A GOOD INCOME FOR SOME ENERGETIC LADY
OR GENTLEMAN. The Ohio Scale Works OF
Cincinnati, have just completed and are now
introducing to the public. under the title of the
Universal Family Scale, an article that has
always been needed in everv household and,
in a communication addressed to the publishers
OF this paper, the proprietors ask US to refer
them to some reliable party who will represent
them in introducing 1t to the people of this
county. 1t is very seldom that q new article
steps 30 suddenly into universal favor. House
keepers are loud IN its praise, for 1t possesses
the merit OF being always ready; there are no
weights to hunt up aud adjust is always relia-
be-will not get out OF order-and is an orna-
ment to the kitchen. The description Is simply
base surmounted by o hollow column, in
which works spiral spring, 80 scientifically
gagged and adjusted, as to weigh anything up
to twelve pounds with perfect accuracy. On
the top OF the column is the platform on which
the articles to be weighed are placed. By the
mere turning OF screw, the tare OF the DISH
plate, or whatever you may use IN weighing, is
taken out, and the net weight given House
keepers at once see its value IN weighing sugar
or fruit, in making preserves or jellies or IN
testing the butchers or grocers weight and
the thousand and one cases that occur where
something that should be weighed accurately
is necessary. The scales are Handsomely
painted and bronzed. and are sold at about
one third the price charged for the inferior
scales OF the same Capacity. Ii seems to us
that nearly every family n this country would
want one, and 1t is certainly rare opportunity
for some smart and energetic party TO pick ur
quite nice little income during the next few
months. The Company has agents in no moro
favorable locations who are making S5 to sc
per day, and there are certainly several in this
vicinity who can do as well. We recommend
such to address the Ohio Scale Works, Elm and
George streets, Cincinnati o., and all informa-
ton, &C.. Will be cheerfully gwen them bv
mentioning our paper.
