to
see our streets put in thoroughly g©od .condi

mulched and wateied so as to insure.a vigor

The weather for the past week has been
charming. We scarcely believe a dime exists
that surpasses our sunny laud when robed

extension of the road is progressing finely,and
will be ready for the cars about the middle ot
March This extension when completed will
give them a rond of about eighteen miles iu
length. Large shipments of timber are con

portion of the road, and steady employment
given to about two hundred and fifty bauds.

annoyance of losing 13 of their hands after
paying their fare here from No*th Caroltr a |

business. They believe they have been en'
ticed away by som worthless fallow, Infor

in the premises projected, and ‘be hands that
have acted so be.dly summarily p>wished.
Complaints reach us occasionally bom our
f inner friends about their hands leaving )UU i
hiring to some oue else. Wc think the i. w
ou'ght to be more strict, and these farm hands
aud turpentine laborers held to .their contracts
under suitable penalties.

A HANDSOME IACOME
FOIi AN
ENERGETIC LADYju- GENTLEMAN
The Ohio Scale Works of Cincinnati have
just completed and are now introducing to Umv
public a handsomely finished family scale, ntt
article that has always betn needed iu every
household, uud in a communication addressed
to the publishers of this paper the proprietors
ask us to refer them to some reliable party to
introduce it for them to the people of this
county. It is very seldom that anew article
steps so suddenly into universal tavor. House
keepers are loud iu its praise, it is always,
ready, there are no weights to get lost or to be
hunted up, is reliable and will not get out ol
order. Ihe description of them is a handsome
base susmounted by a column in which works
a spiral spring so scientifically adjuster! as to
weigh anything up to twelve pounds, with per
fect accuracy; on the top of the column is the
platform on which the articles to be weighed
are placed, and they have an adjustable indi
cator so that you can take the tare of any ves
sel you may use in weighing, giving you the
exact weight. Housekeepers at once see their
value in weighing fruits, sugars, and other In
gredients mtu in preserving, ©making. etc., or
in testing the weights of purchases from others.:.
The Scales are made of brass, are highly
polished, and arc finished in a skillful manner,
l’hey are very attractive and take the eye of
every one who sees theux
It seems to us that nearly every family in
this county will want one, and is certainly a
rare opportunity for some sturrt and "energetic
party to pick up quite a nice little income dur
ing the next tew mouths. The Company has
ageu‘3 iu in other counties who are easily mak
ing from $5.00 to $6,00 per day selling them,
and we would recommend parties in need of
employment to drop the Ohio Scalr Works,
No. 125 and 127 Central Avenue, Cincinnati,
0., a postal card, and all information, etc,,
will be cheerfully given them by mentioning
001 paper.
