Already the city begins to throng with
parties wishing to buy, lease, or rent
houses, when IT is a Well-known fact
that there are fewer houses for rent or
lease here than in, any other city OF its
size within twenty-five miles of Cincin-
natl, all on account of its healthy loca-
tion-no smoke from the city, no stink
ing ponds to spread disease, and conse-
quently very little sickness. And no
wonder the stiied people of the city run
over here the first fine day after winter
in search of suburban homes, in
which to recruit their health. Come
on and buy and build; THAT'S your only
chance TO have what you want. In this
city is the very best of schools, and bet
ter soon coming; also, churches of all
denominations, frst-class groceries and
butcher shops, finely built sTreets all
through the city, making the most lovely
promenades during the spring, summer
and fall, and It's convenience 10 the CEN
ter OF business at once stamps it as the
most accessible, the healthiest and most
beautiful suburbs of Cincinnati.
